I am wanting to deploy XP or Win 7 via Fog, but I would like the machine to pull the drivers from the server

What is the best option and is there any chance you can assist me on this

I can deploy images and join to the server but im kind of stuck with the driver side / updates

thanks

Hi,

I have exactly the same problem. I have just reinstalled my fog on Ubuntu 10.04 and im having nothing but grief. Fails at 0% on a GX620 and on a 380 it fails at 4%.

I have checked all mysql settings and they are correct. I have checked my storage node settings and they are correct.

I thought moving it to Ubuntu 10.04 would work.

HELP ME PLEASE, ANY ONE FIXED IT?? UPLOADING IMAGES WORKS FINE

if you open the img like i tried doing in linux, it uses some kind of extractor, I know you can extract something out of there but I havn’t gone as far as looking into it, it can be extracted with linux though

hope this helps

Hi Chad-bisd,

Yes I am setting the setting under the client and I made sure global wasn’t ticked on, it did not work.

I have also tried global ticked on and service settings set under the client.

The only way it will work is if the global setting is set, but this means all the clients will have the same resolution and this does not fix the problem.

Thanks

Hi,

If I set the screen resolution globally it sets the display fine.

Problem is I want to customize each pc resolution.

I have customized a PC resolution and it does not work, setting it globally like I say does.

HELP

Hi,

Just want to thank you for all your help, it seems to be working fine now.

I did all the things you suggested to do but what I did find is that in Fog service / config.php the mysql server username and password wasnt set. It was set for common / config.php but not the other.

Might not have made a difference but its all working now until it fails again.

Did try another NIC and made no difference, also did all the updates.

Anyway im happy it works

thanks

Lee

Thanks for the quick response. Networking equipment seems fine and nothing has changed since it was working fine.

I have just tried a new patch lead and plugged it into a new socket on the wall.

I need to get a pci network card to test if it could be the onboard card. What is wierd is that it will upload and image fine so why should deploying an image be a problem.

I have checked the services tftpd-hpa is running and it is, it is set to startup. It is version 12.04 but that service seems fine.

I am just doing 347 updates as it has not done any updating since ive installed the new linux os.

I will post when I have tried another NIC and done these updates. I will upload a new image again and test with a deploy.

Thanks

Lee

Ok I have looked at the log after just trying to clone, here are the last few lines that show whats happening

thanks

Lee

I tried that and it still didn’t fix it, very wierd I though

thanks for your reply

I am unicasting to 1 pc to test it so far.

I have put new drives in the fog server.

I have installed Ubuntu again from fresh with version 12.04 and I have installed Fog again from fresh with version 0.32

I have been running fine for a week with this setup and now it has gone back to crashing on cloning.

It sometimes makes 20% sometimes makes 4% then bombs out.

I am checking the log but have noticed that there are 2 logs, one is syslog and one is syslog.1.

Syslog.1 seems to be an older log from yesterday and syslog holds my current log from this morning.

I am going to clean the log and try and clone so I have a fresh log to view.

I really need help with this, I love fog but it doesnt love me

thanks

Lee
