TFTP issues, but fixable...?

[quote=“astrouga, post: 8526, member: 907”]BTW, the solution ullawolf1 suggested works really well:

"So tftpd-hpa starts “to early”. You can fix this by editing the /etc/rc.local and add the line

[CODE]/bin/sleep 30 && /etc/init.d/tftpd-hpa restart[/CODE]

to restart the daemon after 30 seconds."

Sweet - added that now so I don’t need to remember. I get so deep into these things, then months later I totally forget what I did in the first place I had to come back here again to check!

This happens to us frequently. Create a launcher and set it to automatically run on after boot. Also, turning off the GUI seemed to help oddly.

Has anyone in this thread found this issue with 0.33b? Maybe I can append/sed the command into the installation so nobody has to worry about this!

This is not really a FOG issue, it’s an Ubuntu 12.04 issue in how they start the daemons before the interface has an IP bound to it.

Brilliant!! I was facing restoring my aging Ubuntu 10.04 image. Thanks astrouga!:)

Glad it was helpful.

Funny to read this now. This is the reason I switched from using a Ubuntu server install to a plain Debian install. Overall I’ve still been happier with Debian, but good to know this was nothing I broke.

I think the Linux community is abandoning UpStart altogether and instead going to use Systemd. I know Ubuntu had hesitation, believing Upstart was a better system, but this problem goes to show you it had its flaws

Just wanted to add that I needed this fix on clean install of Debian 7.5 and fog 1.1.0 to get the TFTP server talking to my clients.
