Ok, i figured out my issue, i had changed the ip address in option 66 in dhcp server options but neglected to change it in scope options. Once that was changed, it connected. Do i need it in both locations or just scope options?

However after i start fogging a computer as a test, it error’s out saying something to the effect of the image is corrupt.

Im thinking of doing another migrate of my images from the old server to the new, can i just migrate the images since everything else was already migrated and changed?

@george1421 Yes, i changed the ip address in the fog management gui places. Attached is the photo of my pxe error. The only thing NOT in the picture is that where it says PXE-E11: ARP timeout is where TFTP stayed for 4-5 seconds.

Can’t get the image to upload, this is what it says after the client gets an ipaddress.

TFTP (for about 4-5 seconds)

PXE-E11: ARP timeout

PXE-E11: ARP timeout
PXE-E38: TFTP cannot open connection
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM

@george1421 I’m going to try that 1st thing in the morning, thanks.

Currently have a fog server setup using and old desktop with centos 7 on it. Just upgraded fog to the current stable level and all is working fine.

Setup a new server with a beefed up desktop running centos 7 on it. Installed the latest stable fog and then went through the migration steps to copy over my images and db to this new server. Looks like everything copied over fine.

After this, i went to change the ip addresses, since the migration copied over all of the old server ip references. Also changed everything in the fog management gui and changed my existing Windows dhcp server to use the new ip address. I think i changed them in all of the locations but when i tried to test it, the client gets an ip address, but then it shows
TFTP for about 4-5 seconds,
then it shows PXE-E11: ARP timeout
PXE-E38: TFTP cannot open connection
PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM

I’ve read and read about this and have troubleshot for 2 days with no luck. Im a very newbie linux person and don’t know anything about it or how to manipulate it with commands except to type from what i read on the screen or a printed out paper. I wanted to try the updateIP.sh script as that seems to say that it will do EVERYTHING for you, BUT cannot for the life of me figure out how to run it. I was able to download it, from github, using curl but when i tried to run it, it said permission denied.

I’ve confused myself over these 2 days so much that i’ve started a fresh install, so i need, what i’m sure is EASY for anyone else, all of the COMPLETE steps to help ease my pain.

Thanks in advance for helping a guy that is linux dumb and LOST.

Can you please explain how to rerun the installer? I ran an upgrade so i thought that would fix my issues.

Had a virus at one of my schools, so i moved my fog server to that school after it was disconnected from the rest of the network. After a few hours i was able to get it working. 2 months later i need to put it back at the central location and i cannot get the clients to get past PXE-E32: TFTP Open Timeout. I have since ran an upgrade hoping it would correct the issue, but its still happening. I can get in the web interface and i have changed everywhere i can think of but i’m really a linux dummy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

CentOS 7 and Fog 1.4.4

We were having a read error also, changed to the 2nd image type and it worked but created a large file. So, we then changed it back to 1st image type and selected Partclone GZip as the Image Manager, everything worked fine for us after doing this.
