Puppet users - Jul 2010 - question about package provider on Solaris

Hello,

Here is how I am trying to make sure sudo is installed on my solaris boxes:

            package {''sudo'':
              ensure => ''installed'',
              provider => ''blastwave'',
              adminfile => ''/usr/local/etc/adminfile'',
            }

The package is installed, but every time puppetd executes, I get this:

	notice: //base_server/Package[sudo]/ensure: created

It seems like the package provider is not seeing that sudo is already
installed….
How can I fix that?

Both my puppetmaster and puppetd are 0.25.5

Thanks,

Don

Blastwave uses aliases for the "standard" sun formatted package names
as a convenience.  Try adding the parameter name => "CSWsudo", to
the
resource declaration which is the actual non-aliased name of the
blastwave sudo package if I remember correctly.

Yes, that worked great.  Thank you, Jeff!

I spoke too soon, this is not working for me.

Here is the error message I get:

err: //base_server/Package[sudo]/ensure: change from absent to present failed:
Execution of ''/opt/csw/bin/pkg-get -f install CSWsudo''
returned 1: ERROR: CSWsudo unrecognized
Perhaps you need to run pkg-get -U

And here is the revised source:

 package {''sudo'':
              name => ''CSWsudo'',
              ensure => ''installed'',
              provider => ''blastwave'',
              adminfile => ''/usr/local/etc/adminfile'',
            }

I''m having similar issues with Blastwave. It does not complain about
anything and even says that package was updated. Still after the
puppet run package is at the old rev.

package { "puppet":
                ensure   => latest,
                provider => "blastwave",
                require  => Package[["facter"
,"openssl_rt",
"readline", "zlib", "ggettext",
"libsunmath", "isaexec", "stl4"]],
}

package { ["facter" ,"openssl_rt", "readline",
"zlib", "ggettext",
"libsunmath", "isaexec", "stl4"]:
                ensure   => latest,
                provider => "blastwave",
                require  => Package["common"],
}

Looking at the provider, I believe blastwave provider is running the
command: pkg-get upgrade {package_name}. Please run with --debug, it should
indicate the OS command puppet to ensure latest. Try the command displayed
in debug output manually and see if it''s correct and whether it
performs an
upgrade.

Thanks,

Nan

It''s worth remembering Blastwave have abandoned pkg-get. They now
recommend pkgutil. There is a package util provider for puppet here:

http://garylaw.net/packages/pkgutil.rb

It works for me, YMMV. It also works if you use an opencsw rather than
blastwave repository. There''s at least one other replacement for the
blastwave provider kicking around I''ve seen, again, utilising pkgutil.

HTH

Yes it runs "/opt/csw/bin/pkg-get -f upgrade common"
First it was complaining about gpg missing, which I disabled in the
pkg-get.conf
Now it says :

/opt/csw/bin/pkg-get -f upgrade common

The "force" option in pkg-get does not always force an install (or
uninstall), instead, simply ploughs on without asking questions. If
the default behaviour of pkgadd or whatever underneath is to bail at
any point, pkg-get will also bail, it will not try and answer
questions for you in the affirmative.

I would expect pkgutil -y would do what you want, as this does try and
ensure things get installed and will try and answer some questions,
however, I''ve not tried in your circumstances. Use of pkg-get is now
deprecated by Blastwave and unpopular (but still supported) with
OpenCSW.

You could argue none of this is a problem with puppet per se, however,
I think puppet needs to move it''s Solaris Blastwave provider backend
to pkgutil.
