@keith75140 Unfinished images are in /images/dev/... (folder names are client MAC addresses without colons).

[mod note] Marking as solve. I setup a teamviewer session with the OP and helped him fix this and a few other issues. At this point the OP is imaging as designed now.

In the end it wasn’t what FOG was doing, but the OP ran out of disk space on the root partition, and that caused mysql to not start. Flushing some failed uploads provided enough disks space to restart mysql and fog.

@tom-elliott said in Do you have to image over the network to use fog?:

Technically yes. But fog is not designed for this.

Said the senior developer who knows ‘it’s possible’.

@keith75140 I say don’t even try because that’d be sort of like trying to build a house using an F-16 jet fighter instead of a general contractor…

If you want to image without networking, Clonezilla is the right tool for that.

@keith75140 You might want to read through this article: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10006/ubuntu-is-fog-s-enemy

@george1421 It’s ubuntu, so ps aux | grep apache2 but yeah he probably got slammed by Canonical’s nasty automatic MySQL update.

Worked with @keith75140 and we seem to have gotten things fully operational.

While it is true the OP used the fog user as an admin user, we were able to get things working properly. PXE Booting is now working as well after working with the network team to get things setup.

We had a couple of issues but we were able to work around them.

Thanks for the help again!
