    Using Fog 0.39

    My config for /fog/commons/config.php has the following storage information.

    [CODE]
    define( “STORAGE_HOST”, “10.1.1.23” );
    define( “STORAGE_FTP_USERNAME”, “fog” );
    define( “STORAGE_FTP_PASSWORD”, “e2d425f4d11583******deb0a6c7517b” );
    define( “STORAGE_DATADIR”, “/images/” );
    define( “STORAGE_DATADIR_UPLOAD”, “/images/dev/” );
    [/CODE]

    When I connect using windows built-in ftp client it works.

    [CODE]ftp> open 10.1.1.23
    Connected to 10.1.1.23.
    220 (vsFTPd 2.2.2)
    User (10.1.1.23:(none)): fog
    331 Please specify the password.
    Password:
    230 Login successful.
    ftp> cd /images
    250 Directory successfully changed.
    ftp> dir
    200 PORT command successful. Consider using PASV.
    150 Here comes the directory listing.
    drwxrwxrwx 2 65534 65534 16384 Jan 12 11:19 DC7900
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 65534 65534 4995237193 Dec 30 13:59 DX2200
    drwxrwxrwx 2 35008 35003 16384 Oct 18 11:24 HPD530NSKE
    -rwxrwxrwx 1 35008 35003 6375525282 Sep 02 06:08 HPDX2450RESIZE
    drwxrwxrwx 2 35008 35003 16384 Oct 18 13:45 HPPRO3015
    drwxrwxrwx 2 65534 65534 16384 Jan 26 13:55 HP_DX2450_1
    drwxrwxrwx 3 35008 35003 16384 Jan 26 15:20 dev
    226 Directory send OK.
    ftp: 469 bytes received in 0,00Seconds 234,50Kbytes/sec.[/CODE]

    But when starting Image upload I get the information “FTP connection to storage server failed!”.
    This happens before it starts pushing the image to the NFS share.

    Is there any log I can access anywhere to see why this problem occurs?

      Did you modify your DHCP settings (ports 66 and 67) on the server?

        I modified Post_Stage2.php to echo all the connection information if the ftp was faulty.
        And found that these settings:

        [PHP]
        define( “STORAGE_HOST”, “10.1.1.23” );
        define( “STORAGE_FTP_USERNAME”, “fog” );
        define( “STORAGE_FTP_PASSWORD”, “e2d425f4d11583******deb0a6c7517b” );
        define( “STORAGE_DATADIR”, “/images/” );
        define( “STORAGE_DATADIR_UPLOAD”, “/images/dev/” );
        [/PHP]

        Has nothing to do whatsoever with storage node FTP access.

        With version 0.32 it seems that they are never used, not what I can tell from the image upload process atleast.

        Its only the storage node ip/host address and the management username and password that is used when connecting to ftp.

        This caused a problem when the SAN/NAS I was using gave different root path depending if you where accessing the share trough NFS or FTP.

        NFS needed /volumes/main/FogImages/ as path to image files.
        and
        FTP only needed / as path.

        And since only one path can be specified in the settings (I guess both ftp and nfs path should be the same on a “normal” scenario) I had to change to another SAN/NAS we had to store the image files that gave the same path to images no matter what protocol.

        So problem is resolved.
        However I have not been able to find where the STORAGE_ variables in the config.php are used. They seem deprecated.

        Best Regards
        Joakim

          To FIX this problem, follow the steps:

          access: [url]http://fogserver/fog/management/[/url]
          *** FOG Configuration ***
          *** FOG Settings *** in the menu on the left
          -> Replace the FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD fields under FOG settings

          Then open the file:
          /var/www/fog/commons/config.php - check the values of: TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD and STORAGE_FTP_PASSWORD
          These MUST match the password you set above, if not write them properly in here
          Finally reload of the service
          /etc/init.d/vsftpd reload

          then will need change the user fog password, by shell: eg.
          fogserver:/# passwd fog
          enter the new password
          re-enter the new password
          done
