I’ve managed with the groups assistance to successfully install FOG on a Raspberry Pi 4, which is great. It is set up as a storage node, and I have replicated images from the master node which is a PC-based version of Ubuntu 18.04.4 LTS, to the Raspberry Pi, which is Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS.
A PC selected to have its image downloaded from the Raspberry Pi PXE boots and begins the process, until partclone is run up. The attached error appears

“read image_hdr device_size error”

and the image will not download. This error appears for each partition that is to be imaged. If I upload an image from a PC it will download successfully, but not if it has been replicated from a PC based imageserver to the Pi used as an imageserver.
Any ideas please?

@Sebastian-Roth that worked. Thanks very much.

@Sebastian-Roth I made the changes and re-ran the install. Same result unfortunately.

I have attached the error log and install log[1_1582602880272_fog_error_1.5.7.log](Uploading 100%) [0_1582602880271_foginstall.log](Uploading 100%)

@Sebastian-Roth…and will upload the result from the grep also…

@Sebastian-Roth thank you for such a quick answer! It’s 8:44pm where I am in Australia so I’ll make the change tomorrow and see how we go.

I’m building a FOG Imageserver on a Raspberry P i4.
Install fails at “Configuring UDPCast”
Upon investigation of the error log file, it appears that GNU cannot guess the the build type.
Whats the best way to approach this…the error log reports that the config.guess file is from 07/02/2006.

@Tom-Elliott I think this latest patch fixed the issue. The smaller file sizes match and the local size of the largest file is now accurate, so I anticipate when fully replicated the large files will also match. I’ll let you know. Thanks Tom.

@Wayne-Workman I believe Tom’s latest patch has fixed the issue. I wont know for certain until the largest file has replicated which will take a couple of days, but the others match now and the largest file local size is accurate, so I’m quietly confident.

@Tom-Elliott Have tried the patch. The numbers add up now, but it is still saying “Files do not match” and writing over them repeatedly. I tried to upload an image of the log but don’t have privileges to upload on this thread.

@Wayne-Workman Sorry I should have put it directly in here. Unfortunately a fix didn’t make it into RC-7. Roll on RC-8!

Hi Tom/Wayne,
Just installed RC-6. The image replication calculation is still slightly out for local file sizes. Local file sizes are all showing up as 8 bytes smaller than the remote file sizes, so will loop on all files now. See attached log screenshot.

@Wayne-Workman Thanks, yes I may move to 64 bit. However it’s good that my issue has highlighted the inconsistency in the code which sounds like it only shows up in 32 bit OS’s. I’m guessing there mustn’t be too many others with my setup out there, otherwise this would have been reported a while ago. Glad its a relatively easy fix, I’ve rebuilt these boxes a few times recently and didn’t wish to have to do it again. Regards, Mark

@Tom-Elliott I’m so pleased you found the issue so quickly! I’ve had to turn off replication for the last number of releases and upload them when at the sites. Didn’t want to post about it until I had done some investigation and had evidence of the exact issue.

@Tom-Elliott Thanks Tom. I’ll wait a few days for RC-6. Regards, Mark

@Wayne-Workman It worked in the past. I have always used 32 bit filesystems, and the remote server is also 32 bit.

@Tom-Elliott Yes all are FOG 1.3.0 RC4 SVN 5941. All have Ubuntu 14.04 installed. Interesting that the local file size is always incorrect for the large files. This has been happening for a while, I’ve only just realised why.

@Wayne-Workman I will try that, but this issue has been happening for a few releases. I’ve not noticed anyone else reporting the problem so not sure if it has been addressed.

@Tom-Elliott Yes 32 bit. However it reads the remote image size accurately which is also 32 bit.
