      Creserva,

      We need a little more information. What is your server OS? How much RAM does it have? What’s the networking environment? It sounds like your setup is just the server and a switch/hub between the clients. I’ve only seen slow web interfaces when the RAM is in high use as the http threads per one client requesting the page opens about 5-10 threads at a time.

      Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.

      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)

        Sorry for the lack of information. It is running in vm (Hyper-v), 1GB of RAM. I am not even imaging anything, just purely web browsing. Also, on the Fog Management Login I get this spinning wheels on Estimated Fog site and latest version for awhile, then I get an error contacting server.

          Do you have any log information from /var/log/httpd (for redhat) that could provide some more insight?

            It is Ubuntu 12.01.4 version I think. When I login to /var/log httpd is no where to find. Anywhere else should I look.

              I don’t know ubuntu too well, but I’d start in /var/log/apache2

                  Try error.log (the most recent) to find out most recent type:

                  ls -lhrt, look for the error.log at the bottom.

                    Also,

                    As it sounds as if your FOG server’s RAM is being eaten, have you tried a reboot to the server?

                        What is your systems RAM and CPU usage sitting at? Are you running thru a Proxy? Have you tried restarting the server?

                          In the Hyper-V manager assigned RAM is 1gb and CPU usage is just 0%. I am not using any proxy at all.

                            Creserva,

                            Do you have a fundamental understanding of linux? I’m not trying to be mean, but what Hyper-V show’s isn’t necessarily what the system is actually using. It’s showing, more or less the assigned and CPU resource totals, not what the system’s actually using. If you know terminal open it up and get root access. Then type the command free and post the output of that. then type the command uptime and post the output of that. I’d still, highly, recommend a server restart. From terminal this can be performed with reboot, or shutdown -r now.

                              Its alright I am noob in Linux in anyways… But, I think slowness I could get by with that. Is just whenever I tried to deploy image to a host. It just sits there and hangs then I get a gray screen. When I look at the active task on Fog management, it does not move the process bar. Just sits there and the computer is froze.

                                So the tftp boot menu never appears on a client system?

                                The slowness on the interface is what was thought to be indicative, but now it sounds like you have your setup to be FOG as the DHCP server. However, how are your clients connecting to FOG itself? Are you behind a router, switch, hub? If you’re in a router, you’ll need to tell your router to point to your fog server and pxelinux.0 for dhcp-boot. If you’re on a switch where the FOG Server is the DHCP server, you’ll need to make sure that firewalls are disabled on the server. Otherwise your server is blocking attempts for requests for DHCP.

                                We still need more information I think.

                                  I have the Server 2008 R2 acting as the DHCP Server and I have the option where the 67 is set to pxelinux.0 and 66 where the IP of the FOG is. When host start and boot into pxe it sees the FOG and starting to do the commands and I see the image name. But, it do es not get me to the blue screen where I could see the progress bar of imaging status. Just gray screen.

                                    Try a different kernel. That’s at least seeming to work for many others. I’ve built one doesn’t rely on the Video cards so should display something the entire time:

                                    [url]https://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]

                                    This file will go in the file system under:

                                    /tftpboot/fog/kernel/

                                    Just make sure you make a copy of your current one by doing:

                                    cp /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage.orig

                                    Then run:
                                    EDITED FOR PROPER SYNTAX (SORRY)
                                    wget --no-check-certificate -O /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage [url]http://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url]

                                    Then try to do the task you’ve been attempting.

                                      Thanks for the reply… When I tried wget --no-check-certificate -O /tftpboot/fog/kernel/bzImage [url]http://mastacontrola.com/fogboot/kernel/bzImage[/url] command I get an error temporary failure in name resolution. So I just download the file on my computer then upload via winscp. I did backup the old bzImage file first

                                          I think the FOG Server having some dns issue. Though I added FOG_PXE_IMAGE_DNSADDRESS TO 8.8.8.8 but it seems not resolving names.
