I''m trying to run puppet using the tarball and so far, I''ve been unsuccessful. The system I''m trying to run puppet on is running RHEL 5.3. Now first of all, this system does not have access to internet. Therefore I don''t have any access to any of the repositories from which I can download the rpms and its dependencies. So instead, I got the puppet, facter, ruby and openssl tarballs. I''ve installed them all individually. Now when I try to run puppetd, I get the following error: err: Could not create resources for managing Puppet''s files and directories in sections [:main, :agent, :ssl]: Could not autoload file: no such file to load -- zlib Could not prepare for execution: Could not autoload rest: no such file to load - zlib I get same errors for puppetmasterd too. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Instead of downloading tarballs, I recommend you download the needed RPMs manually, and install those. Although it''s more cumbersome than using yum, there are enormous advantages to installing software from packages (only) on systems that support a standard packaging mechanism. Not least of these is that you can be reasonably sure that you have installed all the dependencies for each package. For RHEL 5, look at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/repoview/ for a somewhat human-friendly view of the EPEL repository, or at http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/ for a plain index of that repository''s contents (which include Puppet). Change "i386" in those URLs to "x86_64" for 64-bit RHEL. Also, you should not need to go to a third-party repository for Ruby. There should be a suitable version on your RHEL install media.
