Okay it turns out it’s not the server nor my configuration.

but the laptops I used as clients.
They are old Fujitsu esprimo’s they might not be fully supported for image deployment.
How ever I did manage to upload 1 image.

And I deployed the image on a Acer Aspire 5610 which worked fine, even though the bios isn’t supported by fog.
It can obtain a deployed image but it does get errors when trying to upload one.

For some strange unknown reason I managed to upload a image.
But deploying it seems to give the same visual appearance and it seems to get stuck at some point.
But I can’t really tell for I can’t see anything.

Here’s a picture of what I am currently seeing while uploading and deploying an image.

Hello everyone,

I finally managed to get fog up and running propperly.

Well that is what I thought.

Using Kubuntu 12.04.4lts a Windows dhcp&dns server with scope options 66 and 67 enabled.
All clients receive a ip addres and are capable of pining the fog server and the windows dhcp/dns server.
PXE boot works fine as wel, I manage to get in to FOG’s pxe boot menu.

But after creating a image upload task for a windows xp professional client everything goes wrong.
The upload succefully starts but when reaching 22% twice the client reboots and the task disappears…
So I am asuming it failed, as it only managed toupload 22%.

Also when starting the task the screen visuals change from normal to flashing white symbols.
Can’t make anything out of it.

Anyone experienced this before ? and know what the causes of these problems are ?

COuld it be, because of I didn’t create storage node on a different machine ?

Well I’m not using any DHCP or DNS services.

All static.
And the server’s IP is defined in all records.
It does navigate to my server “192.168.56.101 255.255.255.0” from my client “192.168.56.102 255.255.255.0”

with following error I mentioned in my 2nd post.

And yes the tftpd-hpa service has been a problem for many people but even after stopping and starting the services or using a restart script, nothing changes.

Does FOG need a DHCP & a DNS ?

I’m using fog version 0.32

On a virtualbox machine running ubuntu 12.04 LTS as Os.

No I haven’t done that before, but when doing so it comes with a error telling me Nothing to boot no such file or directory.

Hello all,

It’s my first time using fog.
Heard many things about it and I am now trying it out in a virtualbox enviorment.
To see and experience its wonders.

Everything seemed to go right…
Installation>configuration etc.

But now when I added the virtual client to the host list and perform a upload image task and force it to start.
It status stays queued without any progression or any files in the /images/dev folder.

I googled a bit, followed many steps but I just can’t seem to figure it out.
There’s no dhcp and no Dns.

static IP and noted mac addresses.

Some said, the image proces is running but due the lack of a DNS there isn’t any viewable proces.

Others told me it had to do with the folder permissions on the /image/dev folders.
Which is chmoded according to the found steppes.

Everything seems to be right…

But I’m just stuck now…

Do I really have to setup a Dns ? or domein…
Or am I missing a conf ?

Please help!
