Fog server keeps going down
-
@george1421 Google drive…

@Tom-Elliott I agree this doesn’t make any sense. I wish I was making this up but in the end, I have no access to the server during the time that it is down until I tell vSphere to just reboot the VM. The console on vSphere is not able to commuincate and basically has the same result as when I try to use putty to remote in.
I can already tell you that my boss will not allow that, although I really do appreciate the offer. In a school district that would be too high of a security risk, unfortunately. Thank you though! -
@szecca1 Is the OS installed with a GUI?
Please help us build the FOG community with everyone involved. It's not just about coding - way more we need people to test things, update documentation and most importantly work on uniting the community of people enjoying and working on FOG! Get in contact with me (chat bubble in the top right corner) if you want to join in.
Web GUI issue? Please check apache error (debian/ubuntu: /var/log/apache2/error.log, centos/fedora/rhel: /var/log/httpd/error_log) and php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
Please support FOG if you like it: https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Support_FOG

@Tom-Elliott No Fedora server doesnt have a GUI
-
@szecca1 then the only thing I can think of is the console is blanked out, not necessarily unusable. Do you have a keyboard that you can press the space or a key to see if anything returns a display?
-
@Wayne-Workman Do you want me to do this?
-
@Tom-Elliott Yes we tried entering something and nothing is returned at all
-
@szecca1 I just walked in today and the server is not reachable. I figured before I reboot it I would see if you guys want me to do anything. I can ping the server and it responds but trying to putty into the server it just hangs and never connects.
-
@szecca1 Can you get to it through the hypervisor?
-
@Wayne-Workman I apologize I was trying to get a hold of my boss to log onto vSphere. When I go to the console, it asks for localhost login and then gives an error:
(38484.938838) Out of memory: kill process 2739 (httpd) score 104 or sacrifice child (38484.942704) killed process 2739 (httpd) total -vm:1247792kb, anon-rss: 412668kb, file-rss:0KB -
@Wayne-Workman I am holding off on rebooting for a little bit just so you guys can see that error message
-
@szecca1 It displays that error AT the login screen, or after?
-
@szecca1 Check the amount of free RAM.

What does
topsay for memory usage in httpd? -
@Wayne-Workman as soon as the localhost login screen comes up, I click and that error message comes up.

How much RAM does the server have?
-
@Wayne-Workman I can’t type anything in as the screen wont allow me to even log into the machine until I reboot it
-
@Wayne-Workman We set up the server with 4096 MB
-
@Wayne-Workman But it says the memory overhead is 88MB but not sure what that means
-
@szecca1 So it’s simple… the server ran out of RAM - or - has dynamic RAM assigned and VMWare tried to smoosh it down a little to make room for other VMs that have a need… I think.
