I seem to be missing something. I''ve copied the files from this module https://github.com/torrancew/puppet-cron into my modulepath $ puppet master --configprint modulepath /etc/puppet/modules:/usr/share/puppet/modules so it looks like this: /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/ /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/ /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/daily.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/hourly.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/init.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/install.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/job.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/monthly.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/manifests/weekly.pp /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/templates/ /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/templates/job.erb AFAICT from the docs I should be able to do just this in my own manifests include daily but all I get is Could not find class daily What am I doing wrong? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

[Puppet Users] Re: how to install a module from github
cron::daily is actually a defined resource type, so you need to declare
that resource as opposed to including a class. If you have multiple nodes
that you would like to include the same cron job on, you can write your own
class that declares a cron resources and include that.
It''s hard to say without knowing what you''re trying to do, but
something
like this might be a good place to start:
class crontest {
cron::daily {"test_cron_job":
minute => ''0,15,30,45'',
hour => ''0,12'',
command => ''/usr/bin/derp --foo'';
}
}

[Puppet Users] Re: how to install a module from github
Oh, right. You need to rename /etc/puppet/modules/cron-job/ to cron/ The outermost directory needs to match the module name which needs to be "cron". http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/modules_fundamentals.html On Monday, October 29, 2012 4:31:53 PM UTC-7, Kevin G. wrote:> > On Monday, October 29, 2012 4:19:11 PM UTC-7, Jenner La Fave wrote: >> >> cron::daily is actually a defined resource type, so you need to declare >> that resource as opposed to including a class.

I don''t know how that could be any clearer, but it''s still hard to see. Well, I gave torrancew on github a pull request to add a hint to his README.mk, maybe that''ll help the next guy with my problem.
