Bugs in FOG 0.33
-
I downloaded .33 last week to try out Win 8 support. I created my image using basically the same process I used for Win 7 and it works just fine. Obviously there are some things missing in the UI (when I tick the shutdown option when deploying something, it doesn’t work, for example), but the actual process of taking and deploying an image seems to work just fine.
I created the image in virtual box and customized it using audit mode. Then I ran sysprep (not fogprep – FP never worked for me in Win 7) and deployed it using the Microsoft unattend file. I’m running .33 beta on Ubuntu 10.04.
I’ve created/deployed 4 different images (playing around with the unattend file). FOG worked perfectly every time.
I’m not sure if adding Win 8 support is the biggest change for .33 or not. If so, then as far as I can tell, the hard part is done

This might sound a bit silly, but do we really want to support windows 8?
(I’m 1/2 kidding here) -
ssx4life, can you think of a good reason for not supporting Windows 8?
-
Because it’s Windows 8, the Windows ME of the modern era
…ok, to be fair, just the interface is a little “different” -
I must admit I am not a fan of Win 8

Hi everyone. THANK YOU FOR FOG! Seriously.
Now that I realized there is a 0.33beta avail for testing, I am jumping in head-first.
Hope this is the correct place to report bugs or bug-like issues. If not, please direct me to the correct place.
I just grabbed 0.33beta today like so:
svn co [url]https://freeghost.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freeghost/trunk[/url] freeghost
And ran the install script.
When the web UI updater ran on first logon I got the following errors:
[ATTACH]248[/ATTACH]As I went through the menus, I cam across the following related errors:
[ATTACH]249[/ATTACH]And on a host’s page:
[ATTACH]250[/ATTACH]Google was of no help, and I also found nothing similar when searching the forums here.
Any help fixing this? Would love to get to putting 0.33beta through
Thanks! And thanks again for FOG!
edit: I have nightly dumps of the db, so I can easily restore a 0.32 fog db and run any tests requested if necessary.

After posting the above report, It seems that each Image definition had its Operating System reset to “Please select an option”
But upon checking the new db:
select * from hosts;
it shows that on the hosts with errors their hostImage is set to an ID that does not exist. e.g not in the drop-down list of images to choose from and not in the images table.
As I set each to a correct choice, the errors at the top of the Images page went away. As I then visited each host’s page, the error there was also gone.
It appears that the OS for each image definition did not get properly upgraded.

Hello!
I want to thank you for labeling the links! That is just what I needed. There is a spelling mistake though. It reads “User Mananagement” and should say “User Management”
Again thank you. If there is anything I need to help you with. Just please let me know. -

You don’t have to be a fan of it, but we still need to deploy it. Right now I keep getting pushed to get windows 8 on tablets. I also use it now on my home PC and recently now I use it on my desktop PC at work, though I keep my domain PC as windows 7 for testing applications etc. I would love to roll out widows 8 for tablets, I think users could benefit greatly. For desktops I don’t seen any legitimate reason.

Sry for the question. Is ist right that in actual svn 898 group feature is still missing? (Group hosts for multicast deploy) Link is not showing up.
-
just wanted to point out that on 12.04 with the most recent svn, the plugin management within the fog web interface is no longer functioning. It reports this error “FOG DEBUG: FOGPageManager: Class: PluginManagementPage, Method:activate, Error: Method not found in class, defaulting to index()”

[quote=“ssx4life, post: 10651, member: 268”]This might sound a bit silly, but do we really want to support windows 8?
(I’m 1/2 kidding here)[/quote]Really? If Win 8 support is the hold up, then I say release without it. Then work on support in the next release. BTW, those of you that don’t like Windows 8, just install Classic Shell ([url]http://classicshell.net/[/url]).
What is the status of the project? It has been a while since I’ve done anything. Do we need more specific testing at this point?
Cheers,

I use FOG constantly at work all day, so if anything specific needs to be tested, I can definitely help out as well. This is such an amazing piece of software and has made my life so much easier, kudos to you kind sirs

I have found a little bug.

[quote=“Fernando Gietz, post: 3391, member: 13”]I’ve problems under Centos and the FOg daemons: FOGReplicator,FOGScheduler and FOGMulticastManager.
But FOGShceduler daemon:

[/CODE][/quote]I can confirm this. These (mainly) class files are there when you upgrade from 0.32 to 0.33B but [B]are not there[/B] with a fresh installation. No wonder if you look at: [url]https://freeghost.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freeghost/trunk/packages/web/management/lib/[/url]
[U][I][B]If it is not there to checkout, there is noting to install so it will not get installed.[/B][/I][/U]
When it is not installed there will be no runnable TaskScheduler. And without that FOG is useless.
The need for these missing files is advertised here: [url]https://freeghost.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freeghost/trunk/packages/service/FOGTaskScheduler/FOGTaskScheduler[/url]
So testing 0.33 from a 0.32 upgrade might work but a fresh SVN checkout will never result in operational code!I installed this on Debian Wheezy today (April 12th 2013).
All issues with the installer are also still there: it forces installation of Debian packages even if alternatives are available (like MariaDB instead of MySQL) and overwrites configuration files without warning.
Another issue popped up too: ftp password/fog user was not resettable. (I changed the password of the system user “fog” and also the pwd in the congig.php file for the FTPserver). It kept trying the old password. The old password was still there from the 0.32 installation but was no longer valid for some reason. So no smooth migration there. I must admit though that this is a complex kerberos/pam integrated system. -
So poking round the codebase for .33 from SVN.
Snapins are borked, whenever I try and add a new one I get a blank page, checking the apache logs shows…

I’m also assuming the re-write includes clearing cruft from the install, to that effect I can find no reason to keep the following directories and files.
/fog/public
/fog/public/randomimage.php
/fog/public/imagepoolThere is no explanation or use for these as far as I can tell and they don’t seem to be referenced from anywhere else in fog.
