@Tom-Elliott Thanks .

But this has not solved my problem .
Update Database after capturing is only success if i edit rights from root to fogproject during capture on the folder : images/dev/macad

I’ll try to relaunch installer to check .

Hello ,

I’ve an infrastructure with 1 fogserver and several separate nodes . All was perfectly working but :

Since update from 1.5.9.x to 1.5.10.1629, i met an error when capturing images .

Update database failed ; failed to open stream …

I met this issue before and solved it , but in this case there is something i don’t understand :

-Each time i launch a capture : the folder /images/dev/‘macaddresscaptured’ is created with root : root privileges .
If i edit rights during capture and do : chown -R fogproject:root /images/dev/macaddresscaptured ,
Update Database is successfull after capturing .

??
I never met this error before , what i’m doing wrong .
I’ve Check all the KB’s on UpdateDatabase Failed, and all password in my config seem’s to be ok .

For information The error returned :
Error returned : Type: 2, file /var/www/html/fog/lib/fog/fogftp.class.php LIne : 714, Message ftp_put(/images:dev/‘macaddresscaptured’): failed to open stream : NO such file or directory , Host : ‘Ip ofnodeserver’, Username; fogproject

Thanks in advanced guys .

Hello All :
In complement of this :
https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOG_security

I put here my multicast rules for iptables (implemented into my separate node )

iptables -A -s 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A FORWARD -s 224.0.0.0/4 -d 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A OUTPUT -d 224.0.0.0/4 -j ACCEPT

i think i’ve found the solution .
