      A previous sys admin setup fog (1.0.1 on Ubuntu 14.04) for my company a few years ago. We have had no issues until we just switched to new Dell optiplex 7040’s. Now when I try to inventory the computer so I can create an image it gets stuck on the sending of inventory info. Then if I try to update the kernel from the management website I get no results.

      I have searched around for a fix for several hours but I have had no luck. Any suggestions?

      thanks

        @inafog9 would you be willing to install trunk? While I know trunk is not “stable”. There where at least three versions between 1.0.1 and now. 1.2 is the current stable but you likely will have no luck on that version either.

        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)

            1.0.1 is pretty old.

            I know for a fact that FOG Trunk has no issues with the Optiplex 7040. We’ve been imaging them at work here recently.

            You might try 1.2.0, but it’s likely to have the same issues. I’d suggest upgrading to fog trunk if your willing. fog trunk is the developmental version, updates are pushed to it many, many times a day. And most feel it’s close to release.

                I’d recommend the Git or SVN methods. If you have trouble with the written instructions, there are videos in there too at the bottom.

                  @Wayne-Workman It appears I’m also having some issues connecting to nameservers. I have checked the normal host files and DNS but do not see anything that would cause this.

                    @inafog9 Which namesevers do you use? cat /etc/resolv.conf

                    Please post the full output of nslookup books.google.com as well! There might be a “DNS truncation” issue.

                      @Sebastian-Roth I’m getting a timeout on the nslookup and I can’t ping anything by name. I tried several config changes including using google’s dns.

                        @inafog9 Making changes in resolve.conf won’t do anything as it gets overwritten.

                        You need to change it in /etc/network/interfaces

                        Then you need to

                        sudo ifdown nameofinterface (eg eth0) && sudo ifup nameofinterface

                          @Quazz It appears that the interface file has the correct info. I also tried the ifdown command and still no luck.

                                @inafog9 Is it possible your network doesn’t allow you to defined your own Nameservers?

                                  @Tom-Elliott Not sure. I can ping nameservers from windows devices and servers.

                                    @inafog9 Are they set to get the same nameservers as your fogserver is though?

                                      @Tom-Elliott I’m looking around my windows domain controller and I can’t find those settings.

                                        @inafog9 What settings?

                                        The DNS is found under the network information in windows.

                                          @inafog9 Please set different DNS servers for testing. I have seen trouble with too big (and therefore truncated) DNS answers from the google DNS servers (the ones you have configured as well). Try opendns in your /etc/network/interfaces for example:

                                          ...
                                          dns-nameservers 208.67.222.222 208.67.220.220
                                          

                                          Then restart the network interface (sudo ifdown eth0 && sudo ifup eth0) and see if DNS lookup is better?!

                                          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)

                                            @Tom-Elliott I have tried my normal dns and also the google servers. I figured my normal dns could be could be an issue so I tried google.
