Hello,
just for report:
blank page when i update an option in the service configuration page.(but the change is ok )
Apache Log:
PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function set() on a non-object in /var/www/fog/lib/pages/ServiceConfigurationPage.class.php on line 307The fog FOGMulticastManager don’t start. I have to do chmod +x on the /opt/fog/service/FOGMulticastManager/FOGMulticastManager
Fog Rev :1377
I will try imaging this morning (french hours !!!
)
Voila!!! -
Just a question:
how to for the FOG_KEY_SEQUENCE ?
-
r1378 released.
Should fix the service configuration page error reported above. A couple of minor fixes to Imaging Log report page.
@lepretre: Can you give more information about your question? Are you wondering what it is? How to use it? I don’t know.
-
Thanks Tom
For the the FOG_KEY_SEQUENCE ?
What kind of key combination can I use?
Can I have an example of the parameter to write?Olivier
-
It’s on the PXE Settings screen. It show’s the key combination that you would use to get to the menu. it’s only active when the Hidden Menu checkbox is checked.
-
r1383 released.
Moves Imaging Log to class file, for the time being it will display like normal, until I get all the default reports moved into the report class as their own objects, I’m leaving these files.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 24618, member: 7271”]So what’s wrong with the FTP Step? If I understood your previous post, FTP to those directories removes the /volume1/ label and sets the home to /volume1/ making the ftp step look at /images through relative means. I didn’t configure there FTP server, so I don’t know how to help. The reason for not doing it via NFS is because of permissions.[/quote]
Can we still correct code “[B]ftp_nlist[/B]” with a code “[B]ftp_rawlist[/B]” in “/var/www/html/fog/lib/fog FOGFTP.class.php” which seems to be more compatible with different NAS server?
-
What is the difference between nlist and rawlist?
What would happen if I just did basename to the path being sent? Would this, theoretically, work properly as the basename of /volumes1/images would be images and the basename of /images would also be images?
The only issue I see with using basename is for those file systems where you need the full path for things to work. I believe this is why nlist was used. It allows you to read the contents within a specified directory. I’m still under the impression that the NAS boxes just need to be configured so /volume1 is not where it plops you in for FTP. It should be relatively simple, though I don’t have a NAS to test with.

Hy,
not working When i deploy image type “other” with multos windows + linux .(upload ok)
I try in debug deploy and nothing is done after update database:Rev: 1378

@lepretre
I guess I’m confused? What do you mean nothing is done after the database is update?
Are you saying it doesn’t actually image the system? Are you saying it doesn’t reboot?I’m guessing you’re saying it doesn’t actually deploy the image. I can try to take a look into that, but I don’t have a system to test with readily available, so I’m sorry if it’s a little delayed.
When you say image type, are you referring the “Single Disk (Resizable), Multi Part Single/All Disk (Non-Resizable), Raw” or the OS Type as “other”?

I’m not strong enough in English to translate everything, but hey never mind, I will continue to change myself both programs.Yet these modules certainly pose problems to other people as we speak in “FOGuserGuide-> Separate_NFS_Server” a rewrite these modules …
[url]http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=FOGUserGuide#Separate_NFS_Server[/url] -
Yes it doesn’t actually deploy the image and the task disappears from active task.
my image is Multi Part All Disk (Non-Resizable) and single too (I tried 2),and the os otherI’ll try again
sorry for my bad english :oops:
I’m not a hurry! you are already a lot to us!!

