    • Pending MAC addresses

      Hi all,
      If I recall correctly in FOG 0.32 when you registered a laptop via wired ethernet, it would pick up the wireless MAC address - then you would just open that host and it would have that MAC address waiting. Then you would just click the + sign next to it and it would be associated with that host…

      In FOG 1.2 I see that you can still hit the + sign and manually add your wireless MAC, but why doesn’t it discover it automatically anymore?

      Opening each host and just clicking + on the pending MAC address wasn’t too bad, but manually typing in all of the wireless MAC addresses will take a long time…

      If anyone has any advice or information on this it would be greatly appreciated. Is there a way to restore this functionality? Or better yet, automatically associate the pending MAC addresses so you don’t even have to open each host?

      Thank you for and advice or help,
      D.L.

    • FOG Service issue in Audit Mode

      Hi again,
      I’ve been transitioning to using Audit Mode in Windows 7, instead of other hacked ways of copying the “default profile” and I’ve come across an issue with the FOG Service. It works great in regular Windows 7 installations, but in Audit Mode the FOG Service fails and spits out a bunch of errors, the log is below. I consider the Hostname Changer and Host Register to be very necessary, and those don’t seem to work in Audit Mode…

      I must be missing something here, because it works fine in regular Windows 7 user mode…

      I have checked the credentials, etc.

      Thanks!

    • FOG Client link broken?

      Hi all,
      In FOG 1.1.2 when I go to [url]http://fogserver/fog/client[/url] it just gives me a blank splash page with the FOG logo - no download links for the FOG client, FOG prep, etc.

      It was working in FOG 1.1.1…

      I’m not sure if it’s my installation or my environment, but I just wanted to mention this. I’ve tried it in IE, Chrome, Firefox all with the same results. If there is something that I can do to test or fix this, let me know.

      Thanks to the FOG development team for all of their work,
      D.L.

    • Migrated images won't deploy

      Hi all,
      I have seen other threads related to this issue, but those are not this exact situation… so I hope that it is okay to start a new one.

      When re-building FOG boxes, migrated images will not deploy. I’ve re-built a FOG box from Ubuntu -> XUbuntu and copied the images over manually, but when you try to deploy it says:

      Failed to create deployment tasks for the following Hosts
      To setup download task, you must first upload an image

      This must be because this image has never been uploaded to this installation of FOG, but rather manually copied over to the /images directory from an old FOG installation, but I’m wondering if someone has a workaround for this…

      Not being able to manually migrate images between FOG installations (without re-uploading) seems like a big issue…

      In theory, shouldn’t FOG just check that the image and path exist, and start the task? Why would it require that the image be re-uploaded? It must be checking “Last Uploaded” under the image definition and seeing that it is 0000-00-00 00:00:00 and thinking that the image does not exist…

      I’ve checked image name/path/filename, etc. all are correct.

    • Multicast does not work when using SQL database password

      Hi all,
      I’m not sure if this warrants a new thread but in FOG 1.1.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 multicast works perfectly with a blank SQL database password, but the task won’t start when there IS a SQL database password. I have entered the password upon installation, verified it, etc…

      It is just strange the number of issues that having a SQL database password creates, you would think that it would be possible to actually have one…

      Thanks for any input, and thanks to the developers,

    • Where is Server Shell now?

      Hello all,
      I cannot seem to find “Server Shell”, the Java-based SSH client, inside the FOG web UI anymore.

      I thought that it used to be under “FOG Configuration”…

      I’ve searched my FOG Web UI, and the Wiki, and I cannot seem to find it…

      I must be missing something,
      Thanks for any replies or help,

    • MySQL problem continues

      Ubuntu 14.04 x64 FOG 1.1.0

      Using the above software versions, MySQL continues to be a problem and just fails randomly. This command doesn’t help, but it does show the problem:

      sudo /etc/init.d/mysql restart

      • Stopping MySQL database server mysqld [ OK ]
      • Starting MySQL database server mysqld [fail]

      When this happens the web browser interface re-directs back to the Schema Updater:
      [url]http://1.1.1.1/fog/[/url] ------> re-directs to -------->
      [url]http://1.1.1.1/fog/commons/schemaupdater/index.php?redir=1[/url]

      In FOG version 1.1.0, when you click “Install/Upgrade Now” it says “Update/Install Failed!” and “The following errors occurred”, followed by a huge text output of error messages.

      My question is: Would it be useful to post this error log to the FOG forums, or is this just something that is a broken MySQL problem?

      Thanks,

    • FOG Service - Register no longer working?

      Hi,
      I’ve searched around and found some information, but is the Host Register function no longer working in FOG 1.0.1?

      In my environment it has completely failed, stating ‘Unknown Error’ Code: 1355 or something similar (will post if I can replicate the other error code). Not only does it not work at all, but the “Auto Populate” of AD settings to the host from the “FOG Settings” menu isn’t working at all either.

      At first I thought, “Okay the settings are not auto populating, that’s not the end of the world, I can just input them into groups as necessary”, but nope, that doesn’t actually make it work, make the hosts register - the AD integration system is broken, I guess…

      I guess the place to start would be to actually get it working again, then worry about the auto populating…

      Thanks for any advice or help,
      D.L.

    • IPXE PHP boot files not found

      Hi all,
      Thanks to the developers for all of your work, the new edition of FOG is great. I did search for this issue and I did not see it mentioned, but perhaps I didn’t search hard enough…
      When building a new box I tried installing FOG 1.0.1 from scratch and on iPXE boot it has a message that boot.php or other iPXE files cannot be found:
      [url]http://1.1.1.1/fog/service/ipxe/boot.php[/url]… file not found
      It seems okay if you install FOG 1.0.0 and upgrade to 1.0.1 (still testing) but in my environment a direct install of 1.0.1 on a fresh installation is causing this issue.
      I’ve attached a screenshot,
      Thanks,
      D.L.

    • MAC address as host name - auto populate, etc.

      Hello,
      I have a small issue where I was playing around with the FOG quick registration settings, and now something is wrong and/or I cannot get it back to its default behavior where it uses the MAC address (with no colons) as the hostname.

      Before today, I have never really used the FOG_QUICKREG_AUTOPOP but I have great reason to do so now, so any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

      On a fresh FOG server install I had these settings:
      FOG_QUICKREG_AUTOPOP 1
      FOG_QUICKREG_IMG_ID 1
      FOG_QUICKREG_OS_ID 1
      FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NAME *
      FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER 1

      With these settings, I thought that it would auto-populate and auto-name with the machine’s MAC address as its hostname and the FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER would advance, but I cannot get that to happen again. I know that the key is in the FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NAME, but how do I make that the MAC address again?

      Now, the system names the machine 1, 2, 3, 4, according to the FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER, or it actually names it *.

      I have tried 0 (off), 1 (on) and * and all possible combinations in both FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NAME and FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER and I just cannot get it to use the MAC address as the name anymore (without colons) like it did upon a fresh install (default behavior). I guess that I do not have to touch FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER, which is now up to the “next number in the sequence” - since I have only 9 total machines registered in this database, FOG_QUICKREG_SYS_NUMBER is now 10, and advancing correctly.

      Any help with this would be greatly appreciated, because I really wanted to use the MAC address as the hostname (minus the colons) - I should have left it alone but I would rather not re-install, if possible.

      Thank you for any help,
      D.L.
