We use Porteus Kiosk for our open enrollment process. instead of inserting a USB stick and installing the kiosk, I would like to install it from PXE.
If someone could help me with this it would be greatly appreciated.

After uploading the FOG Banner image, the fields are empty for both:
FOG_CLIENT_BANNER_IMAGE
FOG_CLIENT_BANNER_SHA
in the GUI.

When accessing the user reports section I get the following message:

Could I please have Wiki access?
Thanks.

the Force Reboot option does not update the DB “hostEnforce” value stays at ‘0’ if you manually set it to ‘1’ in the database the GUI shows it checked and unchecking it returns the value to ‘0’ as expected.

The browse for file dialogue window does not appear.

Keep up the good work the new interface looks amazing!

Is there any way that I can see what fog clients are having issues with the fogserver?
I have come across multiple clients recently that have not been checking in for user reports. A simple resetting of the Encryption Data in the GUI fixed the issue. If there was a report I could run that displayed the last successful check-in of the clients I think that would help.

@sebastian-roth yes I believe that was the case. I don’t remember the record count as I already purged data older than 30 days. I set up a SQL event that runs daily.

DELETE from userTracking WHERE utDate < now() - interval 30 DAY;

I can now run the reports

any time I try and use the user tracking to find what PC a user is logged into I get:

Service Unavailable
The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.

The apache error.log:

[Wed Apr 07 09:39:23.233725 2021] [proxy_fcgi:error] [pid 23644] (70007)The timeout specified has expired: [client 192.168.10.170:49336] AH01075: Error dispatching request to :, referer: http://10fogserver.xxxxxxx.com/fog/management/index.php?node=report

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 have a client @ a remote site that is repeating:

The only thing I see logs: access_log:

any suggestions?

I have already checked and made sure /fog/ is the web_root in the gui.

@the_ccm

I tried this but get an error on the client when selecting the rescue cd option:

docache... Operation not permitted (http://ipxe.org/410c613c)

maybe a permission issue on /var/www/utils folder ? mine is root:root 755

also check http://ipxe.org/410c613c

Permissions are root:root 755 and I still get the error.
What Linux distro are you using? I am using Centos 7

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

@sebastian-roth said in Fog Version 1.5.9.62 hostSecToken problem:

Have you checked the list of

I am not sure where that is anymore. is that in the host settings under the mac address box?

@jj-fullmer I will have to try this when I have more time because simply copying the ipxe.efi from fog over to the uefi partition works great for when the machine is on the network, but if its not connected to the LAN it wont boot to windows its caught in an IPXE boot loop.

@sebastian-roth
Here is the php-fpm logs
I searched the MAC address in the database and found it twice.

MariaDB [fog]> SELECT * FROM `hostMAC` WHERE `hmMAC` IN (SELECT `hmMAC` FROM `hostMAC` GROUP BY `hmMAC` HAVING COUNT(`hmMAC`) > 1);
Empty set (0.00 sec)

I am still reasearching the 500 error.

Thanks.

I deleted a Lenovo PC from fog and then did a quick registration and inventory, Imaged the PC and it gets a token. Not sure why this XPS is not.

@Greg-Plamondon Just pushed the fixed 1.5.9.63.

Awsome!
Appreciate your work!
