yeah, but only with CLI on the server

some roughly written history is in the history table.

mysql
use fog
select * from history;
or
select * from history where longtext like '%some image name here%';

Just simply doing the select * statement, you’ll see the sort of entries being made. You can then format a like search for the field you want and the sort of data you’re looking for.

AND… I can’t be positive on my SQL syntax above… but I think you get the idea…

check for a bios update and/or use undionly.kkpxe instead of undionly.kpxe (undionly.kkpxe works better with buggy bios/pxe rom configurations)

I have a few questions about your network.

1.)What network switches do you have?
2.)Is STP enabled?
3.)Are the host and server on different VLANS?

There is no good reason to still be using the 10.04 LTS branch. There are newer LTS branches out. However, this all comes down to personal setup and preference, and does not impact FOG.

This worked! Thanks Tom. From what I can tell the first time I downloaded this kernel something went awry although I got no error messages and the file was possibly corrupted, only 4655 bytes?. (I used a -no-certificate-check with wget, if i dont use the no cert, i get an SSL error) I noticed this a.m. it was much smaller than a kernel file should be. So this time I downloaded it in my Windows browser and pushed it up to my Fog box via FTP. Success. Thanks a gain Tom!

I’m assuming this issue is happening on both XP and Windows 7? Or is it limited to only Windows 7 machines?

I ask because it could be a permissions issue. I don’t know much about how to install local printers to a host as I haven’t had to play with them too much. All of our printers are on a printer server, so we use the network printer option for our systems. It works, mostly, but once in a while we get the IDS Message, and these are on Windows 7 systems. Once we acknowledge those messages they install fine. We don’t get those messages or issues on our Windows XP machines though.

It makes me think the printer is trying to install as the local user rather than the Administrator of the system.

Do you have auto updates enabled or have you recently updated your mysql? I’ll look through the code to see what the exact statement is and why it might be broken now even though it worked before.

It looks like it’s at [url]http://freeghost.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/freeghost/tags/0.31/packages/web/service/auto.register.php?revision=701&view=markup[/url] line 62, but I don’t see anything wrong with the statement.

Look at your /var/www/fog/service/auto.register.php and see if it’s been modified recently and check your apache logs to see if there are any errors about the PHP.

I don’t have much else for you at this point.

I think there is another spot in the php.ini file that needs to be updated. Also, FOG keeps me logged in for days if I stay at a screen that refreshes itself, like the home page showing the bandwitch graphs, or the active tasks screen.

If I leave it on something like the hosts listing, it times out after a few hours.

Little late to the party, but I am also seeing this type of issue on our main Windows XP image. After sysprep is done, fog services will not fire. Fog.log shows the following:

[CODE]

[/CODE]

A temporary solution I have is to tell sysprep to run the net stop “Fog Service” and net start “Fog Service” commands on first login after the imaging is done, but this still fails when trying to join the domain. So my current solution would be to add a batch script that runs any time the computer logs in to restart the service.
