[quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 42363, member: 28155”]I’m going to take a stab at this question. I’ve been using FOG for about 2 months now, it’s working great.

So, you don’t want a storage node at each location because of cost.
My solution to that is to just put a storage node at each location.

It doesn’t need to be anything fancy. An old dual-core with a gigabit interface will get the job done just fine. You could even go with an old P4 with Hyper Threading. It’d be slower, but still.[/quote]

It is also possible to install fog on a [URL=‘http://www.raspberrypi.org/’]Raspberry Pi[/URL]. This could be a cheap solution for you. As of now we have only tested and checked that it has installed correctly on a Pi. But the investment is around $50 a Pi and could possibly be a solution for you. The Pi can sit right next to the router and plugin to the same power strip.

Of course we would be willing to help you at every turn.

Issue:
Fog client service will not join AD domain.
…MAC is NULL!
…MAC does not exist!

Cause: MAC class issues

Issue:
Host Search returns 9~10 results at all times
If the host is not found in the database then it displays 9 unrelated hosts. If host is found it will return 10 hosts with the requested host in the list of 10 hosts.(9 unrelated hosts displayed)
Apache Log Error: NONE

Cause: Suspect an SQL call issue

Solution: Unknown

Issue:
Full Host Registration and Inventory keeps scrolling after registration and never completes
Client Information (Compatibility) Throws errors
Apache Log error:
[php][Wed Feb 18 09:48:18.403560 2015] [:error] [pid 25580] [client 10.0.2.36:59651] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /var/www/fog/lib/fog/MACAddress.class.php on line 58
Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /var/www/fog/service/servicemodule-active.php on line 47
[/php]

Cause: Passing the object MACADDR class not working correctly

Solution 1: Update to r3018 and see below to clean your database
Solution 2: Only register hosts in webgui. If you ran into this issue you will need to clean you database.

---

*Resulting issue from trying to register hosts using r3017: (Host Already registered)
**There will be multiple registrations of your host in the tables but no associating MAC address.

1.)You will need to delete all the host that you tried to register.
[CODE]select * from hosts where hostName=“<hostname>”;[/CODE]
2.)Hopefully multiples have shown up if you have a few hundred this is due to the issue above.
[LIST]
[*]if not then check your hostname you may have typed in the wrong one
[/LIST]
3.) Now delete them all
[CODE]delete from hosts where hostName=“<hostname>”;[/CODE]

*Now register using the webgui until r3018 has been released.

Interesting.

You pulled both power and ethernet?

If you have this issue again could you try just pulling the ethernet cable? There may be a possibility an insertion of a dhcp reset could fix the issue. Maybe?

AH thanks. Don’t know how I missed that.

I do not have wiki user management rights since I am the baby on the dev team. Usually a week or so the manager will read this and grant access.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42251, member: 28367”]PS: the even better thing to do would be for the FOG Client to setup these rules upon install![/quote]

That will be done with the NEW CLIENT INSTALL that is in development as I type this.

From your comments [URL=‘http://fogproject.org/forum/threads/requests-for-wiki-access-ask-here.3811/page-2#post-42253’]here[/URL]. I am assuming that you have partly figured this out?

This error usually occurs due to the password not being encrypted correctly.

Check here and double check your settings.

[B]EDIT[/B]
OR the user you are inputting does not have the proper rights in your AD to join computers to the domain.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42245, member: 28367”]Thanks! Have more. On [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/FOGCrypt’]the FOGCrypt page[/URL] I would like to point out that you can run FOGCrypt on Linux as well with:

[CODE]mono ./FOGCrypt.exe[/CODE]

If it complains about mscorlib.dll, run it as:

[CODE]MONO_PATH=/usr/lib/mono/4.5 mono ./FOGCrypt.exe[/CODE][/quote]

mono is not installed by default by fog I have entered this information but I have also shown that mono must be installed before hand.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42248, member: 28367”]And on [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Managing_FOG#FOG_Tray’]the troubleshooting page[/URL]: there is some formatting issue I think: the phrase “If the PXE boot does not work” is probably meant as an header, has nothing to do with the preceding issue.[/quote]
It’s kind of obvious that I havent finished sprucing up this page yet. I stopped just before Users. See that there is no icons or cleaner formatting? Remember we use our spare time to put into FOG. I assure you that wiki edits occur daily.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42252, member: 28367”]Typo on [URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Client_Setup#Windows_7_3’]this page[/URL]: "

[*]As of FOG 0.28 this is no longer riquired.

What is the typo here? Are you really going to rag on me b/c there is no comma? I didn’t even write this page.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42253, member: 28367”][URL=‘http://www.fogproject.org/wiki/index.php/Managing_FOG#Preparing_the_Image’]This page[/URL] has, I believe, outdated information: “Enter the user name that has access to the computer objects. Include the name of your domain, i.e. mydomain\username”

I believe “mydomain” should be left out since the latest versions.[/quote]

Yes and no. 1.1.0 it is proper but in 1.2.0 and 1.3.0 is should just be username. I have just changed to.

" 7. [FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]Enter the user name that has access to the computer objects. You may need to include the name of your domain. ([/COLOR][/FONT][B][FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000]username [I]OR[/I] mydomain/username[/COLOR][/FONT][/B][FONT=sans-serif][COLOR=#000000])"[/COLOR][/FONT]

Hopefully this will help you with some questions on your OS decisions.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 42212, member: 7271”]My basic guess.

Option 67/filename is still set to pxelinux.0. In FOG 1.x.x, the file name should be changed to undionly.kpxe.[/quote]

Just for future reference you will see changing this dhcp option in the wiki guide to upgrade from 0.32 to 1.x.x. You may want to reference this for other changes.

Ubuntu 14.04 is known for randomly crashing apache2 and tftp. I believe they have released updates to correct this. Try doing:
[CODE]sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
reboot[/CODE]
This should update all your packages. [U]Hopefully[/U] this doesn’t break anything.

[quote=“Tom Elliott, post: 42165, member: 7271”]The fact that it gets ipxe means your tftp server is working fine.

First is the network you’re (basic as it may seem) setup with STP?

If STP is enabled, is it setup for Rapid STP or PortFast?

[quote=“Junkhacker, post: 42151, member: 21583”]i believe that’s an authentication error. verify that the username exists on the domain and has permissions to join computers.[/quote]

The error codes returned from HostnameChanger are Windows error codes. This will also show in your windows logs showing error 1326 which is:
[B]ERROR_LOGON_FAILURE[/B]
1326 (0x52E)
The user name or password is incorrect.

[quote=“Berend de Boer, post: 42118, member: 28367”]Looking for wiki access. I’d like to make a few clarifications, for example firewall exceptions has:

[FONT=monospace][COLOR=#000000]netsh advfirewall firewall add rule name=“Fog Client” dir=in action=allow program=“C:\Program Files\FOG\FOGService.exe”[/COLOR][/FONT]

But for 64-bit that should be “Program Files (x86)” I believe. So copy/paste of that stuff needs some car[/quote]

Yes this was a bit dated but has been corrected now. Thank you for for reporting.

Keep us informed. We will create a wiki based on your information and possibly be able to expand your methods to other NAS drives.

If you copied and pasted the exact information in that install guide that means you copied the example that was 0.32. Please see that wiki again after the resent update. It should be more clear.
