Can't send inventory.. PLS HLP
-
I opened the prelinux.cfg/default file and found web=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/fog/ in three locations. Any other suggestions?
-
Here is an image of the file.

Are the HP-Z210 the only machines you have tried to boot? Do you have other machines?
I had some Tangent computers that flat out REFUSED to boot via pxe menu from FOG but always displayed my WDS server.
I had to contact Tangent for a BIOS update that allowed me to properly connect to my fog server.Do you have other units you can test with? It looks like your file is okay. At least it looks like mine does, the ip addresses are different of course, but the contents are the same.
I’d be interested to see if the pxe menu fails on any other make/model.

Is this an upgraded system, or brand new install for 0.32?
-
Brand new install… Ubuntu 12.4 lts with 0.32
-
And you’re sure the database is accessible?
-
Jaymes… No I do not have any machines currently I can test. I have 40 z210’s that need imaged and I am hoping to get this solution working. I have heard great things about FOG so I figured I would give it a try.
-
Tom… How can I test that?
-
I checked the /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php and noticed that the SQL username was blank… Should Root be added here?

Yes, but your main file dealing with that needs to match:
/var/www/fog/commons/config.php
-
Your host should be the FOG SERVER IP (not Localhost or 127.0.0.1)
The database should, typically, be called fog
The Username is usually root. If you have a different username, then use that, but typically it’s fog.
Did you set a password for the database? If you did, make sure that is correct as well.

I found in the /var/www/fog/commons/config.php the MYSQL_Host was set to “localhost”. I changed the “localhost” to the IP address of the server and rebooting. I just want to confirm that is the correct change for the MYSQL_Host variable.Thanks
-
It should be correct, but did you verify the database name, username, and password fields were all correct?
-
Tom
After I changed the MYSQL_Host variable to the IP address it now when I try to PXE boot times out at the TFTP portion of the PXE boot… It pulls but doesn’t go past that stage.
Thanks

This post is deleted! -
then change the host part back to localhost for both the /opt/fog/service/etc/config.php and the /var/www/fog/commons/config.php
-
I changed it back and now it is still crapping out on the TFTP… The database name and password are correct… Can you post an image of what both of those files should look like so I have something to compare it to…
Thanks
-
I really can’t.
However, try running service tftp-hpa stop; service tftp-hpa start
-
Now I am getting an unrecognized service.
-
I don’t know your system. I don’t know your particular setup.
Unrecognized service means something is not being typed properly.
What ever the commands where that restarted your tftp services yesterday should be the same today, unless somebody uninstalled that program.
To find the service, open a terminal and perform:
sudo ls /etc/init.d
Look for a the files called tftp. I think it may be tftpd-hpa
so maybe try:
sudo service tftpd-hpa restart.
