I have an image going up now. I’ll see what it does.
Well those two images just completed successfully, so I don’t know what the deal was. The 4 test images before them all had the error.

@Sebastian-Roth said in New Image Upload - Stuck on Updating Database:
@Scott-B Are you able to access the FOG web UI just fine while it hangs at that stage? Also check the PHP FPM log (see my signature).
GUI is working great during that time. Error on using the command in your sig.
root@fogserver:/# php-fpm log (/var/log/php*-fpm.log)
-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('
Pushing up a new image and everything seems to go fine until the very end where it updates the database. It will sit for a long time, eventually retry, and eventually fail and reboot.
FOG 1.5.6.2
Ubuntu 18.04.2
@AllenYoest said in Adding Hiren’s BootCD PE to Advanced Menu:
I managed to get it working using the Windows PE instructions provided here:
Good link. I hadn’t seen that one before. That helped me get further than I have. Almost boots, but I get an error after it starts.
Resource exceeds length of file
Emulating drive 0x01
FATAL: no bootmgr.exe
Press a key to reboot...

ould also be interested. You have tried t
I have, but the “new” Hirens seems to require something different.
@Scott-B said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
I think we are good. I was able to add DBAN back to the menu list.
For anyone who may find this thread down the road below is the quick advanced menu I wrote for this thread.

@Sebastian-Roth said in Clear Primary User and Other Tag Fields:
actually clear those fields for ALL your hosts! If you don’t have a backup, there is no way back after running tho
Perfect, exactly what I needed. Thank you!
What would be the easiest way to blank out the fields for Primary User, Other Tag #1, and Other Tag #2 under the inventory tab for every host in FOG?
@Sebastian-Roth said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B You need to define a proper menu code yourself. The
...is not enough. Who designed your advanced menu last time?
I think we are good. I was able to add DBAN back to the menu list.
@Sebastian-Roth said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B Well then start adding your advanced menu code here:
#!ipxe ...
That get’s me past the chainload error and drops me off at a blinking cursor.
@Sebastian-Roth said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B As mentioned yesterday you need to disable Firefox Add-in AdBlock Plus to see the field. Not sure why that is but I figured that
Doh! I must have only allowed it temporarily. The field is there now. It’s blank.
@Sebastian-Roth said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B What have you set in the “Advanced Menu Command” field?
It’s blank and uneditable.
@Sebastian-Roth said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
I made the change to /var/www/html/fog/service/ipxe/advanced.php as suggested. The menu still isn’t working but does a few extra errors about Exec format as seen in the image below.
@dijsil said in 70Pcs imaging all unbranded:
on a virtual machine, when I boot from the pcs to pull image will they still work and then if I have missing drivers I can install manually after the image is deployed.
I’m assuming your using Windows? Windows generic drivers should get the PC to boot after an image but you will have unknown devices under device manager if they are unknown to windows. I’ve pulled down our normal sysprep image down on some unique devices and this was the case. You can always add drivers to your windows install on your sysprep image as well.

@george1421 said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B Did you ever have an advanced menu?
Yes. We used to memtest or dban from it.
@george1421 said in chainloading failed advanced menu:
@Scott-B If you call the advanced menu as I have defined the URL what do you get? I think we have 2 issues here.
- Your advanced menu is not right
- You can’t edit it because the field is blank.
First lets see what your advanced menu looks like.
All I get is
