Fatal Error: Failed to Mount NFS Volume

[Tom Elliott]

Alright, based on that, the nic is getting an IP.

Can you get it so it’s continuously entering “Attempting to send inventory…” and on the server get us a copy of the file: /var/log/apache2/error.log

[michaeloberg]

I don’t have a log directory after var.

[Joe Schmitt]

In *nix systems putting a / infront of a path means it’s at the root. So what you were doing is this:

cd /var <-- Basically C:\var
cd /log <-- Basically C:\log

You need to enter the whole path like this :

cd  /var/log 

OR

cd /var
cd log

OK I found my way how to navigate to the error.log, how to I obtain a copy of it so I can share that on here:

Copy it to your /tftpboot folder, then use a windows client to grab it via TFTP. See the example here:

When I try to copy the error.log file to the TFTPBoot directory I get the following message:

@michaeloberg sudo ?

[michaeloberg]

Yep, sudo did it. Again, I am new to Linux, your help is greatly appreciated.

When I try to get the file from my windows box I get the attached error. I am sorry for all of this, I am new to FOG and Linux but am learning a lot from you guys. Thanks for your help:

@michaeloberg Connect you to your server with WinSCP

[michaeloberg]

So I downloaded WinSCP and was able to connect to the FOG server, but when I try to download the error.log file I get the attached error.

[ch3i]

@michaeloberg

sudo chmod 755 /tftpboot/error.log

I was just about to say something similar, ch3i… Only I’d recommend 777. But anyways, yeah. After you set the proper permissions on that file, you should be able to get it via TFTP.

[michaeloberg]

Dang your good, thank you so much so I have attached my error log!
error.log

[michaeloberg]

Any ideas?

[Wayne Workman]

I would investigate the “favicon.ico” errors first, because there are a lot of them…

https://forums.fogproject.org/search/favicon.ico?in=titlesposts

I’m at the end of the day today… about to head home. I’ll help more later.

[michaeloberg]

When I try to click on your link I get a page does not exist error message

[Wayne Workman]

It’s supposed to just take you to a search for “favicon.ico” in the forums.

You can search for it yourself if it doesn’t work.

[Wayne Workman]

I talked with Tom, he says the “favicon.ico” errors are non-impacting.

So you should search the forums for the other errors. The WiKi too, and Google, why not?

[michaeloberg]

Is there anything else we can try? I really need this image uploaded ASAP as I have 400 HP 745 G2 systems to load. Any further help is appreciated, I am open to any suggestions!