Hello .
I am trying to install FOG 0.33 with dnsmasq .
Following this guide :
[QUOTE]Chainloading iPXE using dnsmasq setup
This information pertains to FOG 0.33 and the new iPXE boot method.
In order to continue to use dnsmasq to dole out ip addresses and to help find the boot file, some changes need to be made to force the boot file to load the iPXE boot file.
The old pxelinux.0 file is still included in the fog installation as pxelinux.0.old but this file has been replaced by a new file called [B]undionly.kpxe[/B]. We will use this file, undionly.kpxe, in place of the pxelinux.0 file when setting up the ltsp.conf file.
The reason we are able to do this is because pxe boot looks for files that match a query of names, first starting with the MAC address of the machine and moving down the list until it reaches the default file. We are going to create a file for it to find every time it queries for the default file.
[LIST=1]
[]Create a default file for undionly.kpxe to load (you may substitute gedit for your favorite text editor):
sudo mkdir pxelinux.cfg
cd pxelinux.cfg
sudo gedit default
[]Insert the following lines and edit the server ip address to reflect your own FOG server:
DEFAULT vesamenu.c32
LABEL fog
MENU DEFAULT
kernel ipxe.krn dhcp && chain [url]http://(fog-server-ip-address)/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php?mac=${net0/mac}[/url]
PROMPT 0
TIMEOUT 01
[*]Save your files and restart your dnsmasq service with the following command:
sudo service dnsmasq restart
[/LIST]
[/QUOTE]didn’t have any success in booting at all .Then , I have renamed “pxelinux.0.old” in “pxelinux.0” , and now I can boot from PXE .
Now ,a client computer find “pxelinux.0” , load it, and then loads iPXE file.(i think)
How can I make use of [B]undionly.kpxe file ? [/B]In this workaround , I don’t think i am using it. -
The option 67 where it tells what file to load during boot (your system is probably using pxelinux.0) point it at undionly.kpxe. Thant’s it.

You do not need to use the pxelinux.0 file. instead replace it with undionly.kpxe
-
For my probleme in debug I make fdisk /dev/sda and type w
and the deploy start -
Does anyone know how to specify an http proxy for undionly.kpxe?
Thanks.

r1384 released.
More “default” reports added to the ReportManagementPage. Still not complete, so you should see the originals. Fixes issue in virus history on host displaying improperly. Adds legacy flagging ability so if you are upgrading to newer revisions of 0.33, you can set whether the image is a “partimage” or “partclone” image. Legacy checked for these images means partimage is what the image is set for and will image as. Legacy unchecked the system will use partclone. More documentation added.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 23426, member: 7271”]As I don’t have any Mac’s in my possession, it will likely be a little while, unless you can give what the output of the command: [code]blkid -po udev <partitionnumber>[/code] for each of the partitions on the system (especially a freshly installed system) it’ll probably be a little bit.
While I have made sure to have the partclone.hfsp binary available, and also included the hfs file system support in the kernel, I don’t know what to check for to get the MPS/MPA imaging types to use the proper binary.[/quote]
Tom, I’m not sure whether this is exactly what you were looking for or not, but if not, let me know. Apparently Mac OS doesn’t have the blkid command, so I booted from a linux live cd to get the info. The machine was a MacBook 1,1, freshly imaged with 10.6.8 using DeployStudio.

ID_PART_ENTRY_DISK=8:0The bigger issue, unless I misunderstand you, is that you’re talking about making the filesystems work so that machines can be imaged using Mac OS and its HFS filesystems. What I intended to post initially was that Macs won’t boot at all from any version of FOG, 0.33b included (at least without doing the steps listed below). I assume it has something to do with EFI and PXE. I’ve found 2 ways to boot from FOG as-is
- get the iPXE image from their site, burn to CD or copy to flash drive, then boot from the newly created iPXE media. Then FOG is found and booted from without further interaction. The con is that to boot from FOG again, you have to use the CD/Flash drive each time.
2)get a Mac install disc compatible with the machine, boot from it, and re-bless the disk using the command “bless --mount /Volumes/Macintosh\ /HD/ --setBoot --legacy --verbose”. The legacy argument seems to force the machine to use some type of legacy BIOS emulation. Reboot, then the machine will boot from FOG as many times as you’d like - I don’t know whether this will persist once the machine is reimaged or not.
- get the iPXE image from their site, burn to CD or copy to flash drive, then boot from the newly created iPXE media. Then FOG is found and booted from without further interaction. The con is that to boot from FOG again, you have to use the CD/Flash drive each time.
