Windows 1809 Ent. Error after Upload to FOG

@butch2861 Be sure you followed the fog client recommendations on the wiki page: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOG_Client#FOG_Client_with_Sysprep
In sure when you create your golden image disable the fog client service and then capture the image. In your setupcomplete.cmd file reenable the fog client service. The issue is the fog client starts doing its bits before WinSetup/OOBE finishes causing a botched deployment with the error you mentioned.

@george1421 I seen that in another post and have it in there to try it out…Thanks for the reply George…I’ll let you know how it went.

@butch2861 90% of the times it forgetting to disable the fog client before image capture. The other 10% of the time I’ve seen driver issues cause the workstation to unexpectedly reboot causing that error. If you can’t find the problem, there are log files in c:/Windows/Panther that may help explain the reboot (if its not FOG related). Mount that failed deployment disk on another computer to inspect the files.

@george1421 Sounds good I’ll give that a try if it fails again.

@george1421 I usually disable / STOP the Fog Service in Services before I run sysprep and I do a shutdown after sysprep and then when the pc starts it is captured by Fog to do the upload and that goes good until the PC restarts the 1st time and I get the error I described.

I still don’t get if you mean the PC you pull the image from or the one you deploy to?!

@Sebastian-Roth After you run sysprep on a pc and upload the Image to the Fog Server the next thing that happens is the pc reboots and then the Fog Server loads the image just uploaded BACK to the pc you uploaded it from; almost like testing the uploaded image to the pc it came from as a test that it works.

@Sebastian-Roth sorry just read your message more slowly…the pc I am uploading the image from to the server is the one giving that msg…
-
@butch2861 I guess image type is set to resizable, right? So it seems like FOG is somehow messing up the source disk layout?!?!

Hi there
I was wondering, does the pc with the “golden” image restart and install correctly if you dont capture and deploy it?
Cause if it doesn’t that might mean that FOG is not involved in the problem at all - the error message I have had as well at some points, not sure what caused them then.
