You must first upload an image to create a download task

[middendorf]

I uploaded an image and if I try to download it to another host I got the following error message:

Failed to create deployment tasking for the following hosts
You must first upload an image to create a download task

Also - when did this failure start? Was it working before? What changed?

Have you checked the mysql settings inside of /opt/fog/.fogsettings on the problematic storage nodes?

[Wayne Workman]

@ch3i @middendorf Uncheck the master storage node checkbox - save - then recheck it and save. Then try to start the service.

If you are using the location plugin - make note of your settings - remove the plugin totally - the reinstall the plugin and setup your settings again. Then try to start the service.

The problem is that the FOG services won’t start (FAIL) >> No replication. I don’t know why. @Developers help :’(

Yes.

Tested with FileZilla. On both server and storage node I can connect to the home directory.

Is the user/pass you used with this test set as the storage node’s user/pass ?

It’s a replication problem, I message you about that (I’m on his installation via Teamviewer).

Problem? There is just one fog server with one storage node for image storing.

I can connect via FTP. Or what do you mean?

Sorry I’ve not understood that

The double slahes where there after the setup so I though it was correct and edited the storage node settings the same way.

Edited it back to one slash. Still the same error message.

The fog linux user have the same password as the FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD (Fog settings > TFTP Server > FOG_TFTP_FTP_PASSWORD) ?
If yes can you use a FTP client to test the connection ?

Maybe there is something wrong on the storage node settings?

The FTP path looks strange. What’s up with the double slashes?

@middendorf look at your FTP path You have two /

@ch3i

I thought I already checked that article and the solutions mentioned in it.

The image has been moved from /dev to /images and there is nothin in /dev.

Password is the same on all places, on the storage node and on the normal fog installation.

Maybe there is something wrong on the storage node settings?
