Bugs in FOG 0.33
-
While testing my custom init.gz, I found an issue in the Quick Image system. This, from what I can tell right now, affects all of the PXE options to perform the Quick Image (Full host registration, quick image, etc…) as the function it calls does not exist. I see a function called createImagePackage(…) but the function performed within the files is not relative and it’s not pointing to the class. I’m going to play a bit until I figure this part out, but until then, just wanted to post this issue.
-
I was able to correct for the issue with Quickimage, but it did require me to do two things.
First thing I had to do was edit
{fogwebdir}/service/hostlookupbymac.php
Here’s what I did/changed to this file:
From:
53 $tmp;
54 if( createImagePackage( $conn, $imageMember, “”, $tmp, false ) )
To:
53 $tmp;
54 $Host = new Host($hid);
55 if ( $Host->createImagePackage(1,“AutoRegTask”,true,true,true) )
56 //if( createImagePackage( $conn, $imageMember, “”, $tmp, false ) )
Then in file:
{fogwebdir}/lib/fog/Host.class.php
Go to and comment out Line 528.
Then all worked well. Including the Main GUI.
I don’t like commenting lines within a class that was, for the most part, working already, but I had to for quickimage as it’s trying to assign, for logging purposes I guess, the username to create the task. When it’s quick image, it doesn’t know who the user is so it spits out an error and will not create the task, the PXE File for the host will get created, but no database task gets created.
I’m guessing a similar change will need to be made in the Full Host registration script. -
I made the required changes to auto.register.php to allow imaging and rather than posting all the individual files, I created the tarball that contains all my changes to the UI. Hopefully it works for everybody.

There are still things in the UI that I’m aware of, but it’s a systematic process and I might be slow, but I will keep people posted.
EDIT: Reposted file, if you downloaded it already, please redownload and replace your auto.register.php file as I made added a class when it wasn’t needed. (SORRY GUYS)
Thanks,

Found an issue where imaging tasks aren’t being inserted into the imaging log. So there’s no record of what was imaged or when. I’m looking into what forces it to happen. It looks to be After completion when things get written to Post_Stage3.php, but I don’t know how to track that.

I’ll be honest I’m being lazy and haven’t read the whole thread so apologies if this has already being covered.
Some background, I’ve used Fog on a Ubuntu server since 0.27 and love it so thank you. I’ve being having issues uploading an image from a Windows x64 machine with a Samsung SSD 840 drive, but can deploy my original x32 Win 7 image to it. In my attempts to figure it out I upgraded my old 0.32 Fog setup to the 0.33 beta but am still having issues. Any help would be appreciated.
While trying to get this machine to upload I have found a few bugs so apologies if this has already being covered:
[LIST]
[]on the update kernel page when selecting a new kernel the following is displayed: FOG DEBUG: FOGPageManager: Class: FOGConfigurationPage, Method: kernel, Error: Method not found in class, defaulting to index()
[]When upgrading from 0.32 with a database full of clients, the images tab displays an error as you can now state the OS ID in the image and not the host (believe it has already being covered and I sorted that my self)
[]Just a note I had configured a proxy and port on 0.32, when upgrading it lost these setting. You can simple reinput them but its just something I noticed.
[]Again when upgrading, all my clients had the join active directory tick box ticked, after the upgrade this tick was removed. Again clicking the tick box solves this but just a note.
[]The disk usage graph is no longer working on the dashboard and says failed to connect to defaultmember, clicking this link displays this error: FOG DEBUG: FOGPageManager: Failed to Render Page: Node: hwinfo, Error: No FOGPage Class found for this node. You should try the old “includes” style management code [U][COLOR=#0066cc]found here[/COLOR][/U]
[]On an upgrade from 0.32 all my groups and their member ships have being deleted during the upgrade.
[/LIST]
If I find anything else I will gladly update the thread and test any new builds. If any could help with my problem at the top I’d be grateful.Cheers

Download and install my version of fog.
[url]https://mastacontrola.com/fog_0.33b.tar.bz2[/url]
It has all the classes for the kernel update and many more.
Also, the Host Table does not contain the hostOS field anymore, so if you’re importing all your old, make sure the file doesn’t contain a reference to hostOS. It may even be a part of the fog 33 files, but I haven’t looked that far yet.
The graph does work, but you have to have a pointer to /images from what I can tell. Make sure storage management is properly setup as well. Also the link in my build for the server information works.
Sorry Edited for the correct link, missed the b after 33.

