Fog Svn 2784 Master image, multiple partition upload error/image registration error

[Chris Shanks]

@Tom Elliott
Another problem that might just be me but hoped i could run it past you.
The upload master image and registrations works fine however I am now having problems with the mysql and image location. On install i left the storage node as default /images, pulled an image like I would usually however it is not creating the folder in /images and appears not to be pulling correctly as the image info shows size on client as 5.00GiB and size on server as 0.00GiB.
The only thing in the /images folder is /dev and /postdownloadscript. Hope this helps.

I have tried the install with both leaving the root mysql password blank for all instructions and creating a password and entering it on request as well.

I can confirm that latest svn work fine.

Update: I think it is the image creation process as when I create a new image and save to default storage node (/images) it does not create a subdirectory for the upload to save in causing the previously posted error. Is this just my sql or the svn?
If it is just me, would you be able to help solve the problem please?
Thanks

Info:
in fog settings.
fog storage nod is: fogstorage
fog storage node pass: random password that i presume sql created, should this be the defined one I entered during installation?

This is neither sql or the svn, it is your FTP settings. FTP is how fog moves the folder from /images/dev/macaddress to /images/imagename.

Please verify that your FTP username and password are correct in the settings.

you can manually create the folder and move the content in from /images/dev/macaddress, this would solve the issue until you can fix your FTP problems.

There currently is no password entered in fog-sftp-ftp-password. should there be a default one? tftp-host is the same ip as the fog server itself we i presume is also correct.
Apologies, i didn’t realise the ftp was how fog moved the folders.
Thank you!

[Jaymes Driver]

yes there should be a password set, try updating the password to that of the FOG user, save settings and try again.

you can also use a ssh terminal such as putty to ftp into the fog server, if you can create folders in the command line using putty, your fog server should be able to move images without intervention.

I have left the fog u/n and p/w to the defaults of fog/password so I’ll try that.

[Junkhacker]

that’s not what the fog linux user password is. you’ll likely need to change the linux password, and then put that new password in the storage ftp settings location

[Chris Shanks]

update: when I ask a host to upload a master image I get this error which may be explaining why the ftp server isn’t working.
Populating /dev using udev: udevd[2278] error creating poll fd: function not implemented.

As the images are still being stored in /dev rather than /images.

[Junkhacker]

did you try changing the linux password for the user “fog” and setting the storage ftp password to the same?
