@Wayne-Workman @astrugatch Fedora 35 is now fine on working-1.6 and it will be fine on dev-branch as well as soon as PHP 8 support is done.

@tesparza Thanks for the details. Will look into this.

By chance we might have someone else who just reported the same thing: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/16039/fog-client-not-auto-registering-hosts

Though I am not sure this was fixed in the developer version already. Stay tuned.

@Greg-Plamondon Looks like we have two recent posts saying this is not working: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/16037/remove-validation-on-mac-address-to-allow-for-wildcards-as-well

Though I am not 100% sure both are the exact same setup.

I am not sure this is something that was already fixed in the developer version either. We’ll need to check.

@mrpumba Please search the forums and github for “php-gettext” and you will find out. If you still need further help you need to tell us which Linux OS and version you are using.

@phips said in Active Directory (Groups) settings lose settings when i add a new PC via Regestration and Web GUI:

It wouldn’t be a Problem when i only had one Domain. But with 3 Domains i cant Set the default AD settings in the FOG Configuration.

I can see why this is an issue in your case. Though I don’t have a quick solution for you at hand. Maybe this can be scripted using the API?!

@andy-morris said in Lenovo 14w Gen2:

I just got it going by using the Kernel bzImage-5.15.5 from the fogproject.org/kernels/ list. I will make it the default for bzImage.

Nice! You might even use the newer kernel from github I just compiled a week ago: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releases/tag/20220203

By the way, the pictures you posted show that you were using 4.19.x kernel earlier…

@Andy-Morris Please PXE boot into debug mode, run the following commands and post a picture of the output here:

grep -e sda -e nvme /var/log/messages
lspci -nn | grep -i storage
lsblk
uname -a

@phips said in Active Directory (Groups) settings lose settings when i add a new PC via Regestration and Web GUI:

the Host dont have any AD Settings after the “Join” to the Group

Adding a host to a group does nothing to the host’s AD settings. You need to set the AD settings through the group to have it set for all the hosts within the group.

@nw22 Good you got this solved by switching to non-resizable image type. Would you still tell us what kind of OS and setup you have?

I am not sure resize on BTRFS actually works and we might get some people to look into this if anyone is keen to get this fixed in case it’s really broken.

@alicevintage-0 said in Deploy to ASUS BR1100CKA:

We’ve not tried to install linux manually but a standart install of windows seems to work.

Have you read the topics I posted earlier? All of them say installing Windows is no problem but Linux fails.

The ahci menu has nothing except select disk mode with the only option being ahci.

Can you please post a picture of that here?

@tesparza Did you “Reset Encryption” in the web UI. That should fix this issue.

Edit: Oh well, re-reading your message I finally see what you mean. This is an unregistered host and you want it to auto-register (join FOG) through the fog-client software, right?

I guess there is something going wrong with the registration but we don’t see that in the log file you posted. Please stop the FOGService (Windows service management) on this machine, rename C:\fog.log to C:\fog2.log and start the FOGService again. At the same time while the service starts again you want to take a look at the Apache and PHP-FPM logs on you FOG server. Please post all log information here.

@tenorio-leandro said in Problema https:

But I want change these certificate :
SSLCertificateFile /var/www/fog//management/other/ssl/srvpublic.crt
SSLCertificateKeyFile /opt/fog/snapins/ssl//.srvprivate.key
I want put my certificate in virtual host, but when the boot via pxe stop.
Because this certificate .pem I dont want change in this moment.

Well, if you swap out this certificate and key with your custom files then PXE boot won’t work anymore because iPXE does not know your CA (certificate authority). If you want to fix PXE booting you need to compile fresh iPXE binaries that have your custom CA included.

@mrp Thanks for bringing this topic up again. I lost track of this as well. Just found some time to bring it all back to mind. We’ll surely merge this into the official FOG code sooner or later. Right now we are preparing for a next release soon I am a bit worried about adding the changes I made back in November now in a rush to an official release. We plan to put out another release this year and this would be perfect to be included then.

We might even add the full lsblk code mentioned by George to make WWN work as well.

Please let me know when you get to capture and deploy your NMVe PCs.

How do I implement the link above.

I don’t think the above commit will help you.

Im getting errors with some devices not joining FOG
The authentication part Response Invalid security token.

Usually that is solved be pressing the “Reset Encryption” button in the FOG web UI for these particular hosts you see the error in the fog-client log.

@Phips As you found already the group settings are not lost. Groups in FOG don’t work as persistent settings but instead they’re just a tool to apply settings to several hosts.

Have you checked the individual settings of hosts after applying AD settings to those hosts via group yet. That should work and I don’t see why you want to mess with the “persistent groups” plugin. It’s up to you but remember that those plugins are less well supported than FOG core features.

@needtofog said in Image Deployment - Add Argument from GUI?:

when selecting the host tab > click deploy icon next to host > it list the mac and a few other items. I do not see a debug option.

You should the a checkbox named “Schedule as debug task” right where you can schedule a deploy task in the FOG web UI. Let the device boot up via PXE as usual but instead of starting the deploy it will offer a console (after you hit ENTER twice) on that machine. Now here you can check the IP (ip a s), set a temporary root password (passwd) and then login to that PC via SSH.

@lsathya I am pretty sure we had other users with a similar issue in that network interface card. Please search the forum for “realtek 8111”.

@nw22 We added BTRFS support about a year back but I don’t think many people have tested it thoroughly. Take a look at the discussion here: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15159/btrfs-postdownloadscript

I would think the error message can be ignored but I am not sure.

Is this the last message you see? Please take a picture of the screen and post that here.

@tenorio-leandro When using a custom certificate you need to re-compile iPXE (the sofware showing the error message) to include that certificate: https://docs.fogproject.org/en/latest/reference/compile_ipxe_binaries.html#build-script

In your case you need to call the build script with the CA (!) certificate file name as parameter: ./buildipxe.sh /path/to/ca.cert.pem

Do you plan to use the fog-client software as well? This would add some more complexity to the certificate story if you want to use a custom one.

@kweldon We had someone with a similar issue here in the forums: https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/15886/hp-405-g6-deploy-error

Using a newer kernel (5.15.x) made it work for him. You can get out 5.15.x development kernel here: https://github.com/FOGProject/fos/releases/tag/20220203
