@Sebastian-Roth I rebuilt the USB boot stick again having upgraded to FOG 1.5.5. here’s what I now get when I try to capture an image.

Note, I’ve already verified that ‘sda’ as far as the boot kernel is concerned, is the USB stick.

Hi,

I’ve been quite successful up to now imaging MacBooks using a USB Boot drive as described here
https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/7727/building-usb-booting-fos-image/3. But having recently bought a 2018 Macbook Pro I’m now getting the problem that it doesn’t recognise the built-in HDD at all.

I tried booting to the debug kernel but got a kernel panic. I tried rebuilding my USB boot stick again and now I get Invalid Operating System Version, so I’m going backwards

Can anybody help?

So I set up a new FOG 1.5.4 in a VM, using exactly the same procedure I used to install the live server (1.5.0) and although I still can’t log in to FTP using the fog user on that one, Images do get deleted from the hard drive when I delete them from the Web UI, so I think the FTP thing is not related to the problem. Bug in 1.5.0?

@Quazz I had to change the TFTP password, the others were correct. I have logged in as the fog user, but only since I found this problem. Nothing in the apache error logs at all.

@Sebastian-Roth Yes the password is correct, I can ‘su fog’ from the console using that password. I’m not sure how to debug FTP user issues. The conf file is identical to the one in the wiki. I have a normal user account and I can log in to FTP using that account, but when I try ‘fog’ I get

ftp xxxmyfogserverxxx
Connected to xxxmyfogserverxxx.
220 (vsFTPd 3.0.2)
200 Always in UTF8 mode.
User (xxxmyfogserverxxx:(none)): fog
331 Please specify the password.
Password:
530 Login incorrect.
Login failed.
ftp> Invalid command.
ftp>

Should add I’ve been through the FTP Config Wiki here

https://wiki.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php?title=Troubleshoot_FTP

All of the listed crednetials match (fog user password, settings for storage node and tftp server, /opt/fog/.settings) HOWEVER I cannot log in to the FTP server using that password. Perhaps that’s the problem? How do I set the password on the FTP server?

I’m running a FOG server version 1.5.0 on CentOS7, having followed all the instructions on the FOG Wiki. Most things are working well except for one issue.

When I delete an image or a snapin using the Web UI, the image or snapin is removed from the database and no longer appears in the UI, but the files are left behind on disc. There are no errors in any of the fog logs or the apache log. None at all.

Is it a permission problem?
