Good day,
After having lurked for a while I''ve decided to actually start using
puppet starting on my small home network. I''ve been following :
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/InstallationGuide
and :-
http://www.howtoforge.com/installing_puppet_on_ubuntu
to test puppet on 2 hosts, librarian running the puppetmasterd and
mortvm.
Unfortunately, I didn''t get very far; whilst trying to obtain a cert
for mortvm I''ve received the following errors :-
adrian@mort:~$ sudo puppetd --server librarian --waitforcert 60 --test
Could not autoload "/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/host/parsed.rb":

This is with the following packages (downloaded from debian sid) :-
ii facter 1.3.8-1 a library for retrieving facts
from operating systems
ii libopenssl-ruby 1.0.0+ruby1.8.2-1 OpenSSL interface for Ruby
ii libopenssl-ruby1.8 1.8.4-5ubuntu1.2 OpenSSL interface for Ruby 1.8
ii libshadow-ruby1.8 1.4.1-7 Interface of shadow password
for Ruby 1.8
ii libxmlrpc-ruby 1.8.2-1 XML-RPC support for Ruby
ii puppet 0.23.2-10 centralised configuration
management for networks
ii ruby 1.8.2-1 An interpreter of
object-oriented scripting language Ruby
ii ruby1.8 1.8.4-5ubuntu1.2 Interpreter of object-oriented
scripting language Ruby 1.8
I''ve just tested this on a Ubuntu feisty host and it doesn''t
give
this error so it would seem to indicate some problems with
(presumably newer versions of) puppet on Ubuntu edgy.
Can anyone else confirm (or deny) this before I report a bug.
Sincerely,
Adrian Phillips

It''s almost as if there''s two completely separate installations of Puppet fighting each other. Is this a clean Edgy install that''s just had the Puppet packages installed on top, or one that''s perhaps been experimented on before? Try running ''find / -name puppetd'' and ''find / -name methodhelper.rb'' and see if you get more than one result for either of those. Also, try hard-coding the path to puppetd (/usr/sbin/puppetd) when you''re running it on the command line and see if that fixes the problem (since it''s using the packaged files for the libraries). I''ve got Puppet running on Dapper and Edgy boxes, and I''ve also seen reports from others that it''s working on Edgy. PEBKAC seems the most likely option at this stage. - Matt -- "I''m tempted to try Gentoo, but then I learned that its installer is in Python, and, well, a base Python install on my system is something like fifty megabytes (for what? oh, right, we NEED four XML libraries, I forgot)." -- Dave Brown, ASR
