Advanced Menu Issue(s)

Junkhacker

This is most likely caused by an invalid formatted advanced menu.

that is why i wanted to see the output of that url

Hi,

i have pretty the same issue with 7671, with older trunk versions i could use my old menu, since latest trunk update its broken for me.
This is my old menu:

isset ${userID} && goto do_me || goto MENU
:do_me
initrd http://${fog-ip}/iso/win7_dialog.iso
chain memdisk iso raw || goto MENU
:MENU

Whats wrong with it?

@x23piracy are you seeing the exact same error as @TreyBentley ?

Sebastian Roth

@x23piracy Not sure what you are trying to achieve with the first four lines of your menu script. Removing those make the menu work for me instantly!

Andy Abplanalp

@Junkhacker correct me if I’m wrong but wouldn’t 7671 be after @Tom-Elliott fixed the sanitization fields? I had this issue as well and just went to my Advanced menu and clicked “save” to update it. Cleared out the ampersand issue for me and started working right away.

Junkhacker

@Andy-Abplanalp that’s what i wanted to see, if it was the sanitization issue.

x23piracy

@Junkhacker hmmm no really the same:

but i tried advanced some hours ago and could remember that i also had error with it, i just thougth its the same.

Junkhacker

@x23piracy you need to check the values in your advanced menu settings. there was a field sanitization issue that’s been resolved, but you may have invalid data saved. check what should be your “&” symbols

TreyBentley

@junkhacker, The result is of http://fog.IP/fog/service/ipxe/advanced.php:

#!ipxe

@Sebastian-Roth Ich Idiot ;)… stupid me, copy & paste issue

Junkhacker

@TreyBentley looks like you don’t actually have a menu created. what is listed in your advanced menu field in fog settings?

TreyBentley

@Junkhacker , Well, yeah, nothing is there; but I didn’t think that would matter when I gave fog.reginput’s “Menu Show with” either Advanced Options or Advanced Login Required. Obviously I’m not understanding the boot menu configurations properly yet. I thought placing those with one of those options would populate the Advanced Menu. If not, where’s me some good documentation on it? ^_^

Junkhacker

these features are pretty new and i’m not sure how documented they are. have you checked the wiki? perhaps i could help you if you told me what your goal was.

TreyBentley

@Junkhacker, no problem.

The goal is for the computer to pxe boot to a menu where the only option is to Boot to hard drive. However, if ESC (or other assigned hotkey) is pressed, then the Login Screen appears. After a Tech enters valid credentials, they’ll go to the Advanced Menu, where they can access the other, pre-defined menu items, like Host Registration, Quick Image, etc.

Junkhacker

@TreyBentley have you tried “Hide Menu” in FOG PXE Boot Menu Configuration ?

TreyBentley

@Junkhacker,
Yes, but I didn’t find that to be password protected…

Junkhacker

@TreyBentley i’m pretty sure that choosing most of the options on the first menu require logging in anyway

TreyBentley

@Junkhacker,

I’m sorry. It is indeed password protected; with and without that checkbox checked, ironically. We’ll live with that for now. Thanks. At least that was that simple. Now, time to go researching kernel panic issues.

Junkhacker

@TreyBentley if you have any trouble with resolving fog kernel panics, just start a new thread and we’ll help you out.
