@Sebastian-Roth I did it and it’s work ! thanks a lot for your reply ans the time you spent for me

@Sebastian-Roth I’m sorry i was in holidays, i just reinstall debian and retry to install fog with the installer and like the first time the package tftpd-hpa installation failed (but this time unzip, vsftpd, wget and xinetd failed too)

when i open jouralctl -xe i have these lines

Jun 11 06:52:36 fogif in.tftpd[24233]: cannot open IPv6 socket, disable IPv6: Address family not supported by protocol

So, i don’t think it’s a problem about the version of fog or the OS

The first time i reached to install tftpd-hpa by going in /etc/default/tftpd-hpa and give the -4 argument (to forcing IPV4 yes ?)

# /etc/default/tftpd-hpa

TFTP_USERNAME="tftp"
TFTP_DIRECTORY="/srv/tftp"
TFTP_ADDRESS="0.0.0.0:69"
TFTP_OPTIONS="--secure -4"

Is it a correct solution ? Currently i didn’t did it.

Thanks a lot !

Thanks a lot for your reply, i will do a clean install of debian and fog then i tell you if it’s resolved or not

@Sebastian-Roth said in TFTP won't start at the installation:

Setting up and starting TFTP and PXE Servers…Failed!

I mean “Setting up and starting TFTP and PXE Servers…Failed!” and the option -4 who is deleted by the script

Thanks for your quick reply, i’m sorry i didn’t saw your post before…
I tried to install the lastest version but i have the same problem, it’s possible to be a DHCP problem ?

Hello here,

I have to create a fog server but i have a problem during the installation.

I followed this tuto (in French) but i had an issue with TFTPD-hpa, i couldn’t install it because cannot open IPv6 socket, disable IPv6: Address family not supported by protocol after some search i edited the tftpd-hpa default file (/etc/default/tftpd-hpa) and give it an option “-4” who force tftpd to use IPV4 and it worked ! My tftpd-hpa server was installed.

But after the build of the database (during the installation) the install script couldn’t start the TFPT server
* Setting up and starting TFTP and PXE Servers................Failed!

And when i look at journalctl -xe i have the same error than the installation, an IPV6 error.
When i look at the tftpd-hpa default file, my option -4 has disappeared because the script deleted it.

I tried to modify the script but i’m a newbi and the only thing i found was the option “-t” (not-buildtftt) but when i write ./installfog.sh -t nothing change and the installation fail…

I would like to know how to disable this “reset” of the tftpd-hpa default file.

Thanks a lot for your answer !
(And sorry for my english ^^')

Ps : The OS is Debian 9.9 and my version of fog is 1.4.4
