FOG 1.6, identified problems

The configuration on my test server was recovered by restoring the server’s mysql database in 1.4.4, so the boot menus are normally good

Uhhhhmmm, not a good idea. FOG 1.6 is quite different to 1.5.x and even more to 1.4.4!! I am pretty sure your setup is now totally messed up with a DB recovery form 1.4.4 state.

When you initially setup the 1.6 server, did you install plain from scratch or did you start from a copy of an old server? It’s very hard to help if we only know part of what exactly you did.

[lebrun78]

it’s a brand new server, (new hardware, new centos 8.0 distribution) except the fog database I restored.
I would like to keep machines, images, snapins configurations

[lebrun78]

@Sebastian-Roth
with the restoration of the base, it seemed to work well.
Should I restart from scratched, installed and import from 1.4.4 export files for images, hosts, snapins?

Definitely better to ex/import that stuff instead of using a complete DB dump from 1.4.4!!

@lebrun78 I’m not understanding here.

You made a change only to put it back in place and then test and found it’s still an issue?

This doesn’t make sense to me.

You have some customization going on. I don’t know where in the customization the issue is occurring.

By having it clean, you should be at what is needed for things when they’re working properly.

If you’re still getting error 500 from the boot.php, then chances are you will have an error in your php-fpm/www-error.log

You are trying to do too many things and we can’t help you if you’re doing that.

“I did that, but then I did this and it still isn’t working” doesn’t help because we don’t know at what point things stopped working.

If you started with a 100% clean database, do things work? I’d imagine if it were such a problem, i’d be seeing it too as I run working-1.6 for testing.

[lebrun78]

Trying to import from an 1.4.4 export unsuccessful for images,hosts and users .
Is there log for imports ?

[Sebastian Roth]

@lebrun78 Have you checked the apache and PHP-FPM logs yet? See my signature.

I guess what i’m trying to establish in this thread:

I cannot replicate the error you’re seeing. And from what I can tell this is an error that’s been custom made.

The thread starts: FOG 1.6 Identified Problems.

Nothing, so far, besides the advanced menu issue which was addressed, and added the Client link within the menu system, has been a problem specific to FOG 1.6

I don’t know how to help any further with this as the 2 things requested that were not due to custom modifications to the iPXE menu have been addressed.

Were these the only 2 things identified and solved? If so, can you branch out your specific problems into a new thread. I’m getting rather lost on where a problem is and how we’re supposed to help further.

Do things work as intended out of box (before copying your 1.4.4 database over it?)

[lebrun78]

I intended to move the draft version 1.6 forward by identifying errors as I progressed through the tests.
I’m going back to zero with the server’s operating system reinstallation.
I can create a thread for each error encountered if you prefer.

[Tom Elliott]

@lebrun78 I’m not saying you shouldn’t post issues here, I’m saying they should be specific to the issues of 1.6.

We addressed the 2 items that were related to issues in 1.6 - 1 being the advanced menu not having #!ipxe and then added the feature for the Client installer access on the menu.

The other items seem to be due to custom elements. Meaning, they’re not specific to 1.6 and not issues 1.6 is causing rather the custom things you’ve added.

I understand bringing up issues, but pushing everything here simply because you’re on 1.6 doesn’t mean it’s a problem 1.6 is causing, you know what I mean?

these two features worked very well in version 1.4.4.
The start menus were identical under 1.4.4 and it was ok

The configuration obtained from the database seemed good, in the configuration interface and the generated files.
However, I will try again without starting from a restoration of the base. I will keep you informed on this thread.

I copied this into my menu and things worked perfectly fine. Of course I don’t have any hosts named host_win10-3 etc… but the point remains I’m not seeing any issues.

And no image imported

[Tom Elliott]

@lebrun78 What do you mean no image imported?

There should be another log file that’s handling the php stuff. Usually called /var/log/php-fpm/www-error.log

The error.log from php-fpm is specifically error’s and processes starting dealing only with the php-fpm service. The www-error.log is the errors php-fpm is seeing from the php code passed by the browser.

Either way, “no image imported” means what? The definitions weren’t created? The physical image data didn’t import to the fog server?

We need clarity to help out.

Cool, thank you for that. This feature has not been implemented yet. Here’s the code behind the scenes, so it is a known thing and needs to be worked. I’m only one person though…

(function($) {
    var importFile = $('#importfile'),
        importForm = $('#import-form'),
        importFormBtn = $('#import-send');
    importForm.on('submit', function(e) {
        e.preventDefault();
    });
    importFormBtn.on('click', function() {
        importFormBtn.prop('disabled', true);
        // TODO: Start uploading file.
        // Send for processing.
        // complete data set and reset our layout.
        importFormBtn.prop('disabled', false);

Could you tell me which features are not implemented todoy, so I will be able to test all the others ?

[Tom Elliott]

@lebrun78 The thing is I don’t know what is or isn’t.

For what it’s worth, I just updated the code base so you should be able to import images now.
I’ll be working throughout the day to get all the import elements functional.

[Tom Elliott]

@lebrun78 All import elements should be functional now if you run a git pull and reinstall.

[Tom Elliott]

I have identified a few more issues and been able to correct them.

1. Clicking on pages within the menu as opposed to full refresh on the same page, some elements such as list -> select items to delete, click delete, the modal not appearing requesting password to ensure you want to do this. On full refresh to link it worked. On clicking from the menu it didn’t. Fixed by causing reinitialization.

2. Import elements didn’t return proper notification items. Similarly warnings and info notifications always assumed error. This has been fixed

3. Added rudimentary file upload progress system. Will be working to implement a progress indicator.

4. Creating images when entering the name, the path didn’t auto populate. This has been re-implemented.

5. Snapin file uploads were already set to be operational, but did not work due to typo on the POST field to send up the files. Renamed and introduced.

6. Host export didn’t properly indicate the primac field. It didn’t even pull in the Mac at all and the values were improper. The host name appeared in description, and name field was the spot Mac was trying to populate. Added the primac field and properly pulling the data now.

7. Along with the reinitialization for the modal requesting passwords, this same reinitialization was causing table populating to be reinitialization and throw an error as it already existed. Set to retrieve so not to throw the error.
