Obvious question:
Did you reboot your fog server yet and/or update it to the latest version and kernels?

@Sebastian-Roth Works! Thank you for the fix!
@Sebastian-Roth I attempted to update the dev-branch version and installed 1.5.10.4. Fog is saying the latest version is 1.5.10.5. I deleted the .git file and reran the command to download the fogproject.git once again. When I go to install the dev-branch it only installs version 1.5.10.4. Am I missing a step or is there a better place to locate the current version?
Answered my own question. I followed the instructions on the github page. I have 1.5.10.5 now installed. I will test this and let you know if that did the trick.
@flat4vw This is an old post but is probably still relevant:
TL;DR: you are probably fine.
@rodluz I don’t think this is related. It appears to be an issue revolved around multiple network interfaces in the device. When I disabled WIFI in Bios everything works as expected.
@Sebastian-Roth I have confirmed disabling wifi in BIOS resolved this issue. So it does in fact have to do with multiple interfaces. Disabling wifi allowed me to enter the deploy image screen as normal. Of course, this is not a long term or preferable solution as you would need to go back into bios and turn wifi back on every time you image the device in this manner. At least we were able to confirm the problem.
@admiralshaw My work around which isn’t that awful is to note the last 4 digits of the Mac for the host. Then search that host in the fog server interface and manually assign the image and then start the deploy task there. The next PXE boot should go directly into the deployment. This is assuming your issue is the same as mine.
@LLamaPie There is multiple network interfaces due to the wifi card in the device. To test this theory, I will disable the wifi card in bios or manually remove it temporarily and see if that solves the issue and confirms the suspicion. I probably won’t be able to test this until next week. I’ll let you know what I find.
Fog Version: 1.5.10
Kernel: 6.1.22 ; 6.1.22
Having a weird issue I cannot seem to get by. We just got a new fleet of HP Probook G9s in. They all quick register without issue. However, when going to “Deploy Image” it asked for the Username and Password, as usual. When we type it in, we have to enter 3 times. After which, it does not load into the deploy image screen - instead it loads into the Compatibility screen.
Our only work around at the moment is to search the host in the Fog server and manually start the deploy task. That does work. I was able to test that Fog is working normally on our older (G7) models without issue.
We are getting a warning when loading into fog, however.
WARNING Using legacy NIC wrapper on 00:00:00:00:00:00
That is the only thing showing up that is remotely different from other machines.
Quick update. I did not solve the issue with ubuntu but I have it working on CentOS 7. Should have just done that sooner, much smoother experience.
I would still like to know why I was having issues on the Ubuntu install, however.
Tried a few more things and getting no where. Installed PHP7.1 and confirmed it’s running. Installed php-gettext as well. Attempted to install fog with ‘-x’ and managed to skip by the original issue and get here where it failed again:
So checking that directory, it’s showing this:
Even though I confirmed php7.1 is running it’s not in the directory that fog is trying to find?
EDIT:
Checked again to see the status of php7.1 and I got this:
It was running prior to attempting to install fog and now it’s gone, even though I told fog ‘n’ to deleting those packages.
Here is the original output after I installed php7.1:
Try updating the kernel in the server config?
@lobomarinho In Fog config, update to the latest Kernel.
I had a similar issue with some Dell Precision desktops. Updating to the latest Kernel fixed it.
Been working on this all day. We had a working Fog server that failed recently and the genius that set it up before had no backups made. Therefore, I have been tasked with rebuilding it.
I am using Ubuntu 22.04.1. As a side note: I have also tried 16.04 and 20.04 with no luck.
I go through the entire process of installing and no matter what I do I come across the following issues:
I am very new to Linux, so bare with me and I appreciate your patience. I have manually installed the PHP7.1 package and php-gettext and when fog prompts it may need to remove packages at the start I’ve even said no with no change. I am at a loss as to what to do and any and all help is appreciated. Even if it’s a suggestion to use something other than Ubuntu. (Any GUI based Linux distro is preferred).
