Puppet users - Sep 2007 - Solaris ingores server variable

Hi everyone,

I got a basic puppetmaster setup, which works well for Linux.

I''ve setup a basic function:
define remotefile($owner = root, $group = root, $mode, $source, $backup false,
$recurse = false) {
        file {
                $name:
                mode => $mode,
                owner => $owner,
                group => $group,
                backup => $backup,
                source => [

"puppet://$server/$sitename/$sitename/host/$hostname/$source",
                       
"puppet://$server/$sitename/$sitename/$source",
                        "puppet://$server/$sitename/standard/$source"
                ]
        }
}

(sitename is a custom fact)

an example of a usage is:

        remotefile { "/etc/hosts.allow": mode => 644, source =>
"etc/hosts.allow" }


when executing in on Linux puppet client, works great, however when I
execute it on Solaris I get the following output:

err:
//default/unix/remotefile[/etc/hosts.allow]/File[/etc/hosts.allow]/source:
Could not describe /kia/kia/host/didrik/etc/hosts.allow: Could not connect
to localhost on port 8140
err:
//default/unix/remotefile[/etc/hosts.allow]/File[/etc/hosts.allow]/source:
Could not describe /kia/kia/etc/hosts.allow: Could not connect to localhost
on port 8140
err:
//default/unix/remotefile[/etc/hosts.allow]/File[/etc/hosts.allow]/source:
Could not describe /kia/standard/etc/hosts.allow: Could not connect to
localhost on port 8140

puppet is 0.22.1
puppetmaster is 0.23.2-1

the linux puppet is 0.23.2-1

Why does it try to contact localhost???

Thanks,
Ohad

Try ''$servername'' instead of ''$server''. 
I''m not sure where the
''$server'' is coming from.
