Hy I m a new user in world puppet I have installed a packge test on a node "screen" without problem Now i want to try to uninstall it but without success. This is the file configuration this is my file init.pp package {"screen-4.0.3-16.el6": ensure=> "absent" } #package and purge its config files package {"screen-4.0.3-16.el6": ensure => "purged" } this is the path of my manifest /etc/puppet/modules/screen/manifests this is the command that I execute to remove package screen puppet agent --server=puppet.xxxx.xxxxI this is the answer Info: Retrieving plugin Info: Caching catalog for node.xx.xx.x Info: Applying configuration version ''1365406267'' Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.08 seconds Effectively screen is already installed Thank you in advance I m going mad Cheers -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

It would fail with a parse error if it tried to do. I think you have a misconception: installing or creating a module in your module path does not in itself cause any declarations in any of its manifests to be applied to client nodes. At a typical site, there are multiple kinds of nodes that must be configured differently, sometimes including even special one-offs. Puppet therefore has mechanisms for assigning specific resource declarations and collections of resource declarations to clients. It assigns only those declarations. Unless you configure it specially, the master starts with <puppet-path>/manifests/site.pp (not init.pp -- that''s for modules). Declarations in that file apply to all nodes, and it is typical (at least when starting with Puppet) to use node declarations to tell Puppet which declarations to apply to each particular client. For the time being, however you can define just a default node in which you declare the appropriate class from your ''screen'' module: node default { include ''screen'' } Puppet determines where to look for the manifest containing class ''screen''s definition based on the class name. Class definitions are usually assumed to be in files <classname>.pp in directories corresponding to their module and any intermediate namespaces. Classes that have the same name as the module in which they appear are special, however: they should be in files named init.pp in their module''s manifests directory. In your case that would be /etc/puppet/modules/screen/manifests/init.pp. That file should contain this: class screen { package { ''screen'': ensure => ''purged'' } } Note that the version and release codes are NOT part of the package name, and if putting them in happens to work in any given context then that is a happenstance on which you should not rely and from which you should not draw any conclusions. To ensure that a specific version/release of the package was installed, you would use the ''ensure'' parameter: "ensure => ''4.0.3-16.el6''". On the other hand, a lot of people don''t care exactly which version (ensure => ''installed'') or want the latest available version, whatever that happens to be (ensure => ''latest''). Note also that there can be only one declaration for package ''screen'' for any given node. Puppet does not allow multiple declarations for the same resource; this helps you ensure internal consistency of your manifests.

Now eureka I have uninstall screen with rpm and I have created the following I begun from screen installation again :))) /etc/puppet/modules/screen/manifests/init.pp class screen { package { ''screen'': ensure => ''present'' } } under this path I ve declared class /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp John I hope to understand what you are trying to say to me.... But where I can define which packet must have a node rather than another Example where can i set if node 1 can have screen an node 2 can have vim but not screen and node 3 apache and not vim?? perhups in node.pp ?? Thank you in advance and to Andy too #import ''nodes.pp'' $puppetserver = ''puppet.xxx.xxx.xxx.it'' node default { include ''screen'' include ''sudo'' } node ''lurtz.interno.regione.lazio.it'' { include screen } Il giorno lunedì 8 aprile 2013 10:46:40 UTC+2, Francesco ha scritto:> > Hy I m a new user in world puppet > I have installed a packge test on a node "screen" without problem > Now i want to try to uninstall it but without success.

I think it''s the easiest to understand and use, so by all means proceed that way until such time as it becomes too constraining (if it ever does). Node blocks may appear directly in site.pp, or in one or more files ''import''ed into site.pp. This is one of very few appropriate use cases for the ''import'' function; avoid using ''import'' for any other purpose. In particular, do not confuse it with the ''include'' function. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
