FOG Project

@Sebastian-Roth, yes I change my server. I installed in another distro (Fedora 30) and set IP 172.24.3.71, because I’m tired to deal with Ubuntu is FOG Enemy.

***Redbob

@sebastian-roth I successfully installed 1.5.9 in Ubuntu 18.04! It installed php7.2 on it. Thanks!.. It’s interesting to update installation wiki, because there is written 16.04 as high Ubuntu release that support FOG.

***Redbob

@sebastian-roth I’m not interested in keep Ubuntu 16.04 in these machines. I’ll try in 18.04, for example, but I tried installing a fresh in Ubuntu 22.04, and the error was exactly the same!! But I think this release is too new for this test, ok? I’ll be back with the results about upgrading my server to 18.04

***Redbob

Hi!

I tried update FOG from 1.5.7 to 1.5.9 in my servers. We have 7 fog servers spreading across our State, two running Fedora and others running Ubuntu 16.04. The last two servers (16.04) I couldn’t update because the installer cannot install php7.1 at all.
The error is this:

dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-bcmath
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-cli
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-curl
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-fpm
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-gd
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-json
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-ldap
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-mbstring
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php7.1-mysql
dpkg-query: no packages found matching php-gettext
php-gettext

It’s funny, because I connected to Ondrej repository properly. Look:

gpg: keyring `/tmp/tmph5l8tm4m/secring.gpg' created
gpg: keyring `/tmp/tmph5l8tm4m/pubring.gpg' created
gpg: requesting key E5267A6C from hkp server keyserver.ubuntu.com

OK

It doesn’t matter if the server is newer or just an update. I didn’t installed at all. It seems Ondrej has thrown off these packages, because I added Apt key successfully, as you can see in the attached fog_error_1.5.9 and foginstall logfiles here. You can check, the installer installed php7.0, instead. But the installation ended unsuccessfully.

Any ideas? May I wait for Ondrej to fix his repository?

@george1421, it’s funny again. I scheduled a Deploy Task for the device. So it entered in a loop:

Boot UEFI ipv4;
Error after the message “BzImage…” (I post an image with this error)
Restart and Boot UEFI ipv4.

Suddenly, the computer began to deploy the image!!!

It’s sure I have connectivity issues, no?

***Redbob

@george1421 Yes. What I don’t understand is why it could boot on PXE, but goes to error other there? Before this, PXE error occurred at boot time, not after certain operation. It’s like PXE wants to re-register Client at the middle of the operation.

***Redbob

@Sebastian-Roth these are two images:

this image is from a computer I didn’t registered on Server, chosing Deploy Image from FOG PXE Menu

This other image is from the same computer, but here I registered on Server and attached a Deploy Basic Task.

***Redbob

@george1421, PXE boot client is not in the same subnet. Boot Client is at VLAN 12 (172.24.12.0/23) and FOG server is at Default VLAN (172.24.0.0/22). As I told before, I could do a Deploy over Legacy Boot, but errors in UEFI boot remain.

@george1421 here are the answers:

Yes, I raised another server. It’s not 172.24.3.144 anymore. It’s based on Fedora 30;

Yes, I can manage all operations from WEB UI
I could access LEGACY Boot interface and I’m doing a deploy right now . But UEFI messages remain. Strange, because the interface of FOG menu changes color to red on black (The colors I set on server are blue on white).
