Hello, Thanks for that, sorry, I wasn't sure how to do it. I'm new to using an unattend file and even using sysprep is new. I've sysprep'd it now, the machine has turned off, I'll turn it back on and see if it loads, I'll then re-sysprep it and then upload the image to FOG, download it and then see if that works. It usually fails the sysprep part when it downloads from FOG, yet it works everywhere else, on Lenovo machines, but just not our Dell Optiplex 3040's. I'll keep you updated. Thanks, Dan

Hello, Yes, I created the unattend.xml file via the WAIK - Windows Automated Installation Kit, and then put that in the c:\Windows\System 32\Sysprep\ folder, and then run the script... @echo offcd c:\windows\system32\sysprepsysprep /oobe /generalize /unattend:c:\windows\system32\sysprep\unattend.xml Not sure if anyone wants to check my .xml file to make sure it's OK? It works fine whenever I run it from the machine itsself, before uploading it to FOG... Once I upload the image to FOG, then it's when I'm downloading it, that's when it fails, even though, it works fine normally.

Hello, Where on the FOG server is the install.wim file located? Thanks, Dan

Hello All, I'm not sure if this is possible at all, just a stab in the dark... Basically, if a machine is locked by a user, is there a way to plug a USB Stick in to the machine, and a dialog box appears from the lock screen asking an administrator to enter their credentials to unlock the machine. Quite often, we can get asked to look at an issue after school, once the students have gone home, and staff lock their machine and walk away, meaning they're not in the classroom when we go to visit and get the problem sorted out. I can go back to the office and use Impero to unlock the machine, this could be an issue if the machine is unlocked while I'm walking back to the classroom. Is there a way to log on as an admin account from a USB stick, basically something where once the stick is inserted, and the machine is locked, a dialog box appears, and the machine asks for a Domain admin credentials?? Or is there another way to do it without having to switch user? Thanks, Dan

Hello, I need some help quite quick.. basically, I've setup a FOG server, got all that working... I've created an unattend.xml file and that appears to work on the machine, i.e, i've tested it numerous times on the same machine, and it does what it's supposed to... My issue is, I've uploaded the image to the FOG server on Friday, and it downloads to machines, but on some machines it works, but they have to be imaged one at a time - the machine that I created the image from is exactly the same as the others, we've just bought a whole batch of them - DELL 3040's, they work fine, but the image isn't working properly, I'm slightly worried as I've got X3 IT suites to image and have ready for next week. Just to clear that above up... I've setup FOG, machines are all registered, image name and ID is assigned to the group for the classroom number, if I image X5, or 10, they fail at the sysprep part, the problem is, I get different errors on multiple machines, even though they're exactly the same... One of the errors are: 'Setup is starting services' - with the white animated bar at the bottom, the message says: Install Windows 'Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation'. The other error is: 'Setup is preparing your computer for first use' - again, same animated bar, the message says: 'The computer restarted unexpectedly or encountered an unexpected error, Windows installation cannot proceed. To install Windows, click 'OK' to restart the computer, and then restart the installation'... Please help me, if I re-download the image a few times, it'll work, but then on most of them it fails. Thanks, Dan

Excellent, that's what I've done, kept a standard image, and not syspreped it, but then kept another image which has been syspreped, and is ready for deployment, I thought that was easier.

Thank you for your reply, I'll take a look at the article. Thanks! Dan

Hello, I've recently setup a FOG server for our school OS deployment, everything's working as it should, I've created my image, uploaded it to the server etc etc, my question is, to save time, do I need to sysprep my image or not, FOG still allows me to upload it to the server without preforming a sysprep. Is it a good idea to sysprep, or not to sysprep? Thanks in advance, Dan

Hello, I'm stuck on getting my FOG client deployment... I receive the error below when I am waiting for the machine to auto join the domain. Please can anyone advise what I need to do?

Hello All, I'm in the process of re-creating out build images at work... We currently don't use SOLUS to deploy SIMS.NET, we use the SIMS.INST.exe to install SIMS, however, this is a manual process... I've managed to setup zero touch deployment by using scripts and Windows Image Manager, to eit config files and create a unattend.xml file, and it skips all the setup process and creates the admin account, re-enables the Administrator account (as this gets disabled via sysprep), then just logs on, picks up the naming convention from FOG, restarts the machine, and changes it's name, then joins the domain and adds it to the correct OU... anyway, happy days... My question/problem that I'm facing is... I'm wanting a way to install SIMS without having to go on to each teacher machine and run that sims.inst file, as that's a manual process and takes more time, at the same time, as I've said above, we don't have SOLUS setup or configured. Would it be possible to install SIMS as part of the image, then it's already installed on the machine, or is there a way that I can set a 'runonce' script to install SIMS via cmd, only once it's joined the domain - the problem is, we're a MAT school, and have a blueprint across all the schools as they're all the same type of school, so I'm not allowed to change any group policies, or add/edit anything. So, basically, just to sum up, I'm wanting to know if it's better to bake SIMS into my image for all staff machines, or run a script manually on each teacher machine to install it? Thanks in advanced. Dan

I eventually got this working, but can't actually remember how, it was a while ago. I don't work in that job anymore - hope someone can help! Dan

Managed to get it all sorted out in the end, just updated to the latest version, and all is good! Thanks for your help. DAn

