      @IndustrialTech87 The new computers are 500GB but I don’t see why it would be a problem now and worked before. Isn’t that the purpose of resizing? Could it be how the image was captured and the partitions? Any possible fixes?

        @IndustrialTech87 After reading some other post with people having the same error, it seems that maybe its a partition issue, however, I am not sure. If it is, I am not sure what I should change the values to in d1.fixed_size_partitions.

        I have a screenshot of disk management once the image is deployed to one of the G3 machines.
        disk_mgmt.JPG

        I am going to grab some more information.

          If I am understanding this right, it currently says 1:2 which means it wont’ resize partitions 1 and 2. That is EFI and the Microsoft reserved partition. That would be correct. Partitions 3 is the basic data partition and 4 is a required partition, I assume the extra space that was not allocated. Maybe it isn’t a partition issue…maybe its a FOG version/kernel issue…who knows. Driving me nuts!

            I am working to go into debug mode but wanted to mention that in the error when trying to deploy to these G4 desktops, it says
            “Args passed: /dev/nvme0n1 1 /images/images/ 9 all
            cmd tried: sgdisk -g1 /images/images/d1.mbr /dev/nvme0n1
            Exit returned code 4”

              @IndustrialTech87 Please post the contents of the text files d1.partitions as well as d1.minimum.partitions here. Best if you copy&paste instead of sending a screenshot as I can copy values for calculations easier then instead of typing.

              Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                  @IndustrialTech87 said in Error trying to restore GPT partition tables. Exit returned code 4 (On new PC's):

                  DE94BBA4-06D1-4D40-A16A-BFD50179D6AC

                  You have a Windows Recovery Partition at the end of your disk (fourth partition)! That prevents FOG from shrinking down to a size smaller than ( 1952490496 (start of 4th partition) + 1034240 (size of 4th partition) ) * 512 (byte sector size) = 931.51 GB …

                  Do you actually need a recovery partition of you do imaging with FOG?? If you can, delete the 4th partition and resize will work as expected.

                  Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)

                        @IndustrialTech87 Sorry for bombing you. I was discussing removing that partition or setting it so it resizes. I am going to deploy to a spare pc, delete the partition in disk management and recapture the image. Or use Gpart maybe. Thanks for the help.

                          @Sebastian-Roth Removing the 4th partition did resolve the issue. Thank you for your help. Great work with FOG.
