@mp12 I noticed your topic is marked as solved when its not really solved you are just using a work around.

@Joe-Schmitt said in Trunk 5735 PC doesnt restart after joining the domain.:

This issue has been addressed in v0.11.2. Please test when you get a chance.

The Update worked for me Joe, Thanks!

Thanks @Wayne-Workman

@sebastian-roth I don’t know how that happened but I copied the srvpublic.crt from a backup and it is fixed.

Thanks for all the help

I am trying to deploy snapins from our Storage nodes and I am getting an error in the fog.log.

Thanks Tom for helping me troubleshoot this.

Here is a Video showing an example.

I prefer Centos so my instructions are based on Centos.

# yum update && yum install conspy

Follow the instructions here to modify the Init Image:
Modifying the Init Image

Once you have the init image extracted and mounted, add your ssh key.

cd /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir
cd root
mkdir .ssh
/bin/echo "==yoursshkeystringgoesbetweenthequotes==" >> .ssh/authorized_keys

copy Conspy to the image:

cp /usr/bin/conspy /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/bin
cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncurses.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libncursesw.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64
cp /usr/lib64/libtinfo.so.x.x /var/www/{html,}/fog/service/ipxe/initmountdir/lib64

replace x in libncurses++.so.x with the version of libcurses you have installed.
Follow the instruction on how to recompress the image and you’re done.

ssh to the PC and login as root.
run the conspy command to view the progress.

@Wayne-Workman contents of /tmp/whoami.txt is “root”

@wayne-workman
Thanks I will truncate the snapins.sHash table.

UPDATE snapins SET sHash=NULL;

Re: Using Conspy to View remote PC imaging progress

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you!

I noticed that the fog version after the upgrade was not showing:

After I manually changed the fogstorage password in MySQL the versions started populating for the storage nodes that were upgraded but not for the storage nodes that were not upgraded.
is it possible that the upgrade corrupted the fogstorage MySQL password in the database on upgade or was it the mysql dump that was generated by Configuration Save> Export Database in the fog gui?

The more I think about it it would have to be the MySQL dump… I installed fog on a new Centos 8 build and imported the database after installing fog.

snapins are now downloading with the correct file sizes.

Thank you everyone for helping me with this issue!

@sebastian-roth Thanks for that, The PC in question was in the pending hosts.
After approving it joined the domain as expected.

I figured it out… I must have screwed up some permissions on the web_root so I removed /var/www/html/fog/ and re-installed fog and all is well…

Thanks!

I just wanted to update the forums incase anyone else came across this issue.
I ended up changing the settings /etc/xinetd.d/tftp to adjust the block size.

Old:
server_args     = -s /tftpboot
New:
server_args     = -B 1350 -s /tftpboot
