[Puppet Users] Problem creating user with Puppet
Hi,
(Since I am relatively new to Puppet, this might be some trivial problem)
I am trying to create a user with Puppet, using following code:
user { "clavis":
ensure => "present",
home => "/home/clavis",
name => "clavis",
shell => "/bin/bash",
managehome => true,
}
User is created properly, but home directory is not there, although I do
have managehome => true in config. Any idea what might cause the problem ?
Thanks in advance,
Dusan

[Puppet Users] Problem creating user with Puppet
Hi,
I am trying to create user on Ubuntu using this code:
user { "clavis":
ensure => "present",
home => "/home/clavis",
name => "clavis",
shell => "/bin/bash",
managehome => true,
groups => ''clavis'',
require => Group[''clavis'']
}
User is created properly, but home directory is not created, although I
explicitly set mamagehome to true. Any idea what might be the problem here ?
Thanks in advance,

Hi, That should work. Can you provide a bit more info? Versions of puppet and Ubuntu. Can you also provide the output from your run with --debug? Make sure the user is removed before you run again.

From the docs for `home`: "The home directory of the user. The directory must be created separately and is not currently checked for existence." `managehome` doesn''t ensure the creation of the home directory, I believe it just checks permissions.

Hi,
Thanks for responses. I added piece of code that will create home dir. Code
now looks like this:
file { "/home/clavis":
ensure => "directory",
owner => "clavis",
group => "clavis",
mode => 700,
require => [ User[clavis], Group[clavis] ],
}
user { "clavis":
ensure => "present",
home => "/home/clavis",
name => "clavis",
shell => "/bin/bash",
managehome => true,
groups => ''clavis'',
require => Group[''clavis'']
}
When I try to execute it, I see this error on client:
err: Failed to apply catalog: Could not find dependency Group[clavis] for
User[clavis] at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:25
If I understand it properly, it means it cannot create user because group
clavis do not exist. However, when I add line to add group:
file { "/home/clavis":
ensure => "directory",
owner => "clavis",
group => "clavis",
mode => 700,
require => [ User[clavis], Group[clavis] ],
}
group { ''clavis'':
ensure => "present",
}
user { "clavis":
ensure => "present",
home => "/home/clavis",
name => "clavis",
shell => "/bin/bash",
managehome => true,
groups => ''clavis'',
require => Group[''clavis'']
}
It tells me:
err: /Stage[main]//Node[puppetclient2]/User[clavis]/ensure: change from
absent to present failed: Could not create user clavis: Execution of
''/usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/clavis -s /bin/bash -G clavis -m
clavis''
returned 9: useradd: group clavis exists - if you want to add this user to
that group, use -g.
So what is proper way to add user, create it''s home dir, create
it''s group
and add it to group. Simply speaking, do the same what standard useradd
command would do ?
Thanks...
Best regards,
Dušan

managehome => true,
groups => ''clavis'',

(removed require => Group[''clavis''])
but it is still the same. here is error message:

I think you are confusing the user''s primary group with additional
groups
From http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#user :
gid:
The user’s primary group. Can be specified numerically or by name. Note that
users on Windows systems do not have a primary group; manage groups with the
groups attribute instead.
groups:
The groups to which the user belongs. The primary group should not be listed,
and groups should be identified by name rather than by GID. Multiple groups
should be specified as an array.
From http://www.computerhope.com/unix/useradd.htm :
-g initial_group
The group name or number of the user''s initial login group. The group
name must exist. A group number must refer to an already existing group. The
default group number is 1.
-G group,[,...]
A list of supplementary groups which the user is also a member of. Each group is
separated from the next by a comma, with no intervening whitespace. The groups
are subject to the same restrictions as the group given with the -g option. The
default is for the user to belong only to the initial group.

}
user { "clavis":
ensure => "present",
home => "/home/clavis",
name => "clavis",
shell => "/bin/bash",
managehome => true,
groups => ''clavis'',
}
(removed require => Group[''clavis''])
but it is still the same. here is error message:
notice: /Stage[main]//Node[puppetclient2]/Group[clavis]/ensure: created
err: /Stage[main]//Node[puppetclient2]/User[clavis]/ensure: change from absent
to present failed: Could not create user clavis: Execution of
''/usr/sbin/useradd -d /home/clavis -s /bin/bash -G clavis -m
clavis'' returned 9: useradd: group clavis exists - if you want to add
this user to that group, use -g.
Best regards,
Dušan
