I have multiple instances of tomcat running on a single system. They
are installed to /opt/tomcat/$x/$y/$version.
I wanted to symlink each instance''s version back to a tomcat-current
directory, like this...
/opt/tomcat/$x/$y/tomcat-current -> /opt/tomcat/$x/$y/tomcat-6.0.20-1.tf
So, I had a definition like this...
define tomcat::create_inst($software, $version = "current",
$server_port, $connector_port) {
#
# Create a symlink.
#
"/opt/tomcat/$name/$software/tomcat-current":
require => Package["apache-tomcat-$name-$software"],
ensure =>
"/opt/tomcat/$name/$software/$tomcat_version";
}
which is called from the node definition like this....
tomcat::create_inst {
tfel0:
software => "starterkit",
server_port => 7119,
connector_port => 7118;
}
However, puppet complains (but of course!)...
Nov 7 16:15:05 gumby puppetd[17245]: Could not retrieve catalog:
Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError:
Duplicate definition:
File[/opt/tomcat/tfel0/starterkit/tomcat-current] is already defined
in file /etc/puppe
t/modules/tomcat/manifests/init.pp at line 88; cannot redefine at
/etc/puppet/modules/tomcat/manifests/init.pp:88 on node
gumby.fr.xxx.com
Why? I''m only calling the definition once! ARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!

Yes, effect of cut and paste. Assume the file {} declaration is there.

Hi Doug,
I had a chance to look at the code, and..
three things that I see here, are
define tomcat::create_inst($software, $version = "current",
$server_port,
$connector_port) {
#1. version is set to "current" by default.
1. "/opt/tomcat/${name}/${software}/tomcat-current":
2. require =>
Package["apache-tomcat-${name}-${software}"],
3. ensure =>
"/opt/tomcat/${name}/${software}/${tomcat_version}";
4.
5. #
6. # Make sure that the base Tomcat directory for this instance
exists.
7. #
8. "/opt/tomcat/${name}/${software}/tomcat-${version}":
#2. These two file resource will have the same name, if $version=current
tomcat::create_inst {
tfel0:
#version => $tomcat_version,
#3 If you do not set this param when calling the definition, then it will
get set to "current" by default, which creates duplicate resources.
Hope this is helpful,
Dan

Err, well that''s not gonna work!
I need to both make sure that the base directory exists AND the
symlink to it exists. Other than defining a file resource that ensures
the base directory exists and another file resource to create the
symlink, how else could this be done?
In fact, they aren''t the same resource. One is a file resource called
"/opt/tomcat/${name}/${software}/tomcat-${version}" and the other is a
LINK to a file resource called
"/opt/tomcat/${name}/${software}/tomcat-${version}".
The error messages are pretty confusing. They point to the symlink
line and tell me that''s where the duplicate definition is, not where
the other file resource is.
Doug.

One of my defines looks like this. In the class resin::files and sites::files, I have hardcoded every possible site and environment that could be passed in (you''ll know you forgot this part if on a puppet run you get "Failed to realize virtual resource blah"). This is far from ideal, and I''m open to ways to do this that wouldn''t require me to do that :). The actual use case is that for each site (which is a distinct website), there are multiple JVM''s that make various components of that site (env_alias, which is really misnamed), We can also vertically scale JVM''s on the same machine, in different runtime directories (the instance variable). For example, we can have /apps/runtime/site_A/main/resin/host1_main_1, /apps/runtime/site_A/main/resin/host1_main_2, and /apps/runtime/site_A/jive/resin/host1_jive_1 all on the same host. These are completely unrelated (to puppet) other than the fact that they''re all resin instances running on the same box. So for each one, I need to make sure that /apps/runtime/site_A, /apps/runtime/site_A/[main, jive], and /apps/runtime/site_A/[main, jive]/resin all exist (/apps and /apps/runtime are taken care of in resin::base. which as you see is included). All of that is handled via virtual resources, defined in sites::files and resin::files like so: class resin::files { @file { "/apps/runtime/gq/main/resin": owner => cnp, group => cnp-admin, mode => 0755, require => File["/apps/runtime/gq/main"], ensure => directory; <much snipped.....> And here''s the complete define resin::instance. define resin::instance( $site_alias, $env_alias, $instance ="1", $host_alias, $resin_ver, $java_ver, $watchdog_port = "6700" ) { include resin::base include resin::files include "resin::${resin_ver}" include sites::files include "java::${java_ver}" $instance_name="${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}" $runtime_dir "/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}" file { "/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}": owner => cnp, group => cnp-admin, #mode => 0755, require => File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias"], source => "/media/CNT/common/puppet/resin3-runtime", recurse => true, ignore => ".svn", replace => no; "/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}/conf": owner => cnp, group => cnp-admin, require => File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}"], ensure => "/media/CNT/$site_alias/apps/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/conf"; } # no class names are allowed with dots, so do a lame workaround case $resin_ver { "resin318": { $real_resin_ver = "resin-pro-3.1.8" } "resin316": { $real_resin_ver = "resin-pro-3.1.6" } } case $java_ver { "java1607": { $real_java_ver = "jdk1.6.0_07" } } file { "/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}/bin/setenv.sh": owner => cnp, group => cnp-admin, require => File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin/${host_alias}_${env_alias}_${instance}"], mode => 0755, content => template("resin/setenv.sh.erb"); } # these two are defined in sites::files realize File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias"] realize File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias"] # this is defined in resin::files above realize File["/apps/runtime/$site_alias/$env_alias/resin"] } --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
