Hi! I''m new to puppet and just testing it out. I''m running SLES11 and puppet 0.24.8 from opensuse repos. I''ve created a simple manifest to manage the large number of binary files – quite a possible scenario for e.g. managing repository of software packages. I see following messages coming into syslog: Jun 26 13:31:32 test0 puppetd[2286]: Finished catalog run in 22.81 seconds Jun 26 13:31:42 test0 puppetd[2286]: Starting catalog run Jun 26 13:32:05 test0 puppetd[2286]: Could not call fileserver.retrieve: #<NoMemoryError: failed to allocate memory> Jun 26 13:32:05 test0 puppetd[2286]: (//Node[default]/testmodule/File[/tmp/file00]/ensure) change from absent to file failed: Could not retrieve /testmodule/file00: failed to allocate memory at /etc/puppet/modules/testmodule/manifests/init.pp:8 Jun 26 13:32:05 test0 puppetd[2286]: Finished catalog run in 22.76 seconds The puppet client machine is a Xen VPS with 256Mb of RAM, file00 is of 10Mb size... Is that not enough for puppet? -- Best regards, Kirill Kuvaldin AltScale Ltd. www.altscale.com --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

It seems like the problem was caused by missing swap partition. Everything started worked just fine once I added swap.
