Never mind: I just trashed everything and started from scratch, and it’s working now.

After the second FOG server reboot, the GUI does not ask for a schema update, but the TFTP timeout is still occurring.

So, after the FOG server reboot, I have also noticed that the FOG server is generating a schema update screen. When I try the schema update, it generates errors. So, I checked in /opt/fog/.fogsettings, and my username and host information was all erased. I reinserted “localhost” and “root”, and maybe that will help after another reboot.

After a reboot, I tried on a different known working machine (as of this morning (before the update)) and the TFTP request during PXE boot times out.

My FOG server is Ubuntu 14.04 LTS,

I’ll try a reboot.

I did have some chainloading going on with my old version of FOG; could that have been undone? I noticed a new directory on the root called TFTPBOOT.previous, alongside a TFTPBOOT directory, which I’m assuming is the new one. I tried renaming the new TFTPBOOT to TFTPBOOT.NEW and the TFTPBOOT.previous to TFTPBOOT, but that didn’t seem to help.

This is weird.

I just updated to 1.2 (I was on vacation when the new release came out), and my TFTP is now failing during the PXE boot.

I tried to contact my FOG server via the TFTP client in Windows (CLI), but the connection fails.

I am using the same FOG server and client machine that, earlier today, were playing nicely together; now, post updating, TFTP fails.

YYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYY!!!

IT WORKED! IT WORKED!

:D:D:D

I chainloaded PXE to iPXE using pxelinux.0, and now a client machine that is PXE booted resolves to the FOG menu!!

I am very happy!!

Now, what next???

Back to the WIKI/User Guide!

I will try this:

Well, still no joy:(

I get to a screen during the process that says:

iPXE 1.0.0+ (1639) – Open Source Network Boot Firmware – [url]http://ipxe.org[/url]
Features: NFS FTP HTTP HTTPS iSCSI DNS TFTP VLAN AoE bzImage ELF MBOOT PXE PXEXT
Menu
Configuring (net0 a0:1d:48:a9:e6:62)… ok
Could not start download: Operation not supported ([url]http://ipxe.org/3c092003[/url])

The reference page at ipxe.org doesn’t make much sense to me, except that it suggests I am trying to use a protocol that is not supported by the ipxe build.

What have I done wrong?!
