Hello gals & guys,
I''m trying to make a simple site.pp manifest to verify that manifests
are applied to my nodes. I plan to start from that to develop more
complex scripts.
However I''m having trouble writing a manifest that initial manifest
and prove it works.
The problem with the example at
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/InstallationGuide
# /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
file { "/etc/sudoers":
owner => root, group => root, mode => 440
}
is that there are no transaction changes to be made.
I tried to check that a certain package is installed, but again
nothing happens:
# /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
# taken from http://www.linuxjournal.com/article/10046
package {
ntp:
ensure => installed
}
Should I try some exec:
# /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
exec { "touchtest":
command => "/bin/touch /home/bogdanbiv/touchtest"
}
In other words, how do I say "Hello world!" in my puppet show?

Triple posting? that''s some feat... Sorry for this. Please reply in my older thread. Lame excuse: Google showed the previous topic as "deleted" and I reposted it in a new message, thinking I did something wrong... such as my session expired. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Puppet does nothing but make sure your system looks as you''ve described
it.
So to test puppet, make the system different than what you''ve
described. I
wouldn''t touch the sudoers file for obvious reason :)
But try uninstalling the ntp package, then run puppet again. It should
install the package. Your exec resource is probably a good idea, but I
would just do a file resourcet. All you need to do is make sure that file
doesn''t exist on the system before running puppet.
file {"/tmp/foobar.txt":
content => "Hello World",
ensure => present;
}

Carl, I hope you don''t mind if I quote your reply in my message in the other thread.
