Deploying Single Snapins to Group All

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK The strangeness of what you’re seeing seems to be odd for sure, but not the end of the world right now I suppose.

Can you provide your apache error logs after going to the Active Tasks page? When pages go white as you’re describing it usually indicates a syntax issue, or there was a memory usage issue. If it is syntax related, chances are it will point us to the issue so I can provide a fast fix for the problem.

@Tom-Elliott I pulled and updated my installation again. Now I do no longer reproduce the blank page on Active Tasks page.

The first problem I have still exists. I can submit a Single Snapin to a group. The Snapin Tasks are showed on the Active Tasks page. I can submit another Single Snapin to the same group. There are no error messages, but the second Single Snapin does not show up under Active Tasks page. I only see the Tasks for the first submit.

@MarkusK said in Deploying Single Snapins to Group All:

still exists

Anyone?

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK have you updated?

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott It’s maybe two weeks ago since. Should I give it another try?

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK Sure. Just make sure you’re on dev-branch.

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott Thanks, I’ll give dev-branch a try next week.

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott I upgraded to

Running Version 1.4.0
SVN Revision: 6069

but the problem is still there. The second time I submit a single snapin to the same group, there is no Task visible under “Active Snapin Tasks”. Only the first time I submit a single snapin, the Tasks are created.

Looking for the missing tasks, I found out, that there are tasks visible under “Active Tasks”, but the Image field is empty.

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK Why would “image” be visible or not?

Essentially, the tasks link into a snapin job. Those jobs are what are used to determine what’s available for the host to use.

Either it’s working, or it’s not working.

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott I did some more tests. All snapins deploy to the host, but they are not correctly displayed under “Active Tasks” or incomplete under “Active Snapin Tasks” (The Image name is missing, when submitting a single snapin task to a group".

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK the image name is not important if the tasking is a snapin tasking.

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott Image name sounds logical and is not so necessary. I only prefer to see the active snapin tasks and I wonder why they execute but I can’t see them under “Active Snapin Tasks”.

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK I can only imagine the “SnapinTasks” table is filled with erroneous data.

You could test this theory by: (It will remove any snapin history of course.)

TRUNCATE TABLE `fog`.`snapinTasks`;
TRUNCATE TABLE `fog`.`snapinJobs`;
DELETE FROM `fog`.`tasks` WHERE `taskTypeID` IN (12, 13);
DELETE FROM `fog`.`snapinAssoc` WHERE `saHostID` NOT IN (SELECT `hostID` FROM `fog`.`hosts`) OR `sSnapinID` NOT IN (SELECT `saSnapinID` FROM `fog`.`sID`);

Because of all the “changes” I’m suggesting, I would highly suggest getting a backup of the database before performing these actions. This can be done from FOG Configuration Page->Configuration Save->Export

[MarkusK]

@Tom-Elliott Does this also delete the Active Snapin Jobs in the queue or just the history?

[Tom Elliott]

@MarkusK Entirely.

[MarkusK]

@tom-elliott

DELETE FROM `fog`.`snapinAssoc` WHERE `saHostID` NOT IN (SELECT `hostID` FROM `fog`.`hosts`) OR `sSnapinID` NOT IN (SELECT `saSnapinID` FROM `fog`.`sID`);

Returns #1146 - Table ‘fog.sID’ doesn’t exist
