Hello,
I’ve made a French translation (better than google translate ) for fog 1.4.0:
messages.po
It’s editable with poedit.

Organizations Using FOG:
I got two organizations:

Organization Name: Lycée Eugène Livet
Location: Nantes, France
Approximate Number of systems: 1200
How long: 3 years

Organization Name: E.R.E.A. La Rivière
Location: Nantes, France
Approximate Number of systems: 100
How long: 2 years

I had a problem updating the database. At the moment we are asked to go on the web interface to update the database I had a php error date.timezone and suddenly the database was corrupted. To fix this problem, before going to the web interface I opened /etc/php/7.1/apache2/php.ini and filled in the date.timezone line correctly, then restarted the service apache2.

I also wanted to tell you that you are doing a great job, a big thank you!

There is a problem, I have no more logs, look at the dates, it seems that since the 1.2 to 1.3 update FOG write nothing.

And I have a issue with all FOG services:

@TrinityAcademy
Hello,
You can install specifics drivers during sysprep.
In the regitry at “HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\BIOS\SystemProductName” you have the machine model or at “HKLM\HARDWARE\DESCRIPTION\System\BIOS\BaseBoardProduct” you got motherboard model. If you place your drivers at “C:\Windows\Drivers\MyModel1”, “C:\Windows\Drivers\MyModel2”… you can edit “HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\DevicePath” to add the path driver of your model.

To do so I’ve developed a vbs script , you can edit it with Notepad++ to adapt it to your system.

Here is the steps:
1-place your script to “C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts\EditDriverPack.vbs”
2-execute your xml sysprep (ex: sysprep /generalize /oobe /quit /unattend:unattend.xml)
3-enter this in a cmd line:

reg add HKLM\System\Setup /v CmdLine /t REG_SZ /d "cmd /c cscript //nologo C:\Windows\Setup\Scripts\EditDriverPack.vbs" /f

Reboot your computer to upload it to fog.

There is also a debug mode in this script, it allow you to use cmd line in sysprep just before drivers installation.

Thank you, it work fine! Here my po file, it is perfectible but better french than google trad

Hello @Sebastian-Roth,
Thanks to take time for me, in apache2 error logs I have this but I don’t know if it’s linked:

This error is after I create the delayed task.

I’v tried delayed tasks (deploy and wake up) in the same day they are create and they work, I have create others for tomorrow.
“What exactly is happening when you try”: The delayed tasks stay in “Scheduled Tasks” with a “yes” in “active” column.
“Do you see an empty page or an error or what”: No error, no empty page. Just the task don’t start.

I will tell you more tomorrow with the result of delayed tasks that I have create today.

@Sebastian-Roth
I have found the error by myself, it was a misconfiguration of the variable no_proxy. I have change it and restart fog, it’s ok now:
export no_proxy=127.0.0.1,IP.OF.SRV.FOG,[…]
Thank you for your help!

Hello,
I have a error while updating fog from 1.5.8 to 1.5.9 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS:

Setting up and starting MySQL......................
/lib/common/functions.sh line 1095: systemctl command not found
/lib/common/functions.sh line 1096: systemctl command not found

I have opened the script and lines 1095 and 1096 are:

dbservice=$(systemctl list-units | grep -o -e "mariadb\.service" -e "mysqld\.service" -e "mysql\.service" | tr -d '@')
[[ -z $dbservice ]] && dbservice=$(systemctl list-unit-files | grep -v bad | grep -o -e "mariadb\.service" -e "mysqld\.service" -e "mysql\.service" | tr -d '@')

I have roleback to a snapshot in case, is it a serious bug or just a warning?
Thank you

@Sebastian-Roth Thank you so much! You save my life (almoste ) It was about ipxe.efi, I have change to realtek.efi in DHCP and now it work fine. Nice work thank you ^_^

@Sebastian-Roth Do you have an idea of the problem? We have iPXE 1.20.1+ (g18dc) on screen when iPXE initialize device correctly.

@Sebastian-Roth I have my own DHCP on Windows server 2012R2

@Sebastian-Roth
Thank you for your answer, I use UEFI mode and what do you mean by iPXE binary? Where can I find that?

Fog 1.5.8

OS: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS
apache: 2.4.37
php: 7.1.25
mysql: 14.14
FOG: 1.5.8
Hello,
Since the update the scheduled tasks don’t work anymore, is there a way that I can fix it?
Thank you,
Nicolas

@Fernando-Gietz
No, I use many more on fog.
We have old computers who need time to be ready, so some teachers asked me if they could have access to WOL. With our ACL only fog server can WOL PC, that’s why I’m looking for a solution.