Thanks for this I’ll definitely update my FOG. Found a few more bits, not sure if its already being brought up:
[LIST]
[]Cant make groups of hosts any more (no links in groups menu)
[]Host registration from the PXE boot menu does not work, it gets stuck in a loop of sending inventory
[*]when adding a host from the web interface, clicking the tick box for AD integration does not pull the information through and when you go back in to the host the information is not there. If you click the AD tick box here it does work. (hope that made sense)
[/LIST]
I’ll download your link now and see what’s what.Thanks
-Edit-
I downloaded your version of fog and still have no luck imaging this drive, I checked and it is a advanced format 4k drive. It did fix the group issue though. Not had chance to check the rest of it yet.
-
To my knowledge, support for 4k drives is in the works, but not yet implemented. I’ll take a look at kernel configurations, but as I don’t have any 4k drives to test with, I’m afraid I’d just be shooting blind. Even if I can get the system to read the disk, I doubt I’d be able to implement, right away, enough changes quickly enough to actually support recreating the disk partitioning properly for deployment.
I’m not saying I won’t try, but I need to learn more about it.

[quote=“Bill Arlofski, post: 10849, member: 1799”]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.[/quote]
While I’m sure you’ve by and gone figured this out by now,
The reason you were seeing the OS field issue on the Image management page is because of the change From 0.32 to 0.33,
The OS type field is now assigned to the Image rather than per each host as was in the past. You’re seeing the error’s because the OS field on your images hasn’t been set. To fix the error’s, all you need to do is click on the image and assign the proper OS for it.

All,
I was able to get printerAssoc to load from the group fields. However, that being said, the printer’s don’t load to the hosts. This is a bug I’m currently looking into. Hopefully I’ll be able to report back soon.
-
I figured out the problem and was able to tidy up my code to be way more inline with Blackout’s original. I’m still working on the default printer part, so when I figure that out I’ll push the updates, everything else, for now, is working.
-
I’m going to push updates for HostManagementPage, GroupManagementPage, PrinterManagementPage, SnapinManagementPage, and Host.class.php and Printer.class.php and fog.host.edit.js
Edited fog.host.edit.js to allow the checkbox for default printer function similar to radio button. I just think a checkbox is more appropriate as we’re choosing which printer is default.
Though the field is there, as a checkmark, the default value is not set yet.
Found the issue with adding a printer in Printer.class.php that affected Host.class.php in that Printer was requiring name, port, id, and model, which isn’t true when the printer is of network type, it only requires name and id, and if it’s iPrint, it only requires name, port, and id. This allows the addPrinter() function to work properly.
Also corrected the snapin and printer portions of Host.class.php to only insert one instance of a printer. You shouldn’t be able to put 4 of the same printer on a system, and now you can’t on the management system.
Will post in a few minutes.
EDIT: r914 is up (913 updated fine, but I had an unintentional edit on another file)
-
Ur doing some fantastic work tom going to pull down r914 and have a play.
-
Finally, after how many day’s of working with Host Printers (notice not printer management) I finally got default printer’s figured out, though I’m sure it’s not how it was intended. Default Printers, IMHO should be up to the host to manage, so I created two new method’s in the Host.class.php file that Updates/Gets Default printers for that host. I don’t know, and probably won’t try, to get this done on the group side. As long as the group has the printers, that’s what truly matters right? I’ll post update tomorrow.

Hi,
Firstly thanks for all the hard work on this, 0.33 seems to be coming along nicely!
I’m currently playing about 0.33B Rev 925 on Ubuntu 12.04, and the Plugin Management page isn’t working yet. When you click ‘Activate Plugin’ (or ‘Installed Plugin’) you get:
[B]“FOG DEBUG: FOGPageManager: Class: PluginManagementPage, Method: activate, Error: Method not found in class, defaulting to index()”[/B]
I noticed a previous post about the same issue a few pages back, but doesn’t seem like anyone responded. Is anyone working on a fix for this yet? The capone plugin is a massive help for me and I’d love to give it a run in 0.33.
Thx/Br

How is it that you get to the Plugin Management page? I know I should probably know that, but I don’t see even a menu option for that.
Am I missing something, or are you going to the link directly via:
[url]http://<FOGIP>/fog/management/index.php?node=plugin[/url]
With that, I didn’t even notice that part of the process and Am seeing what you’re referring to. I don’t know the original intent of this class but will take a look into it.
-
In the dashboard go to FOG Configuration > FOG Settings
Under the ‘Plugin System’ heading, change the FOG_PLUGINSYS_ENABLED option from 0 to 1 and hit save. You should then see a cog icon in the dashboard that links to the plugin page.
It’s when you click the Installed or activate plugin links the error pops up.
Thanks/Br

Gotcha. See Even I don’t know everything
-
Added the methods for the installed and activate screens. They don’t do anything, yet and I don’t quite know what they’re supposed to be doing, but I will look into it over this weekend, okay?
-
yeah sure no worries, thank you!
Thanks/Br
