      I can always get the first image to storage, then after that, I can’t get any computer to pxe boot. It will get DHCP address then it times out on TFTP. I am running Ubuntu 12.04 with fog1.1.2.

        I ran [FONT=Consolas]sudo service tftpd-hpa restart. Worked like a charm. Thanks a bunch everyone. That one sure had me going. [/FONT]

          This has been written and coded many times throughout the forums. I think Jaymes’ fix is much better for this issue here is some steps you can do:

          [code]sudo update-rc.d tftpd-hpa disable
          sudo sysv-rc-conf tftpd-hpa off[/code]

          This should disable tftpd-hpa from booting at system boot up.

          Then put the following line above the exit 0; line in /etc/rc.local:
          sleep 30 && /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa start

          Save and close the file and you’re done. The rc.local script is run after bootup, so within 30 seconds of getting the login prompt tftpd-hpa will start up and you should have success.

          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)

            [quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 33481, member: 7271”]what happens if you run:
            [code]sudo service tftpd-hpa restart[/code]

            and try booting a host again?[/quote]
            I was having the same problem and this worked for me. I then tried rebooting my server and had to run the command again. Is there a fix to not have to do this every time I need to reboot my server?