Hmmmm, I've selected the RAW Partition and it appears to be uploading the image. very strange, is that the best approach? Thanks, Dan

Yeah, that's the error I get... I'll have to re-install Windows anyway, somehow I've messed the image up lol, so have to start again anyway. I'll make sure that there is nothing on it at all, except the C:/ drive - I'll get back to you... What partition should I be selecting? 'Multiple Partitions - not resizable? Thanks, Dan

Hi, No, it doesn't even start to upload the image, I just seem to be getting an error; one of the errors are: *Preparing to send image to server. *Checking Mounted System...............Done *Using Image: Windows7EnterpriseFinal *Perparing backup location............Done *Looking for Hard Disks................Done *Using Hard Disk: /dev/sda An error has detected! No resizable partitions found. Computer will reboot in 1 minute. That's all I'm getting, and I get different errors each time I click on the 'Image Type', and select the different options. Please help, surely it must be something simple that I'm missing... The machines are band new out of the box, I've installed Windows 7 Enterprise on, I know there's two Partitions on there, there's a recovery partition, and then the C:\ drive... Could it be the recovery partition that's causing the issues? Thanks, Dan

Hi, Yes, it boots to FOG Fine, and has been registered as I've said above. I'm just not too sure about how to upload the image to the server. I've registered the machine with FOG, and it appears under the 'host' menu, which is correct... Please see the two attached images... I've got the image ready to upload, it just won't get past the point where the screen goes blue and it begins the upload process. Dan

Hello, I've managed to get FOG installed and finally working, went back to an older version... Now for some more help if possible, I've got X100 of the same machines Dell Optiplex 3040's all with 256GB SSD's - I've created my master image, and I'm now trying to upload the image to the FOG server. I've registered the machine with FOG, entered a host name etc etc. Back on the FOG console; If I go to 'Image Management', then create a new image, give it a name, the bit that I'm getting stuck with is: [TABLE=class: tablesorter tablesorter-default, width: 100%] [TR=class: alt1] [TD]mage Name[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Image Description[/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR=class: alt1] [TD]Storage Group[/TD] [TD]- Please select an option -default - (1)[/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Operating System[/TD] [TD]- Please select an option -Linux - (50) Other - (99) Windows 2000/XP - (1) Windows 7 - (5) Windows 8 - (6) Windows 8.1 - (7) Windows 98 - (3) Windows Other - (4) Windows Vista - (2)[/TD] [/TR] [TR=class: alt1] [TD]Image Path[/TD] [TD]/images/ [/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD]Image Type[/TD] [TD]- Please select an option -Single Disk - Resizable - (1) Multiple Partition Image - Single Disk (Not Resizable) - (2) Multiple Partition Image - All Disks (Not Resizable) - (3) Raw Image (Sector By Sector, DD, Slow) - (4)[/TD] [/TR] [TR=class: alt1] [TD][/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [TR] [TD][/TD] [TD][/TD] [/TR] [/TABLE] What do I select for the 'Image Type'?? The disk is a 256GB SSD and will not be changing it's size or anything, so I selected 'Multiple Partition - Single Disk (Not Re sizable)... It doesn't appear to be working, and I seem to be getting errors, I can boot to FOG fine as I've registered it fine, got my image ready to upload, but it doesn't want to. Please help. Thanks, Dan

Hi, Thanks for your message, I've managed to get that bit sorted out now, however I'm now getting an error message about the database/schema. I've checked the config files and the information is identical to the below: private static function db_settings() { define('DATABASE_TYPE','mysql'); // mysql or oracle define('DATABASE_HOST',''); define('DATABASE_NAME','fog'); define('DATABASE_USERNAME',''); define('DATABASE_PASSWORD',""); Mine has the information filled out, including the username and password for the DATABASE. Please help, I don't want to have to re-install FOG again, this will be the third time installing it again. Thanks, Dan

Right, that's seems to be sorted... Now i can load the FOG page etc... I get the error message about the database: [h=1]http://10.31.97.240/fog/management/css/default/images//fog-logo.png[/h][h=2]Open Source Computer Cloning Solution[/h] Running Version 1.3.4 SVN Revision: 6064 [h=1]Database Schema Installer / Updater[/h]Your database connection appears to be invalid.

How do I know if i've installed MY SQL? i don't remember installing it... I'm running the installer again now, will message you when i'm not sure what to put for the answers... It says installing apache2..................... Dan

so in terminal... CD ./Desktop ls lists the installer located on the desktop cd fog_1.3.4 ls cd bin bin$ sudo ./installfog.sh Then go through the install process again... When it gets to the SQL bit, what do i type then, does it have a password? yes or no? Forgive me, i'm new to this. Dan

On the YouTube video, it brought a grey box up and asked for the password, when I did it, it didn't. Is there a way I can edit the password, rather than having to re-install it again? Thanks, Dan

Which version do you think I should install? I've looked in that file path and had a look at the error log, this is what I'm seeing: [Mon Jan 30 12:26:25.263289 2017] [mpm_event:notice] [pid 7366:tid 140281219909504] AH00489: Apache/2.4.25

Thanks, Dan

If I remove the /fog/management from the end, i get the Apache page, but then as soon as I click on the file that says FOG, nothing happens, and I get the same error. Please can you let me know how to do the above as you've said... I'm new to it, well, haven't set it up for a while. Thanks, Dan
