    • Fog client won't connect back to server

      We updated to the latest working-1.6 version at the start of this week. Now all my clients are not connecting to the host and won’t perform any tasks.

      The error in fog.log on the client states:

      Reinstalling the FOG client gets:

      How can I reconnect my clients?
      Thanks!

    • RE: [BUG] iPXE Boot Loop & Menu Failure After FOG 1.5.10.1660 Upgrade

      @george1421 said in [BUG] iPXE Boot Loop & Menu Failure After FOG 1.5.10.1660 Upgrade:

      If undionly.kpxe worked in bios mode then snp.efi should work in uefi mode

      Hi George, the BIOS claims its in UEFI mode but when booting it looks suspiciously like legacy (larger text etc). Its an old Viglin with a second generation i3 which is being retired this October so its not too much of a deal now I have a workaround.

    • RE: [BUG] iPXE Boot Loop & Menu Failure After FOG 1.5.10.1660 Upgrade

      @Tom-Elliott Hi Tom, sorry that I’ve misposted. Your suggestion of trying a realtek.efi didn’t work but it prompted me to try using undionly.kpxe instead. This worked, so maybe its a UEFI / legacy hybrid BIOS? Not sure how its working, but it is.

      Thanks, and sorry to crash OP’s post.

      @Jim-Holcomb @Tom-Elliott Did you get anywhere with this? We’re having a similar issue that started today. Only affecting older machines, UEFI boot.

      See attached for Pcap, PC hangs at “iPXE initialising devices… autoexec.ipxe not found”

      Doesn’t matter if I set snp.efi, snponly.efi or ipxe.efi. PC hangs for exactly five minutes then reboots.

      We’re on working-1.6, latest update. I’ve done a git clean as suggested above.

    • New FOG master server - broken CA Certificate trust

      I’ve recreated our master FOG server onto a new VM, imaging is working correctly. However, the CA certificates have presumably changed to match and the FOG clients installed on all our machines (and images) now won’t connect as the CA doesn’t match.

      Is there a way to either:

      • copy over the old certificates from the original server to the new one OR

      • copy / install the new CA certificate to the client machines so they reconnect?

      Cheers

      I deleted the private and public SSL certs and reran the installer, seems to have fixed it.

    • RE: OS Details no longer working

      @rogalskij said in OS Details no longer working:

      For those experiencing the same issue on mainstream linux distros, navigate to your “resolv.conf” config file located in /etc/resolv.conf and add your individual search domains. Test a ping to a DNS name via command line on the box itself, then check your GUI again. Took about 2 minutes for it to reflect and show for me.

      I’ve just done this, and now noticing a remarkable increase in performance of the 1.6 web page. Thank you!

    • FOG 1.6.0-beta.2143 - Search no longer working with serial numbers

      Previously, we were able to search hosts by serial number, the SN that was stored in Inventory Static under “System Serial”. This no longer works in the latest version.

      Not sure if bug or by design.

      @Laurent we’re on FOG 1.6, but I think its the same as 1.5.10. FOG doesn’t let you see the AD password once input, but I’d echo @JJ-Fullmer’s point of using a specific account

      Do you get any error message in the FOG.log file in the root of C on a client?

    • RE: Snapins not deploying: Illegal characters in path.

      @Tom-Elliott updated to 2138 but now snapins not working. No http or https in the Communication download string. This is on the master FOG server, I haven’t updated the storage nodes yet.
