a. A big warning needs to be added that deployment does not work. (building a package)
+
=known bugs=
 +
There are still some bugs in this RPM... Help us to fix them!
 +
==ipdiscover bug==
 +
===ipdiscover on SME===
 +
IpDiscover is not working on SME. Please use another agent to ipdiscover your networks at the moment.
   −
b. /glpi logs in but there is nothing to see, are there other steps to do ?
+
I've opened a [http://forums.ocsinventory-ng.org/viewtopic.php?pid=5684#p5684 thread] on OCS forum.
   −
c. cactus, did you revert more than you intended ?<br>
+
Let's hope the next version will come out soon!
see http://wiki.contribs.org/index.php?title=OCS_Reports_and_GLPI&oldid=5868 <br>
+
===ipdiscover-util.pl===
and the current fr version, there are manual references and OCS usage<br>
+
This script used by the web interface do not seem to work too.
I was going to remove the deployment section when i couldn't get it to work but it was all gone ;-)
      +
First thing to do is to change the password in this file...
 +
...
 +
my $dbhost = 'localhost';
 +
my $dbuser = 'ocs';
 +
my $dbpwd = 'ocs'; <==
 +
my $db = 'ocsweb';
 +
my $dbp = '3306';
 +
The password should be dynamical as this is a perl script. We need to use esmith::ConfigDB or something else to retrieve this value... I was unable to handle that.

Also a problem, the script cannot be executed. I try to add script handler for .pl but it didn't worked... Not sure about how this is working, if someone can help, please do!

Yes, deployment does not work right now.
+
==www/ocs/install.php bugs==
I'm trying to fix it.
+
A problem was found in the default imported database. This ends with some ''alter'' errors. This can be fixed by refreshing the web page.
First thing, you need to delete this line on Apache template 97ocs:
  −
php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/inventory/ocs/
     −
Now the problem is that OCS locates the "download" folder in ''/home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/download/'' instead of ''/opt/inventory/ocs/download''
+
I took a look on ocsweb database with phpmyadmin before and after using install.php
   −
I think they use the Apache real "DocumentRoot" to locate this folder...
+
I noticed that a lot of tables' ''engine type'' were ''MyISAM'' and after using install.php their type was ''InnoDB''!
If you know a workaround, I'm listening!
  −
Adding the download folder in Primary ibay with www:www 0770 corrected the upload problem but this folder shouldn't go in the Primary ibays for many reasons!
      +
So I tried to export a new database (this time with extended parameters), but this new database don't import in ocsweb database: it ends with errors trying to create the 1st table!

Help needed!

Stefen, I've added a few pics for GLPI. It's not very detailled but at least people will know how to sync GLPI with OCS.

Maybe we should add back IP discovery and deployment sections and make a warning box to warn people that ipdiscovery has not been tested yet and that deployment do not work right now. That's what I did in the French article (as I translated the modified article into French while you were reverting changes)
+
=wiki page=
As soon as I will find a fix for the download folder, I will build a new RPM.

==5.3.2 Deployment menu==
 +
 
 +
there must be a lot of ways this could be used,
 +
why make everyone think of them themselves when it could be spelled out
 +
 
 +
this could be a new page, [[:Application deployment]]
 +
 
 +
this could include other ways to deploy, eg using netlogon.bat
 +
 
 +
others can work on this cool34000 has done enough
 +

Here's the way I've always used OCS... First I import the standard ''ocsagent.exe'' in MySQL.
 +
 
 +
I don't like to install a service when it's not needed, so I use the standalone executable. I also don't use OCS deployment feature (I'm using GPOs for that)
 +
 
 +
It is so fast to use against the need of installing the Agent: put OcsLogon.exe in a share folder and simply launch it with a one command line batch script each time a session is opened.
 +
@echo off
 +
\\server\share\mydomain.com.exe /np /debug /tag:my_tag
 +
That's all!
 +
 
 +
Of course, more can be done...
 +
 
 +
*Install the Agent silently in a script
 +
*Use GPOs (deploy, install, update)
 +
*Create your own ''ocsagent.exe''
 +
People need to read the guide! It's well documented.
 +
 
 +
If someone can take some time to document that, it would be nice!
