Imaging stuck on upload after finished

[Chris Whiteley]

Has Anyone else run into this yet? Is it certain hardware?

[Harold Thirkill]

Check the security on the images folder. I made fog the owner, and made sure it had rwx on all folders and files, and my upload seems to be working properly now. I’m guessing this was caused by rebuilding the server from scratch, then importing the database, and images.

[Tom Elliott]

Ah, you shouldn’t have imported the database from 0.32 to 1.x.x

Reason being you ask?

Because there has been a lot of changes. Importing hosts via csv is good. Overwriting the database is not such a good thing.

[Harold Thirkill]

I installed 0.32 first, then installed 1.0.1. I then imported the database before performing the database upgrade. Then I upgraded to 1.1.0 as it was released the next day. Everything seems to be working fine.

[Chris Whiteley]

Changing the permissions on the images folder worked! I wish I would have tried that first before I created a post. Thanks for the reminder!

[mlnancejr8808]

I am having this issue. I am having some issues getting the permissions to change correctly. Can anyone give me some pointers on this? all of my filles have root as an owner instead of fog.

[Chris Whiteley]

All you want to do is go to your images folder and set permissions for all.

cd /images
chmod -R 777 *

and that will give you full permissions and should no longer give you any issues

[mlnancejr8808]

I have changed the permissions on all of this and it is still not working.

[Chris Whiteley]

so it is still giving you the Stars down the center? Your imaging is set to partclone not partimage right?

[mlnancejr8808]

correct

[Chris Whiteley]

well if you are doing an upload, maybe you can delete the current image you are trying to create out of the /images folder and then try to do an upload. Maybe it is having a hard time trying to overwrite it.

[mlnancejr8808]

I have deleted the image file, tried recreating it and it has not shown up in /images. I’m guessing the permissions aren’t working correctly or something isn’t matching. Here is what it looks like when I run ls -l /images

Also when it goes to the upload screen its says its cloning /dev/sda1/ to /tmp/pigz1 is this correct?

[Chris Whiteley]

Did this happen after the update? If so, is there a way you can delete your image from the image management portion and the image file in /images, then try and create a new one and associate whatever machine you are using to upload that new image ID? You can also (once the the old one is deleted) change the sql to reflect the new image with the old number:

user@machine:~$ mysql -u root
mysql>use fog;
mysql>select imageid, imagename from images;

±--------±--------------------+
| imageID | imageName |
±--------±--------------------+
| 8 | StudentSpare-HL91 |
| 4 | BSELAB |
| 11 | MS16372Teacher2 |
| 10 | MS163KTeacher2 |
±--------±--------------------+
You want to change this to be:
[COLOR=#b3b3b3][SIZE=11px]Code:[/SIZE][/COLOR]
±--------±--------------------+
| imageID | imageName |
±--------±--------------------+
| 1 | StudentSpare-HL91 |
| 2 | BSELAB |
| 3 | MS16372Teacher2 |
| 4 | MS163KTeacher2 |
±--------±--------------------+
You’ll execute the following lines at the mysql> prompt.
[COLOR=#b3b3b3][SIZE=11px]Code:[/SIZE][/COLOR]
mysql>update images set imageID=1 where imageID=8 limit 1;
mysql>update images set imageID=2 where imageID=4 limit 1;
mysql>update images set imageID=3 where imageID=11 limit 1;
mysql>update images set imageID=4 where imageID=10 limit 1;
This changes the imageID value for each image definition. You can reorder them however you want, just adjust the imageID values in each statement. the “limit 1” on the end of each statement makes sure you change just 1 record, because logically there can be only 1.

What this has done is broken the link between the host records and the image records. At this point, the hosts no longer have a valid image associated with them, because they know the image by it’s previous ID, which is no longer valid.

Now you have to update the hosts table so that any hosts which used the old image ID, now uses it’s new image ID.
[COLOR=#b3b3b3][SIZE=11px]Code:[/SIZE][/COLOR]
mysql>update hosts set hostImage=1 where hostImage=8;
mysql>update hosts set hostImage=2 where hostImage=4;
mysql>update hosts set hostImage=3 where hostImage=11;
mysql>update hosts set hostImage=4 where hostImage=10;

I have deleted the old image file that I am replacing this with. The file is never being created for the new one.

[Chris Whiteley]

then you may need to look at doing a fresh install. When did you do the upgrade? what version are you on?

[mlnancejr8808]

I am on version 1.1.2. Did the upgrade from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2 this morning.

[Jim Holcomb]

Tom, I am on v1.1.1 and I just updated an image. All went well, and got the image upload success message. Now the laptop is looping on the FTP login incorrect message. I do not recall setting up an FTP password. Can I just change the password via the FOG interface or does this need to be does elsewhere at the server level? (Ubuntu 12.04)

The password for FTP is that of the fog user on the server, and has to match two locations in the configuration.

1. Storage Management > All Storage Nodes > Select Storage Node > Management Password
2. Fog Configuration > Fog Settings > TFTP Server > FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD

We have come up with this problem too. I’ve noticed that when this error happens we have these lines in the log file

I was in the process of updating to the latest version and it seems that when the service was restarted it finished uploading the image.
