    • RE: Relationship between DB and GUI for hosts

      Wayne,
      Thanks for the reply - Sorry I should have added all the info you requested in my first post:
      Ubuntu 14.04 LTS
      Upgraded from 1.2.0
      Reason for upgrade was simply browsing this forum and noticing a few other issues that I was encountering was fixed fixed in other trunks…so I just figuring updating to the latest trunk would be the best idea. I have searched through the forums in regards to possible host issues and I could see this query being referenced :

      SELECT * FROM hosts WHERE hostID NOT IN (SELECT hmhostID FROM hostMAC);

      this only brings back 1 host…so it seems that the hostsID and hostMAC’s match bar 1…

      Thanks again

      @Tom-Elliott I managed to fix this…I noticed the only difference between the 1 host working from the old config was no spaces in the name! after updating the db name from test 1 to test_1 it now appears in the gui!! So spaces make a difference in the name!

      Thanks again for rapid help and expect more from me to help this project in any way.
      Regards

      This approach makes sense! This should be filed under a doc change for best practices when booting from local custom iso’s! 🙂

      @george1421
      So is it fair to say any Advanced Menu customization will cause issues if configured in previous versions and upgrading to 1.3.x?

      Thanks I figured as much! - the only other concern for me was the update wiping out my customs ISO’s!.
      Thanks

      Hey George - from the advanced menu and this was all configured in 1.20 then upgraded to 1.3.5 - I have quite a long list of around 10 items - I use the advanced menu for WINPE booting as well as other useful ISO’s - very useful! - I did notice more options for the advanced menu in 1.3.5…
      Thanks

      @george1421
      Thanks for the reply - The thing here is that I have 2 vm’s - The original one upgraded to 1.3.5 and the Centos one is a fresh 1.3.5 with just the database and images copied across. If I just concentrate on the upgraded one (ubuntu) the 2 issues are that after going to 1.3.5 the advanced menu no longer works with the Could not boot - result too large" “Chainloading failed…” - and the fact the upgrade seemed to wipe out subfolders in the ipxe dir…

      I did manage to get passed the “result too large” error by recreating the advanced menu list with starting form the line “Menu” - It would seem to me that there are change’s in 1.3.5 that dont mesh if you have previous populated advanced menu items prior to the upgrade - What was obvious to me what that there seemed to be some enhancements to the menus items in 1.3.5 which may explain the issue - Of course this also could just be something in my environment…Im a software engineer so im fully aware this could be user issue… 🙂

      Thanks!

      Description

      Hey All - Firstly again let me start with a praise - Nothing but love for the fog project. So onto my issue - After upgrading to 1.3.5 the Advanced Menu no longer works…on the boot screen when the Advanced menu is selected it gives an error stating " Could not boot - result too large" “Chainloading failed…” - I was going to migrate over from my ubuntu installation anyway to a Centos server so I setup fog fresh on the Centos side - all good…I imported the fog database and the images it all seemed ok - however the advanced menu was still giving the same error - I did get it to work by starting the populate the advanced menu again just starting from “menu” - Am I right in thinking that there might be a few differences between the way the advanced menu works in 1.3.5 compared to earlier versions? Also one other strange issue - I placed a few custom ISO’s in an iso folder (…fog/service/ipxe/iso) - I use these to boot from in the Advanced menu but the upgrade wiped this out from my ubuntu vm???

      @Tom-Elliott Yeah sorry I didn’t provide enough information - being a software engineer myself I know that the key is in the detail! Still this will be a nice quick fix if anyone else see this or if its added to any FAQ.
