Hostnamechanger not working
-
@gwhitfield Yeah that was the same issue I was having and had to deploy the disabled service and start after sysprep to overcome. Now I agree that the old server didnt do that and nor did mine, but once I went to using trunk I had to switch to this method.
-
I think the FOG gods are laughing at me. I uninstalled client v10.5 installed my oldest client back from 2010 with the encrypted password in hostnamechanger.dll and as soon as I started the service it renamed and restarted the host. I’m tempted to stay with it and use it for my master image - it works awesome like it always has. Not sure of the downside to staying with old client though… any thoughts?
-
@gwhitfield The old client has several security issues. You switched to the new client right after we did a major upgrade of it, so these kinds of bugs are to be expected. If you can wait until tommorow, I can take a look at this then.
-
No worries! I’m not complaining, FOG has never let us down!
-
Confirmed the bug exists. For some reason Windows isn’t receiving the client’s shutdown request.
-
Bug found, and patched. Long story short, Zazzles was killing the service right before it was about to run the shutdown command (a.k.a a race condition). See https://github.com/FOGProject/zazzles/commit/f7e199c93f8ac894b495d336355afae8674d6e6f for the fix.
I’ll post here when we release v0.10.6 (more work needs to be done to fix some of the MSI issues first). Thank you for reporting this.
-
v0.10.6 should fix this issue. Can you verify?
-
@Jbob - sorry didn’t see this for so long. I will test as soon as I can but it may be several days yet due to other commitments. Hopefully someone else will give it a go much sooner if they haven’t already!

@gwhitfield There are some other issues going on, the issue is no longer present in the current FOG Client, they are server side issues at this point. Please follow this thread for updates: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7382/fogservice-errors-for-all-modules

@Wayne-Workman Thank you, I’ll post if I see anything else happening.
