Setting up and building UDPCast...Failed!

Jaymes Driver

Sorry you had to edit the file manually, but it seems like you got it, thanks for letting us know it worked and what you did to solve the problem, I know this will be useful to others in the future until 0.33 is ready.

Tom Elliott

The manual edit was because the / in /packages/udpcast-… needed to be escaped. I edited the command above to reflect it to be proper.

Sorry about that all. I’m an idiot.

Saving to: ‘udpcast-20120424.tar.gz.1’ <- This is because the location you stored the file already had udpcast-20120424.tar.gz

i did it correctly and got the confirmation…but when i login into my fog server ([url]Http://ip/fog/management[/url]) it shows me unable to connect database…

Can anybody have the same issue and please do tell me the solution

Hi All,

I have got the same problem and James sent me this email:

[FONT=Georgia][COLOR=#141414]Welcome to FOG!!! I will paste this information here for you, but the thread can be located here in the future: [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/setting-up-and-building-udpcast-failed.4548’][U][COLOR=#176093]http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/setting-up-and-building-udpcast-failed.4548[/COLOR][/U][/URL]

Log into the FOG Server as root and go to your installation folder.
Something like:
Code:
cd /opt/fog_0.32
Then cd into the packages folder

Code:
cd packages
Then run these commands:
Code:
wget [URL=‘https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/udpcast-20120424.tar.gz’][U][COLOR=#176093]https://svn.code.sf.net/p/freeghost/code/trunk/packages/udpcast-20120424.tar.gz[/COLOR][/U][/URL]
rm -f udpcast-20071228.tar.gz
sed -i ‘s/udpcastout=“udpcast-20071228”/udpcastout=“udpcast-20120424”/’ …/lib/common/config.sh[/COLOR][/FONT]

until here it goes well on my Unbutu computer. [FONT=Georgia][COLOR=#141414][/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT=Georgia][COLOR=#141414] sed -i ‘s/udpcastsrc=“…/packages/udpcast-20071228.tar.gz”/udpcastsrc=“…/packages/udpcast-20120424.tar.gz”/’ …/lib/common/config.sh[/COLOR][/FONT]

On this rules an ‘>’ appears…

[FONT=Georgia][COLOR=#141414] cd …/bin
./installfog.sh [/COLOR][/FONT]

This is my output:

Try:
[code]sudo apt-get update; sudo apt-get install mysql-server[/code]

Ubuntu_newby

Thanks Tom, this works. Again the install failed on udpcast.

I run this again:

sed -i ‘s/udpcastout=“udpcast-20071228”/udpcastout=“udpcast-20120424”/’ …/lib/common/config.sh
sed -i ‘s/udpcastsrc=“…/packages/udpcast-20071228.tar.gz”/udpcastsrc=“…/packages/udpcast-20120424.tar.gz”/’ …/lib/common/config.sh
cd …/bin
./installfog.sh

Installation is now succesfull. The only thing is to config the database.

When I start my browser and go to: [url]http://192.168.1.72/fog/management/[/url]

It says: Unable to connect to database.

What steps should I take (maybe a dump question, but I new to Linux…) next?

Thanks all for the help so far!

Gr, Jos

Ubuntu_newby

To configure the database I tried this:

mysql --user=root --password=… --host=127.0.0.1 fog

The output is:

Unknown database ‘fog’

Any idears?

Fog failed again on MySql:

How many time do I have reinstall MySql?

Ubuntu_newby

Now I have rebooted my Ubuntu desktop and run sudo ./installfog.sh again.

Again it went well…but in Firefox I got:

Unable to connect to database.

How do I setup the database? Or should I do anything else?

Please let me know!

Gr, Jos

Tom Elliott

Did you setup a mysql password?

If you did, you need to enter that password in the /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php [b] AND [/b] the /var/www/fog/commons/config.php files.

The lines for 0.32 should be:
MYSQL_PASSWORD.

Just enter whatever password you entered into those slots and all should work.

Ubuntu_newby

Thanks Tom! It worked.

Now I want to make an image of a Windows 7 desktop…

Gr, Jos

Ubuntu_newby

No luck this time…

I tried it according this video:

[media=youtube]fdfY7kt7oGE[/media]

Nothing appears in Task Management after I want to upload an image.

My DHCP-server is a Huawei HG655d, could that be to problem?

My client for the image is an Windows 7 Home premium desktop.

Gr, Jos

Tom Elliott

I don’t think the problem is due to the dhcp server. You said it fails when trying to create the task. So that tells me the TFTP Username and Passwordare not correct.

On your FOG Server, open a terminal and reset the fog user’s password with:
[code]sudo passwd fog[/code]

Then change the password to whatever you feel necessary.

Once complete, go to the GUI (webpage) and go to Other (The ? icon) -> FOG Settings

Look for
FOG_TFTP_USERNAME
FOG_TFTP_PASSWORD

Set the password to what every you changed it to in the previous step.

You may need to do the same thing for the storage node.

Choose Storage Management->All Storage Nodes

Select your storage node (there’ll probably be only one)

Change the Management Username and Management Password to match that of what you set as well.

Ubuntu_newby

Thanks Tom. I have tried this, but the result is the same.

When I go to -> Task Manager -> List all hosts -> choose my Win7host -> Uploadd -> The screen with “Task Management” comes up, with nothing else.

In Host Management, I see a green button left from the Win7hos, so that’s correct.

Gr, Jos

Tom Elliott

I guess I’m confused.

So you don’t see the task being created? Are you sure it isn’t created? I guess I don’t understand the issue.

You’re using 0.32 correct?

My understanding of 0.32 Task Page task creation, is there is no confirmation. It just creates the task and away you go. I could be wrong as I typically use the Host page to setup the task anyway.

Ubuntu_newby

Yes, it a strang thing!

I have made some screenshots…

Task management -> List all hosts:
[url]http://www.noordlaarderbos.nl/linux/fog_task_management1.png[/url]
Task management -> List all host -> upload ‘ZwarteSpecht’:
[url]http://www.noordlaarderbos.nl/linux/fog_task_management2.png[/url]

The screen stays empty without any task. Your correct I’m using 0.32.

Gr, Jos

Kevin

Give this a shot:

sudo gedit /var/www/fog/management/includes/tasks.confirm.include.php
Search for: &$tmp
Replace with: $tmp
Replace All (there were somewhere around twenty instances)
Save
Close
Then try to schedule your upload task again.

Tom Elliott

Good point, I forgot about that little problem.

Ubuntu_newby

Thanks Kevin this helps a little bit further. I do see something else then a empty screen:
[URL=‘http://www.noordlaarderbos.nl/linux/fog_task_management1.png’]http://www.noordlaarderbos.nl/linux/fog_task_management3.png[/URL]

But, it still won’t create a task or upload an image, when i push the button: “Upload Image”.

Under 'Other Information or “button ?” -> Log Viewer

I see many messages like this:

will try again in next iteration.

Could that be a problem?
