I pressed Y because I was unable to enter one…

Hi,

I’m using:

Distributor ID: Ubuntu
Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.2 LTS
Release:        14.04
Codename:       trusty

During the installation of SVN 4193 I’m unable to enter a SQL password and afterwords I get the question to enter one.

 * Installing package: mysql-server............................OK
 * Installing package: mysql-client............................OK
...
 * Did you leave the mysql password blank during install? (Y/n) y

An other problem I had was that there was no content on http://fog-server/fog/ interface
The content of the interface is been dropped in: /var/www/html/fog and not in /var/www/fog
I recalled from previous versions that the content was on both locations. So after copying it 1 level down I was able to use the fog interface.

Kind regards.
Johan

Tom,
I went back to my default snapshot of an empty ubuntu server 14.04.02 LTE and installed SVN Version: 3504.
After installation, I added my hosts from an export file, added the location plugin and created a location called KB.

Next i created a group DEMO. In the group demo I added 2 hosts. KB-AS1-01 and KB-AS1-02.
Next I went to the general tab and chose the KB location.
I pressed update button.

Next I went to the all host tab. There I found that only the first host in my DEMO group got the KB location.

Next I created a new group DEMO2 and added the next 2 hosts KB-AS1-03 and KB-AS1-04. Went again to the general tab of the group and chose KB again. I pressed update button.

In the all host tab none of the 2 hosts of DEMO2 were added to the KB location.

If it helps I can show you the problem with TeamViewer.

@Tom-Elliott

On the group tab my 2 groups were visible. I selected one of the 2 and pressed update.
After less than a second fog gives the message that the update is done and the location jumps back on the default value.
When I went to the hosts of the location was still empty.

I now removed the location plugin using the web interface and tried to add it again but now I’m getting an empty page when I click the icon of location.

@Tom-Elliott

I tried again in Chrome with refreshed version but same result.
Than I used IE for the first time on that server. same result

@Tom-Elliott
I Just ran the command again. But no difference.

Updated to SVN 3495, same result…

When I’m trying to use the command you gave i’m getting:

administrator@KB-FOG:~$ sudo cp -r svn/trunk/packages/web/lib/plugins /var/www{,/html}/fog/lib/
cp: cannot copy a directory, â/var/www/fog/lib/â, into itself, â/var/www/html/fog/lib/libâ
administrator@KB-FOG:~$

I now see the dropdown menu but when I press “update” the dropdown value isn’t sent to the database.

Tx!

Hi,
Since yesterday I’m using SVN 3471. A big improvement with 1.2.0. Good Job!!

I noticed that there is no location dropdown in the group section. So I now have to add every host individual to a site.

FOG 1.2.0:

Fog SVN 3471:

Kind regards,

Hi All,

I’m using the auto_driver_install script of Andrew Single and that works very well for us.(https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Auto_driver_Install).
I now would like to add some new software using some fog values.

First I would like to know how I can detect with the PostDownloadScript if the computer I’m Imaging is a notebook or desktop. In the inventory list this is the value is called “System Type”.
I would like to use this value to add the silent install of our vpn software and the DisplayLink USB3 drivers to the setupcomplete.cmd if its a notebook.

Next I would like to read the values “Other Tag #1”, “Other Tag #2”.
I would like to add a tag of a software name (example Adobe) so I can again add the auto installation to the SetupComplete.cmd.

Can someone advice me how I can do this?

Tx!
Johan

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 35753, member: 7271”]Where are you trying to download FOG From?[/quote]

Hi Tom,

I’m now able to download the file. There was a problem with the network of Sourceforge.

Greetings and thanks for this fantastic program!
Johan

Hi,

The download of 1.2.0 is not working for the moment.
Is there an other site to download fog from?

Tx!
Johan

Hi Tom,

The imaging works now tx! but…The E7240 uses a SSD of 256 GB and it looks like I’m not able to image that using FOG 0.32…

Hi Tx,

Do i need to place this file in: /tftpboot/fog/kernel ?

Tx
Johan

Hi,

When I’m trying to image my brand new Latitude E7240 I’m having troubles with the NIC.
Fog boots up well and the imaging process starts.

But my NIC eth0 keeps hanging and restarting… (see screenshot)
e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Detected Hardware Unit Hang:
…
e1000e 0000:00:19.0 eth0: Reset adaptor.

I’m running the latest Fog Kernel.
I see that there is a new version op the e1000e driver:
[url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/e1000e stable/[/url]

Is it possible to integrate that driver into the existing kernel? Will this solve my problem?

Tx!

Hi,

I have here 25 ASUS M5A78LT-M/USB3 computers.
Last year I deployed them with Windows XP. But this year we are migrating to Windows 7 Enterprise 64 bit.

The fog upload/download process works great but after the sysprep the computer won’t boot up again and keep rebooting.

By default I keep my drivers info in the image with the following commands in my unattend.xml file:
<settings pass=“generalize”>
<component name=“Microsoft-Windows-PnpSysprep” processorArchitecture=“amd64” publicKeyToken=“31bf3856ad364e35” language=“neutral” versionScope=“nonSxS” xmlns:wcm=“[url]http://schemas.microsoft.com/WMIConfig/2002/State[/url]” xmlns:xsi=“[url]http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance[/url]”>
<DoNotCleanUpNonPresentDevices>true</DoNotCleanUpNonPresentDevices>
<PersistAllDeviceInstalls>true</PersistAllDeviceInstalls>
</component>
</settings>

Next I tried the default sysprep of Windows 7. But again the same problem…

The problem is that i’m not getting any blue screens so I’m not shure where to look…
The Safe mode doesn’t work so no luck there as well :s

Any Ideas??

I read something about the AHCI drivers, can they create this problem?

Tx!!!

Johan

Hi,
I have a small question regarding some strange gray fog I’m seeing at the moment I would expect a blue imaging screen. Attached you can find a photo.
Does anyone know how I can fix this?
I had this Issue with some Asus graphical cards. When I pulled them out of the system it worked. But in this case I have 33 computer with this configuration.
Is there any other solution?
Tx,
Johan

Hi,

I just received a brand new Optiplex 3010 (Manufactured on 15/12/2012 with Bios A5 (bios date 18/09/2012)) of an other department and it looks like it works fine for me. I’m getting the “unsupported bios, please report” message but the imaging works.

After a successful upload and download of the default dell image (Windows 7 Pro 64 bit) I did a hardware inventory.
This works fine as well.

I’m using a testing setup: live cd of pfsense 1.2 and newly installed fog 0.32 on ubuntu 12.04 (enabled the DHCP option) without changing the network card booting settings in Linux.

So if it depends on me the Optiplex 3010 can be added to the list of working devices.

Greetings,
Johan

Hey,
Tx for the reply. I have 18 Optiplex 390 as well and that works fine for me after making the changes.
I had contact with my Dell account manager and at the end of Januari (I’m waiting until the construction of our new school building is finished) I will ask for a test system so then I will be able to confirm if it works.

Greetings,
Johan

Hi,

Is it possible to change the number of hosts that are pinged together when you list all your hosts?
Now fog pings 4 hosts together so when i want to see what is up i have to wait more than 1.5 minute (+150 clients)

tx,
Johan
