Updating Database failed! Failed to open stream!

[Kevin Talbot]

@Kevin-Talbot I just made the node a master but that has not cured the problem!

[Kevin Talbot]

@Sebastian-Roth yes and master was not ticked! I have ticked it but that has not cured the issue!

@george1421 whats the size limit on uploading an image to the forum please?

[george1421]

@Kevin-Talbot your image didn’t upload but lets try this.

In the storage node definition for the remote storage node in question. There is a management user account and password. From your windows computer, can you ftp to that remote storage node using those credentials? Those credentials should match the contents of the /opt/fog/.fogsettings on the remote storage node.

[Kevin Talbot]

@george1421 Yes I can FTP with Filezilla to the node using “fog” and the very long generated password!

The DEV folder has the images under folders named by the mac addresses as it should do but clearly cannot rename and move them to the IMAGES folder?

[Kevin Talbot]

@Sebastian-Roth said in Updating Database failed! Failed to open stream!:

/var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php and /opt/fog/.fogsettings

“Check all the IPs you have in /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/config.class.php and /opt/fog/.fogsettings”

these check out fine!

@Kevin-Talbot OK let make sure we understand a few things (building a truth table).

1. The storage node in question is 172.16.220.246?
2. You were able to ftp to that storage node using the user name of fog and that long password from storage node page?
3. The image is arriving on the 172.16.220.246 server in /images/dev/<mac_address> directory?
4. We see the failed to update database message
5. The actions were it failed are in the FTP section of the code.

Here is where I’m going:

1. What does the permissions look like on the /images and /images/dev directory?
2. Does the linux user fog have rights to move/create files?
3. Do the permissions on these directories match the FOG Master Server’s directories?

I believe where the process is falling down is when the target computer connects to the fog server (node) using FTP. At this point it needs to move the images from /images/dev/<mac_address> to /images/<image_name>. It should do that with the ftp mv command. One should be able to do the same steps from a FTP client connected to the remote storage node.

@george1421

1. the node is 172.16.100.246
2. yes i was able to ftp to 172.16.100.246 using “fog” and the long password
3. the image is arriving on 172.16.100.246

[Kevin Talbot]

@george1421

1. permissions on images and dev folder

[george1421]

@Kevin-Talbot well this isn’t exactly what I asked, but from filezilla logged in as fog, can you move one of the mac directories from /images/dev to /images?

For what I asked about with permissions run these commands on both the main fog server and on the remote storage node.

ls -la /images
ls -la /images/dev
sestatus|grep -e "SELinux status"| awk '{print $3}'

Hint: If you use putty to ssh into the fog servers you can copy and paste these commands and the output.

[george1421]

@Kevin-Talbot Ok that raised another question. Why don’t we see the directories with mac addresses like you posted with the screen shot? Never mind I see that is a different host

[george1421]

@Kevin-Talbot what about selinux status?

The permissions look ok? Did you try to drag and drop a mac address directory from /images/dev to /images logged in with the fog account?

[Kevin Talbot]

@george1421 I just dragged 54bf64334d40 folder to images with no issues

[Kevin Talbot]

@george1421 the original error appears to indicate it is trying to move 54bf64334d40 on the 172.16.220.246 though?

[george1421]

@Kevin-Talbot well this is a good one. It “should be” working.

In the storage node configuration for this remote node. The image path and ftp path point to /images?

Ah that explains the not able to find the stream error. I’m looking at the kernel parameters from your post. I don’t see where its referencing 172.16.220.246. From the kernels parameters it should be interacting with 172.16.100.246

Can you post a screen shot of the storage node configuration for this remote node?
