Deployment stuck in a loop, never finishes imaging?
-
@salted_cashews Possibly this version of
filedoes not detect Zstd compressed files. Please try to manually extract the image to see if that works properly:zstdmt -d /images/PPS_v9.0R2-dev_CentOS/d1p3.img -o /images/PPS_v9.0R2-dev_CentOS/d1p3_extracted.datSee if that triggers an error or not.
Hint: You might need to install package
zsdton your FOG server. -
-dev_CentOS/d1p3.img : 4201 MB... -dev_CentOS/d1p3.img : Read error (39) : premature end -
@salted_cashews Make sure you have enough space on your disk:
df -hNow as a test, please do the same with another image file:
zstdmt -d /images/PPS_v9.0R2-dev_CentOS/d1p1.img -o /images/PPS_v9.0R2-dev_CentOS/d1p1_extracted.datFrom my point of view the manual extraction test should give you an error if the image file is fine.

@salted_cashews and @Sebastian-Roth
I believe the problem is coming from the second
-dParticularly in the naming of the image, it appears to be doing:
zstdmt -d /images/PPS_v9.0R2Then get’s a second-dfrom the-dev_CentOS/d1p1.imageSo it’s literally, I think, doing:
zstdmt -d ev_CentOS/d1p1.imgDoes this make sense?
I think the
-in the image name is causing issues parsing into the zstdmt command. The reason it doesn’t impact the Ciara_CentOS-BASEmk3 is because, likely, there is no argument for-Bis it just uses it like a normal string.Maybe we need to add some quoting to the scripting?
-
@Tom-Elliott Interesting catch, would just renaming and re-associating via the Web GUI work to fix this?
-
@salted_cashews I think so, yes. Rename the image to something without a - maybe?
-
@Tom-Elliott Renamed, giving it another shot.
-
@Tom-Elliott
Here’s the result after renaming using a “_”. We have other images using “-” and “.”, would this be best practice to avoid even if they still work fine (haven’t had this issue until now)?Image failed to restore and exited with exit code 1 (writeImage) Info: Partclone v0.2.89 http://partclone.org Starting to restore image (-) to device (/dev/sda3) note: Storage Location 10.10.100.252:/images/, Image name PPS_v9.0R2_dev_CentOS we need memory: 208468 bytes image head 4160, bitmap 200208, crc 4100 bytes Calculating bitmap...

@salted_cashews The - ultimately shouldn’t matter in the context of the imaging process.
We pipe the image into a FIFO (First In First Out) file called /tmp/pigz, then we perform the decompression and write to disk from that filename. So no, it shouldn’t matter how the image is named. In particular, howeve,r is the fact that the image keeps saying no such file or directory called d1p3.img*. The * is in the case of “split” file formatting. (d1p3.img.001, d1p3.img.002, etc…) but should work regardless of the file as long as the file exists.
Looking through the thread, it appears each time asking for information that the file name’s are varying. I’m sure you have the files though, exact comparisons would be great.
In the case of the image named PPS_v9.0R2_dev_CentOS, You have d1p1.img and d1p2.img. So why is it failing on d1p3.img?
The scripting uses the same formatting for each image file. So when it comes to partition 1 it’s running the arg passed as /image/PPS_v9.0R2_dev_CentOS/d1p1.img* as well as d1p2.img* for partition 2. So it’s really confusing to me that it keeps failing on that same file.
Can you get us files inside of /images/PPS_v9.0R2_dev_CentOS/?
ls -lhart /images/PPS_v9.0R2_dev_CentOS/I’m sure this is redundant and all, but just trying to get the full scope.

I know getting that fsck error usually means a corrupt file system correct?
-
@salted_cashews IN the d1.fixed_size_partitions, can you add
:3to the file? And see if that helps at all?I’m grasping at straws and just guessing at what may be the issue. I don’t know what is the issue right now, of course, so I don’t expect any miracles here. But just testing a theory.
-
-
@salted_cashews that works yes
-
@salted_cashews We have not looked at the partition layout yet at all. Probably just because the error did not seem to point that way. Thanks Tom for mentioning that in a chat session!
Can you please post the contents of the text files:
d1.fixed_size_partitions(before and after changing it),d1.partitions,d1.minimum.partitionsandd1.original.fstypes. -

@salted_cashews As far as I can see the partition layout looks fine. Don’t think there is anything wrong with it - at least not something obvious.
So we are back to the point where you tried to manually extract
d1p3.imgand that failed with “Read error (39) : premature end”. Asking the search engine of choice we get some interesting bug report here pointing to a fix that was pushed only a month ago. Not exactly sure but to me it sounds like this could be it. @Tom-Elliott @Junkhacker what do you think? -
@Sebastian-Roth Interesting, so a simple update to the latest build seems to be a solution? I remember you saying (about a month ago no less) that you guys were releasing a new version. Interesting, I really need to keep hounding my superiors lol.
-
@salted_cashews No, we have not included this patch to FOG yet. This is new to me as well. Just stumbled upon this when looking for a solution.
A new version (1.5.6) was released a couple of days ago but as you see we are always on the edge of trying to solve all the issues that arise. So new releases will come… You need to know that we don’t have a strict release schedule. We are a very small team of developers and sometimes there is very little time while we have a bit more at other times. So sometimes there might be a new release in just two weeks and sometimes it takes months.
-
@salted_cashews Would you be keen to test new init files (manual download of inits and possibly kernel binaries) if I provide those for you? Should find enough time by the end of this week.
