@Tom-Elliott Sorry I was at lunch.
But Elliot, you are a legend. It works now. No errors, and the webgui works. Gonna make a new image and try upload/download and all that.
I’m not good with linux in general, what did those commands do exactly?

@Tom-Elliott @Quazz
Running yum update or yum install php will install the 5.3.3 version. If I let fog install php, it will still be the 5.3.3 version.
I found a way to install 5.6, so that the webgui could work. But running ./installfog with the 5.6 installed, results in Php… Failed!
Anyway, I’ve remove the packages line from fogsettings, but I’m still getting failed on backing up database

@Tom-Elliott @quazz All right so now I ran installfog.
I got the php… Failed!! as expected because I have the 5.6 version.
so I uninstalled it, and now it’s installing the 5.3.3 version again.
So, running ./installfog.sh right now, and Backing up database… Failed!!
Also, the webGUI is now blank.

What now?

@Tom-Elliott all right, I ran svn up
Now I need to run ./installfog.sh again right?

as I said, this is before I update SVN. Will run svn upgrade now

Version 1.3.0-RC-1
SVN Revision: 5936

SVN revision is before I updated SVN though, I have now reverted the server to before it was updated.

Server

• FOG Version: 1.3.0
• OS: Centos 6.8 64-bit

Description

Hi. I’ve been setting up a new fogserver. it’s virtual one with vmware.
I installed CentOS, updated the system, and installed Fog 1.3.0.
First, the webGUI would show, stated that I had php version 5.3.3, and I needed at least 5.5.5, so I updated php to 5.6. Easy. the webgui works, I can log in and everything.
then, I updated the svn, and ran ./installfog.sh again. Now it failed on php. so, I uninstalled 5.6, and fog installed the 5.3.3 version for me again. Now, here’s the problem;
Backing up Database… Failed!
I can’t get past that, and the webgui is just blank, no error or anything.
I updated php to 5.6 again, but it didnt make a difference.
I have tried to stop/start mysql service, I’ve tried uninstall/install mysql, but nothing.
Still wont work.
Any ideas?
PS: I have a snapshot from before I updated SVN, where the webgui works.

Nvm, I tried another kernel, Version : 4.1.2 and it worked.
Case closed

Hello.
We have bought in some new computers, Dell Latitude E5570.
Previously we had the E5550, and they worked fine.
But E5570 doesnt. If I try to register the host, it says “Could not register host due to the following reasons: nothing”
So I tried to manually register the host in webGUI, and deploy image, but that didn’t work either. It stuck in an endless loop with no text on the screen at all.
I read that it might be because of the fog kernel beeing old, so through the webgui I installed the latest kernel, and tried again.
It did load the new kernel, which I named bzimage2, but I got the same result.

Can someone help me with this issue?

@Joe-Schmitt Okay so I fixed the initial issue with copying over the HostNameChanger.dll from an old image. Now I’m facing a new issue.
The log file now says this:

 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger Attempting to connect to fog server...
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger Module is active...
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger AD mode requested, confirming settings.
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger Hostname is up to date
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger Attempting to join domain if not already a member....
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::HostnameChanger netdom output: 
 30.05.2016 09:25 FOG::PrinterManager Module is active...

It’s progress I guess, but it still wont join domain.
netdom.exe is located under c:\windows\system32 and the path is correct in config.ini
What now?

@Joe-Schmitt I can try. I’ve heard you get different results based on wether you use fogcrypt on a windows or linux. Is that true?

@Jbob Hmm. I have also tried on 0.32-fogserver now, and I got the same result. I uninstalled and deleted the 1.2 client of course, and installed the 0.32 client from the 0-32servers webGUI. Still same problem, so it has to do something with my image.
You have any idea what it might be?

@Jbob I am using the default one.

Hello.
I’ve had FOG for years, and it has worked almost flawlessly.
Yesterday I prepared a new image for school, and I uploaded it, and downloaded it, just to check everything.
I always make sure everything works before I start massdeployment of images to schoolcomputers.
And I’ve always used hostname changer to change machinename and join domain.
When I tried it today, hostnamechanger changed the name, rebooted, and when I expected it to join domain, it did nothing.
I checked the log files, and here it is:

26/05/2016 09:48 FOG::HostnameChanger AD mode requested, confirming settings.
26/05/2016 09:48 FOG::HostnameChanger Padding is invalid and cannot be removed.

   at FOG.FOGCrypt.decrypt(Byte[] cipherData, String Password)
   at FOG.FOGCrypt.decryptHex(String hex)
   at FOG.HostNameChanger.changeHostName()

I’ve googled it, but didn’t find a real answer.
I’ve checked AD settings in FOG, the password is encrypted with fogcrypt.
The FOG Client was downloaded and installed from my FOG-servers web-based GUI. (Also tried to reinstall it, with no luck)
I have never had this problem before, and no the password of my admin account has not changed since.

Info: The FOG-server runs on Centos 6.something. FOG is version 1.2.0

Please help

Okay, but why does partclone images take so long to upload then?
It takes like 5 times more time to upload a partclone image vs partimage

Yeah, well I was hoping not to read walls of text.
As I understand, 0.32 (which I had before 1.1) was using partimage right?
But 1.1 also provides partclone. Why did you add this?

What differs partclone from partimage?

Hi!

I’ve used Fog for a while, and I recently updated to the new version.
I am not that good or familiar with linux, I only know the basics.

So what is the difference between partimage and partclone in this new fog?
And please try to explain newbie-friendly

I solved it. I did what you said, but now I have another problem, which I think I have the solution to, but I dont have the time to test it right now.
You see, I wanted to update one of my images, so I downloaded it, updated it, and tried to upload it again, to the same image.
But it didnt work, but I think this is the solution; when I imported my images from the old fogserver, I was logged inn as root.
That means root is the owner of the files, so fog doesnt have the rights to change/delete it. If I delete the files from root, log in as fog user, and import the images, will that fix the problem?

Hi!

I am running Fog 0.32 on Centos 6.4
I copied over my image files from my old fog server to this new one.
I have also uploaded some images.

the strange thing is, some of the images are not showing up in fog in webbrowser, while some of them do.
If I for example try to register host, I can choose the exact same images as listed in webbrowser.

if I go ls -l /images, I can see that some images have drwxrwxrwx, and some has drwx, and some has rwx

but, two of my images has drwxrwxrwx, but only one is showing up in webbrowser.
What must I do to list all my images?

ehm, it seems like we fixed it on our own.

The server was set up with DNS and gateway, which we really dont need since it is in local network.
We removed DNS and gateway from the IPv4 settings, rebooted the server and it is no longer delaying.

Thanks for the replies anyway!
