Description
So I went ahead and made the jump to 1.5.0 RC-9 this morning and ran into a couple weird things. First I decided to start from scratch and do a fresh install. Once I setup everything, I went ahead and placed my files for the postinitscripts and went ahead and tried to register a computer. Upon it loading the postinitscript, it detected some error. Stated that it was unable to register host /bin/fog.man.reg and below it had Args Passed:
So upon several attempts to fix this, I changed the fog.postinit file back to it’s original state. Had to setup the storage nodes and location plug in. Once I did all that, I noticed that replication wasn’t working in RC9. Noticed someone mentioned that in a different post. So eventually read the part to go back to RC7 which I did and replication is definitely working.
At this point I went ahead and tried to the postinitscripts on RC7 and they work fine. So my observation is the postinitscripts work in RC7 but not in RC9 and possibly in RC8. Any one else having similar issues?

Only thing I can think is it’s your postinit script. There was a change I how web calls are handled in rc9 that I suspect your postinit isn’t using. I’m going on a limb and saying your postinit just copies a new file over dealing with registration? Can you post it here. I don’t think this is a bug in fog, rather your script not updated to use the new methods.
-
For this reason I’ve moved this posting to fog problems. I really don’t think it’s a bug fog is causing, just a new method of handling that your modified scripts need to adjust for.
-
Cool. Yes my postinitscript just copies a modified version of fog.man.reg I wasn’t sure so I assumed it could be a bug. Basically I just remove questions I don’t need to answer to make the registration process quicker for the techs. Not sure if all of it will show up because it had issues before trying to post the code. Basically it’s a copy of the fog.man.reg modified to have less questions.
Which script did you want to see, the modified fog.man.reg or the fog.postinit script? Should I use the same method as before but get a new copy of fog.man.reg from RC9?
-
@jgallo Modified fog.man.reg yes please.

Sorry if this looks sloppy. Is there an easy way to copy the code completely and paste it here on the forum?
-
@jgallo In particular, to fix this for you. Edit your “curl” lines. CHange the parts that say
http://${web}...to just state${web}...(… = all the other data).

@tom-elliott
Thank you. I will test later once replication is complete on RC7 server. As for replication on RC9, is there an issue? I did notice someone mentioning to go back to RC7 on a separate post. -
@jgallo only in that case that I’m aware of. I don’t know what the problem is though I suspect it’s because firewalls are blocking access to port 21.
