@anwoke8204 Tom is right. I had that same issue when trying to use snapins the first time.
You would need to do something like this:

$username = "DOMAIN\USERNAME""
$password = ConvertTo-SecureString "PASSWORD!" -AsPlainText -Force
$creds = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PSCredential $username, $password

New-PSDrive -Persist -Name "Z" -PSProvider FileSystem -Root "\\SHARE\PATH" -Credential $creds

#
# RUN YOUR CODE REFERENCING THE "Z" DRIVE
#

Remove-PSDrive -Name "Z"

@louisjjames Hello, I am able to capture/deploy Windows 11 images just fine. When you create an image, there is no Windows 11 selection but just use Windows 10 and it will work.

@dvorak Just as @george1421 said, e2fsck needs to be updated on the FOG Operating System (FOS), specifically the inits. The FOS inits haven’t been updated in a bit over a year but I can build new ones for you so you could test it out, just let me know.

@Bristow-0 A while back, I was trying to find an answer to your question, but I couldn’t find anything, so I just wrote it myself. It’s not perfect, but this could be a good starting point.

I have it set up on a Proxmox LXC container running Ubuntu 22.04 and it’s running on a cron job weekly. If you want to go this route, you just have to set up a few things on the container first.

• Make sure you can send emails from the container. I use msmtp, but you can use something else that you prefer, just make sure to change the command in the script.
• Make sure you can SSH into your FOG server from the container with an SSH key so that you don’t have to deal with username/password.
• Not extremely necessary but recommended. Add a mount point, to the container, of a separate storage location to save all the data to.
  • In the script, I have it set to /mnt/FOGBackups

Make sure that you read through the script and change the FOG information.

For some reason the forum doesn’t show the bash script correctly, so I am adding a link to a public gist with the code: https://gist.github.com/rluzuriaga/a2cd00cbff9a5cc70d0fb93afdd15566

Hope this helps!

@Warsonix I really needed to get those laptops imaged asap, so I just used a USB-C to Ethernet adapter on those and it worked. I haven’t touched those laptops since then.
Funnily enough, I have to re-image them next week, so I’ll let you know what happens.
I have done a lot of changes to my FOG server since then, so it’s really going to depend on your setup too.

@danieln Hi. The Node Disk saying “Unauthorized” is a known bug, you can safely ignore it for now.
Take a look at this thread: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/16731/unauthorized-storage-node

As for there being nothing when updating the Database Schema, I think that is normal because there were no changes to the schema from your old FOG version to the new one.

Hi all, I had an issue very similar to this but only when I select Debug in the iPXE menu.
I “fixed” it by creating a new iPXE menu entry with the same info as fog.debug just called it fog.debug_new and made the old fog.debug to not show on the list. I’m not sure how or why this worked.
@LLamaPie Maybe you can try this and let us know if it works.

@Sebastian-Roth I just tested this change on my server and it is now working! Thank you

@kalafina Hi, DISM’s error code 87 is often because of an incorrectly formatted command.
The issues could be because you are trying to run this command with a relative path of the xml file instead of the absolute path.

You can try changing the Snapin Run With Argument to “/c dism.exe /online /import-defaultappassociations:C:\Program Files(x86)\FOG\tmp\”
I’m not sure how the command will react to the space in the file path.

---

This is what I do for my default app associations snapins. I create a snapin pack with the xml file and a batch file that moves the xml file to the C drive then runs the dism command with the absolute path (dism.exe /online /import-defaultappassociations:c:\appassoc.xml)

Hope this helps!

@DARUN974 I’m not sure what you are referring to by “reconfigure”.

How did you update the kernel?
I would recommend you update the kernel using this guide.

@DARUN974 Hi, I may be understanding this wrong but the output of the commands that you posted are from the FOG server or the host computer in debug mode?

If the output is on the host computer, then the Linux kernel is old (4.19.145) and you should update it to the newest one available (5.15.68).

@ericl Hi, are you able to give us a picture of the screen at the moment you get the error message?
There may be some more context in that image.

@yannickF I may be wrong, but the Persistent Group plugin runs the SQL trigger only when a host gets added to the group. That means that the behavior you are seeing is normal.

@Sebastian-Roth Thanks for the reply. I think you are right that it is an issue with PHP 8.

Yes please check the apache error log when this happens. See my signature on where to find the log.

I checked the apache error logs and there are no errors from trying to add the host to that group.

Is that one on PHP 8 as well? Please run dpkg -l | grep php-fpm on both servers and post the output here.

I ran the command on both systems and the server using FOG 1.5.94 is using PHP 7.2.24 while the new server with FOG 1.5.9.235 is using 8.1.

Hi all. I installed FOG 1.5.9.235 on an Ubuntu 22.04 server.
I activated the persistent groups plugin and created the host/group.
The issue is presented when trying to add a host to that group, the page just refreshes and goes back to show that the host isn’t a member of any group. It looks to me like FOG tried to add the host to the group, but the system just failed silently.
The same thing happens when I try to add the host through the group’s membership tab. I am able to add the hosts to a normal group without an issue.

I currently have the persistent groups plugin working on my 1.5.9 server (not the same host names or mac addresses).

I know that the plugin is really just a wrapper for the SQL trigger, so did anything change on the SQL side?
I also don’t know if there are any logs that I could look at, or produce through MySQL, to see what happened.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Just tested it on another of our servers using FOG 1.5.9.94 and it DOES work on that version.

@h3krn & @Sebastian-Roth I may be completely wrong about this one (I haven’t really taken a deep dive into this file) but looking at the code, is the issue in the if statement in line 457? I only say this because the comment contradicts the statement. Should the ! be removed from the if statement?

456        # If fixed, add the partition size.
457        if (!match(fixedList, regex)) {
458            # Increment the variable value.
459            original_variable += p_size;
460            continue;
461        }

@chasteencs That’s strange, not sure why they wouldn’t be there. You could get them from https://github.com/FOGProject/fog-client/releases/tag/0.12.2 and place the files in the /var/www/fog/client directory.

@chasteencs Do you see the SmartInstaller.exe & FOGService.msi files in /var/www/fog/client?

@fabiano-matos said in Cannot install a CA Certificate:

I did like you said. In the box fogserver I’ve tried my DNS and my IPV4 address. But still getting the same error.

Few questions:
Just making sure, when you say “my IPV4 address” you mean the FOG Server’s IP address right?

Was this a clean install of the FOG client on the computer or did you have an older version already installed?

Is your FOG server set up with HTTPS? If so, are you checking the Use HTTPS to connect to FOG server box?
