Multicast won't start
-
I have went to Image Management> Multicast Image> and created a Multicast with the information I wanted. I only used two computers as a test, but it failed. I also created a group and added the computers that I wanted to multicast from there, however I get the same indication that Pascal received. It stops on the screen he indicated in his screenshot.
I have restarted the service with no changes. Every time I go and look at the tasks, it shows that the task is in progress even though nothing is happening.
When I look at the logs, it looks like things worked as they should from what I can tell. Please see the attached.
It wouldn’t let me attached the .txt file, so I’ll post the log here.

@Wayne-Workman that is the IP address of the FOG Server.
-
@Towndrunk Well, that’s where it’s trying to send the multicast data to, and that will never, ever work.
Go here:
Web Interface -> FOG Configuration -> FOG Settings -> Multicast Settings -> FOG_MULTICAST_ADDRESS
And set that to
0
then restart the FOGMulticastManager and try again. -
@Wayne-Workman I believe that is where it was by default, and it wasn’t working. A co-worker made the change and it still wasn’t working, but he never put it back. I’ll put it back now and try again as soon as the update is done.

I went in to Image Management> Multicast Image and created a multicast with the following settings. I added one to the multicast and it was found and sat at the same screen, then added the second and it did the same. This is the same indication I have got in the past, however the log says that it is running.

@Towndrunk The multicast address is now completely missing from the command, did you set it to
0
or blank? -
@Wayne-Workman Multicast address on the sender will only display IF the multicast address in the global settings is defined.
-
@Wayne-Workman I set it to 0
FOG_UDPCAST_INTERFACE: eth0
FOG_UDPCAST_STARTINGPORT: 64148
FOG_MULTICAST_MAX_SESSIONS: 64
FOG_UDPCAST_MAXWAIT : 4
FOG_MULTICAST_ADDRESS: 0
FOG_MULTICAST_PORT_OVERRIDE: 0
FOG_MULTICAST_DUPLEX : FULL_DUPLEX -
@Wayne-Workman Hey sorry for the delay, I did what you wanted and tried to multicast 4 laptops this morning, it seems to work!
I’m gonna tried with more computer later today!
-
@Towndrunk Can you please try the below steps that I posted for the other guy now?
-
@Wayne-Workman Once the multicast job is done, is it supposed to disapear from the DB ‘multicastSessions’?
-
@Pascal-Gazaille It’s supposed to be marked as done, at least. There’s been work in this area, I’m going to defer to @Tom-Elliott on that question.
-
We’re at 1.3.0-RC-8, which I know addresses issues on multicast closing. This should be fixed now, so YES it should. NO need to defer, please update and see if all is well.
-
@Wayne-Workman I went in and followed the steps listed below. I’m assuming that these are the steps that you were asking me to do?
mysql> DELETE FROM `multicastSessions` WHERE 1; Query OK, 15 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> DELETE FROM `multicastSessionsAssoc` WHERE 1; Query OK, 2 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> DELETE FROM `tasks` WHERE `taskTypeID` = 8; Query OK, 42 rows affected (0.01 sec)
I then restarted the service, and tested again. I got the same results.

@Towndrunk Can you repeat the steps to clean the DB, then update to RC-8 (installing RC-8 will restart fog multicast manager as part of the upgrade), then try again?
-
@Wayne-Workman I can do that. I am already running RC-8 though. I ran the upgrade this morning before doing the steps to clean the DB. If you want me to, I can repeat the process now.
Running Version 1.3.0-RC-8

@Towndrunk No, don’t bother then.
What OS is fog running on?
