Unable to multicast; FOGMulticastManager fails to start

[Wayne Workman]

@ryanxplosion Yes, and the other?

[ryanxplosion]

@Wayne-Workman Same thing.

I’m just going to guess here but php-fpm is unavailable?

@Tom-Elliott said in Unable to multicast; FOGMulticastManager fails to start:

php-fpm

It appears to be running. Is this what you wanted me to check?

[ryanxplosion]

I just reinstalled Ubuntu and FOG again. The only thing I have done is import my hosts, groups, and images. FOGMulticastManager is still not running.

@ryanxplosion Is it a big deal since you just reinstalled to try Debian?

I’ve had far fewer issues with it.

[ryanxplosion]

@THEMCV The server I’m having issues with is my functioning server. I originally reinstalled Ubuntu on it because I had messed with so many things trying to get it to work that I felt more comfortable with a fresh install. I currently have no way of multicasting which isn’t a big deal right now since all of our labs have been recently updated, but it is still a feature we use often. I am also having issues with uploading new images now. Fails trying to update the database.

@ryanxplosion Honestly, try Debian 8 out and install FOG on it. Ubuntu I’ve had to tweak a lot and had multiple issues getting it to work right. Debian is good out of the box.

I would just try that and see if it works.

@ryanxplosion I’m trying to see if I can remote, I suspect it will take just a couple of minutes of time. Please check your “chat bubble”.
