Hello,

I had this message yesterday, the file default.ipxe was not present in /tftpboot (I changed the content of my /tftpboot), I just recreated it with the older one and it was ok

Perhaps it will help you

Tom,

Yes pb mean problem no misunderstanding for me with your answer

You can solve this post, all is ok now, thanks to Sebastian who told me how update / change my boot pxe

Tom,

some months ago the pxe file was changed from the originally file to another file (in dhcpd file ?) because of some which lenovo don’t want to boot correctly.
With the help of Sebastian booting from PXE does not generate any error. Perhaps some files (undionly.kpxe or else) were corrupted or not up to date.

Thanks to all of you my problem is solve

P.S sorry for my english wich is not as good as i wish

Edit : another problem but perhaps with Windows 10 and fog client : once my host registered on my Fog server and the client install on the computer i can’t have an IP with the fog dhcp (no boot pxe, and no IP on windows (169.254 etc…)
If I delete the host, on fog server, reboot on PXE, register the host, create the task to upload the image and reboot without restarting windows PXE is ok and create my image. After image is created, at the restart of windows, again, no IP which consequences no download of the snapins

Hi Sebastian,
My fog server is my DHCP server, and my version of Fog is really 1.2.0. Perhaps when the boot pxe was changed something wrong was done and it’s why you see some pb with the binary.

I’ll try update it.

Thanks for your help

Hi Sebastian,
in the network part in device manager I can see 4 cards (NIC and Blootooth):

Wayne,

here is the content of my dhcpd file :

The OS is Red Hat Enterprise 6.6 (Santiago)
My kernel is update to 4.1.2 (x86_64)

I know the boot file for pxe boot was change some months ago (used ipxe instead of original file because of a lenovo computers who doesn’t want to boot on pxe) Is that you’re talking about ?
My fog server is my dhcp server
Do you know how can i reinstall / change to the original file ?
And the computer is running in legacy mode, i know Fog has problem with UEFI so i always deactivate it on my computers before imaging them

One more thing, i can’t update my fog with the client update menu on the webpage : I have these messages at the log on screen :
Estimated FOG sites: Error contacting server
Latest Version: Error contacting server
When i installed Fog i used wgetrc to configure the proxy in order to download the files on sourceforge, perhaps there is another way to connect my fog server on the internet ?
I’m a real noob with Linux so sorry if i don’t explain well the problem

I forgot the version, it’s FOG 1.2.0
I don’t understand why my NIC is on net1 instead of net0 after ipxe Reimage menu
It looks like a virtual card (?) wants to start before my integrated NIC

Hello,

i have some problem with a HP Probook 450 G3 on PXE Boot
I try to upload this new model on my fog server but on the boot PXE I have an error message after the ipxe Reimage menu :

IPXE initialising devices… WARNING Using legacy NIC wrapper on 00:00:00:00:00:00
ok

iPXE 1.0.0+ (53653) – Open Source Network Boot Firmware – http://ipxe.org

configuring (net1 #MAC ADRESSE of the HP Probook#

Then FOG PXE Menu appeared and indicate that my Host is NOT registered (but of course it is in my fog interface)
I tried register my computer directly with the fog pxe menu but nothing change
If i register again this computer the system tells me that this computer is already registered

I don’t have any pb with another model of computers (Probook 450 G2 for example)
Do you have any idea ?

Hello,

I had the same pb with my sfx file. To solve this i created a .bat file that run the installer (or any other file) which will be run after extract. with this method it works. But perhaps you have already found a solution to your issue
the SFX maker i use is the one created by David Cornish (SFX Maker by http://www.isoft-online.com/ never worked for me)

I found where the problem was, in the /etc/php file I changed the values for a Fedora distrib :
UPLOAD_MAX_FILESIZE to 1900MB
POST_MAX_SIZE to 1900MB
but i didn’t change the value of Limit Memory (Ubuntu and VmWare) who was still at 128MB, change it to 1900MB and it works

ok so the problem must be on my snapin, the last one (Ooffice) return an error 500 while downloading the package (internal server error)
Others package works fine msi or exe

FOG 1.2.0 on Redhat Enterprise 6
And yes, i always clear the snapin task when i see it doesn’t work (I’m testing all my snapin one by one because i just instal my Fog server)
I just reboot my fog Server and client and actually, open office is downloading on my client (it’s very very very slow). It’s an exe created with the same apps (SFX Maker) with a batch file to launch setup.exe with silent argument.
1\ can snapin process/service fail and need to be restart some times and how ?
2\ can i speed up the download from my client (or speed up the upload from Fog) ?

the msi is in an exe file, created by sfx maker (like in the screenshot)
I use the exe to extract the source folder in the C:\temp folder on my client and run my .bat. The problem is that the client doesn’t download the package, on fog server it’s always in “Queued” for hours…

Hello everyone,

I have some problem with some Snapin. I created a .exe file (SFX Maker by David Cornish V2.5 SR -2d) with a .bat inside (with the msiexec argument) for installing some apps (lotus Notes for example); if i launch directly the exe file on the computer the application install is successful but when i put in on my fog server as a snapin… nothing
Others snapins like java, acrobat reader, 7zip, chrome, firefox (msi and exe with arguments) install without problems
Is there something I miss in the snapin creation (sfx) or configuration (snapin menu in fog) ?

here is the complete process for notes :

Copy the sources of notes on my computer
create a .bat file to launch msiexec (msiexec /i “path to lotus.msi” /qb
compress the folder with 7zip (notes.zip)
use sfx maker to create my exe with my .bat as a comand line :

Create my snapin on fog :

Create a single snapin task on my host to test my snapin and…
fog.log on my destination computer :
02/06/2015 10:06 FOG: : SnapinClient Attempting to connect to fog server
02/06/2015 10:06 FOG: : SnapinClient Module is active…

02/06/2015 10:16 FOG: : SnapinClient Attempting to connect to fog server
02/06/2015 10:16 FOG: : SnapinClient Module is active…

On FOG server :

thank you for helping me

My problem is solve, due to a bad password (user fog on linux with not the same password than fog tftp user)
tanks to ch3i for his help

@ch3i said:

@Seydoo Have you the .mntcheck in /storage/images and /storage/images/dev ?

y es I have it (created with touch command)

@Seydoo said:

/storage

Hi,

Your /storage is a local storage or a NFS mount from another system (like Other server, NAS, …)

Regards,
Ch3i.

My /storage is a local storage with all permission (chmod 777)

I just see in my webgui in image management a curious message :
I juste have 1 image created
image name : my image name
image size : ON CLIENT : 0.00iB
Image Size : ON SERVER : FOGFTP : Login failed. Host x.x.x.x, Username: Fog, Password: password (defautlt i didnt touch it for the moment), Error: ftp_login(): Login incorrect

Something strange in the error is this section :

Checking Mounted File System …mounting x.x.x.:/folder/images/dev on /images failed : permission denied

in wiki the “mounting on” isn’t present, could it be the real problem and if yes how can i change this ?

@TheKoR said:

Change /etc/export to :

/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=1,)
/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=2,)
/storage/images *(ro,sync,no_wdelay,insecure_locks,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=3,)
/storage/images/dev *(rw,sync,no_wdelay,no_root_squash,insecure,fsid=4,)

Done but problem still exist
do i have to del /images lines and just keep /storage lines ?

Here is a recap of my tree :

/images
/images/dev
/images/postdownloadscripts
/storage
/storage/images
/storage/images/dev
/storage/images/postdownloadscripts

In storage management image path is /storage/images
