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!

==www/ocs/install.php bugs==
 +
A problem was found in the default imported database. This ends with some ''alter'' errors. This can be fixed by refreshing the web page.
 +
 +
I took a look on ocsweb database with phpmyadmin before and after using install.php
 +
 +
I noticed that a lot of tables' ''engine type'' were ''MyISAM'' and after using install.php their type was ''InnoDB''!
 +
 +
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)
+
==5.3.2 Deployment menu==
As soon as I will find a fix for the download folder, I will build a new RPM.
      +
there must be a lot of ways this could be used,
 +
why make everyone think of them themselves when it could be spelled out
   −
[[User:Cool34000|Cool34000]]
+
this could be a new page, [[:Application deployment]]
   −
Hi again...
+
this could include other ways to deploy, eg using netlogon.bat
   −
I've made a new RPM with a few modifications. New RPM&SRPM can be found [http://mirror.contribs.org/contribs/sgomez/inventory here] (as soon as mirors will sync)
+
others can work on this cool34000 has done enough
*index.php was fixed by adding the following line to fix the location of the download folder:
  −
$_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]="/opt/inventory/ocs";
  −
*ocsagent.exe was added to ./ocs/files/ (found this info in ''guide.pdf'')
     −
*Apache template was modified to allow upload. I don't know if the 1st modification is useful:
+
Stefen
Alias /download /opt/inventory/ocs/download
+
----
...
+
Here's the way I've always used OCS... First I import the standard ''ocsagent.exe'' in MySQL.
php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/inventory/ocs:/tmp

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)
   −
yes the howto should warn deploy and ipdiscover don't work yet
+
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!
   −
thanks for the new rpm, deploy > build now works (uploads to downloads)
+
Of course, more can be done...
   −
deploy > activate fails, currently you can't see www/download, you need to edit the httpd fragment. eg.
+
*Install the Agent silently in a script
Alias /download /opt/inventory/ocs/download
+
*Use GPOs (deploy, install, update)
<Directory /opt/inventory/ocs/download>
+
*Create your own ''ocsagent.exe''
    Options None
+
People need to read the guide! It's well documented.
    Options +Indexes
  −
    Options +Includes
  −
    AllowOverride None
  −
    order deny,allow
  −
    deny from all
  −
    allow from 127.0.0.1 192.168.35.0/255.255.255.0
  −
  php_admin_value open_basedir /opt/inventory/ocs:/tmp
  −
</Directory>
     −
now you can see it but activate still fails !@#$
+
If someone can take some time to document that, it would be nice!
