@wayne-workman I’m sorry I literally know nothing about linux. What’s the context of that “sudo -i” command?

@wayne-workman I’m getting “permission denied” when trying to access /root/fogproject.

@wayne-workman So just change the password in that one text file, re-run the installation and it will copy the new password into all the appropriate areas?

@junkhacker Not invalid password but ACCESS DENIED

@junkhacker it’s not going to auto-copy by highlighting OUTSIDE of putty i’m sure. I have the password in a regular text file on the desktop. I copy it, switch to the putty terminal window, right-click (no menus or anything show up), hit enter and get “invalid password”.

I’m copying and pasting the password from the log file into the command prompt screen after typing “sudo password fog”. Incorrect password every time.

@george1421 I see no way to paste the password. CTRL-V doesn’t work. Right-Click- Paste is not available.

@george1421 So what do these FTP credentials do for FOG and why are they (possibly) hindering my imaging process?

@george1421 I was using CuteFTP so I’ll try putty. To clarify, this is what you’re talking about?

@george1421 I’ve tried logging in multiple times via FTP using that password but fails everytime. HOWEVER. I’m not convinced it’s not failing because I’m mis-typing it. (though I did copy and paste the password and it still failed.) I will add, images created by the engineer BEFORE ME are working perfectly fine. We have no problems pulling those images. Only the ones i’m creating are having issues.

@george1421 It’s been awhile since I posted because I was exploring other imaging options. Since this is established I really need to learn it.
So you last instructed me to check the /.fogsettings text file for the FTP password. I found it and it’s an extremely ridiculous string of alpha-numeric characters. Nothing that anybody would remember. Is this particular password used automatically by the system or is it suppose to MATCH the GUI password?

Can some one tell me what to do here please? I’ve been trying to resolve this for days now. I need to get six machines imaged TODAY.

@jgallo
That’s not the path to the images. All the images are under “/images” and the one I’m working with is under “/images/New_Windows_Test10-9”.

@jgallo I understand there is a credentials issue and that FOG will automatically move the image to the appropriate folder once that is resolved.
However, can I not just copy the files myself to the folder named for the image name?

@george1421 But that IS the image I created, just in the wrong folder?

@george1421 So the image is here??

@george1421 Once I stopped the CAPTURE task, the image deleted itself.

@george1421 Not that I’m aware of. I’m sitting right in front of the computer, nobodies on it but me. It’s running on Ubuntu. The login for the O.S. AND the FOG admin are both “FOG”.

@jgallo It shows the image was uploading though. The file size is 19.5Gb. Before when I was getting all the errors it was 615Mb.

@george1421 Well crud!
