@sebastian-roth I found a different article on this and got my answer. Has to do with Ubuntu updates that is causing my database connection to have problems. Thanks

@sebastian-roth totally understand on question about random database schema problem. Here is link to original question back in April. https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10005/your-database-connection-appears-to-be-invalid/9
I see Tom had responded and said it was a problem overnight when this happened back in April. Just wondering a little more on how program works. I understand the program to work where we download the new version OS version to server and is on premise and no updates or changes are made by anyone at FOG until I download newer versopm. Maybe I am wrong and that is not how works and with updates etc can affect my on premise server. Just maybe a lot of people were having this issue overnight and then had to do a reinstall or if developers/fog employees are working on version and changes were made it affects us. Nothing crucial just wondering if it is always something that breaks locally or if things can be affected by developers or fog employees. I can say nothing but great things and everything has worked great just wondering if way I am updating or installing affects how things work. Any info on this is great.

Pending Macs: It is safe to say just allow the Mac Addreses?

Hi,
Just wondering a couple things. We are currently on version 1.3.5-RC-11. Is it beneficial to update to newer version? Would like to get to most stable version instead of most recent if possible. So If I do the following command(see below) like I did to get to 1.3.5-RC-11 will it give me 1.5.10 or what version will it give me. I read the most stable version is 1.4.4 at this time. Any info on this would be great. Also, if a command to use to just get 1.4.4 would be great also if that is what I need to do. I have had to reinstall 1.3.5-RC-11 a couple times because of database schema was wrong. Reason why this happens? No biggy, just kinda of wondering background on this or why it may happen?

cd /root/fogproject
git checkout dev-branch
git pull
cd bin
./installfog.sh

Pending Mac Addresses. Seems to me we did not have as many of these in previous versions. So what is best way to handle these? Just allow them all? Any info on these would be awesome too!

Thanks!

Thank You!! Solved! Have a great weekend!

Sorry for this question I am not expert on commands in Ubuntu and want to make sure I am doing right. Best way to rerun installer. I have just been running the updater which would give me latest version but want to just stay at this version I have. 1.3.5r11. So instead of running below best way to rerun installer without updating. Thanks

cd /root/fogproject
git checkout dev-branch
git pull
cd bin
./installfog.sh

So this maybe a VMware question. We are running database on Ubuntu machine on a VM. 600 GB Thick Provision. So we have about 200GB used on the ubuntu Server but the VM says it is at capacity which is giving me this error where database will not start up.

Any suggestions from others that may have had this problem. Thinking it is a VM issue because the server itself is not full as far as I can see. 200GB used when I do a properties check. So one thing is I deleted a bunch of files yesterday and they seem to be gone and out of trash even. Is there any where that storage maybe taking up or something I am missing. I had another 200GB on there before yesterday. I was working on today and working fine and then all of suddent came to screen database appears invalid. Checked a couple things and seems to point to VM is full.

One side note related to this when our server is down and pxe is first to boot on the devices any good way to stop looping and restarting without booting into OS. Need to boot in OS and guessing there is a setting in fog or may have to just look at shutting off pxe for a bit. Luckily I have another fog server to point too until this is solved. Thanks for any info or suggestions anyone has!!

Thank You!

So I have multiple images that I have but putting new ones up on server. I don’t want to delete ones I know work until I am comfortable that new ones are working. Good way to hide the ones so I dont have a lot on front page? Not a huge concern but just wondering what lock button or any ideas. Thanks!

I get this with the windows 7 ones. Attached is pic of error if that helps. Thanks

Ok I will take a look more on my side. I have a couple other thoughts on maybe a naming issue that I may have changed. On a side note is there trouble with partitioning recently with new versions. Never had any issues until windows 10 but seems to not partition or play well for a few different reasons. Did some reading and sounds like you guys are working on? Just trying to confirm or maybe just on my end. Thanks

They were uploaded on a previous server and imported in. Imported right when I went to 1.3 and has worked all way up to 1.34. The images are still on server wondering if it is permissions. Just says no valid data on those so that is what I am trying to figure out.

Hi,

I had previous 1.34 loaded and was having issues with partitions not working so updated to 1.35 v 10 and seems to play better with some of my Windows 10 images but after update I have issues with Windows 7 images saying no valid data at end and can not deploy an image. Windows 7 images were working in 1.34. Suggestions? See below on what I am talking about. Thanks
