@Wayne-Workman It seems like this is not necessary on Pro versions of Windows, but it is on Home Premium! At least that’s how my test situations have turned out so far. In Home Premium it seems to copy over literally everything and in Pro it is more clever about it.

@sgennadi Guessing the root cause is similar, they recently added a login prompt for managing hosts, which I guess isn’t working for you.

@Tom-Elliott Could this be caused by certain security settings perhaps?

@Wayne-Workman Not sure what the copy profile thing actually transfers, but if ntuser.dat is part of it then that’s where the user’s registry keys are in.

You can test it by loading it in regedit and searching for the account it was transfered from.

I figure windows would alter that regardless upon account creation, though, so you may be right that it’s unnecessary.

@Yamakazi I’m guessing you’re on FOG 1.2 then? Not on trunk? Might be worth upgrading and see if that helps.

@Yamakazi Under Multicast settings - FOG_MULTICAST_ADDRESS default value is 0

@Yamakazi You can specify the multicast address, but not the broadcast address I think. This seems like a routing issue, not a FOG problem, but I don’t really know enough about networking to say for sure.

@Yamakazi Also, your syntax is indeed wrong.

You need to do

use fog;

first. Then try and run those other commands after that.

@Arrowhead-IT @Wayne-Workman

I found some more interesting information on this subject: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/VCL/How+to+Configure+the+Windows+Default+User+Profile

They recommend deleting the shell items of the ntuser.dat if you copy it from a different profile.

@Yamakazi That wiki is outdated due to relatively recent changes I believe

@robza Start /wait , not cmd /wait?

@Rich-C Assuming you have a good copy of your images and your database you can basically reinstall your OS, install FOG, put the images back, then restore the database and everything is the way it should be.

@Yamakazi Just a guess, but try manually typing those commands, since I’m guessing mysql only accepts either ` or ’ and not both.

Could also simply do

TRUNCATE TABLE multicastSessions;
TRUNCATE TABLE multicastSessionsAssoc;
DELETE FROM tasks WHERE taskTypeID=8;

if you don’t care about any current multicast tasks.

@Lestat86 After you click on that, can you go to the Apache error logs and post the lines of when you clicked on Advanced?

@Tom-Elliott Also, adding the backslash to the targetpath is sometimes necessary, I seem to recall copy commands asking if it’s a file or directory when that’s not specified, lol.

@Tom-Elliott I’ve never had issues copying files straight from UNC paths though, although I use copy /y instead of xcopy most of the time so results may vary.

Does the script work manually?

Might want to try start /wait instead of cmd /c

@x23piracy There is no space between your item return and the <— which there should be!

It’s currently item return<—

It should be item return <—

I should have caught that way earlier, lol.

@Abuelika Going to have to wait on the devs in that case, beyond the scope of what I know I’m afraid.
