[Puppet Users] Puppet trying to start service before package is installed
Hi,
This one is driving me crazy. Problem is Puppet try to start some
services (in this case zabbix-agent) before it is installed.
My puppet-master is Debian 5.05 with Puppet 2.6.0 (from squeeze).
Target system is FreeBSD 8.1 with Puppet 2.6.1 (from packages-8-
stable).
When I run puppet manually in debug-mode I get:
MASTER:
debug: Adding relationship from Package[zabbix-agent] to File[zabbix-
agent_conf] with ''before''
debug: Adding relationship from File[zabbix-agent_conf] to
Service[zabbix-agent] with ''before''
AGENT:
debug: Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderFreebsd: Executing ''/usr/sbin/
pkg_info''
debug: Service[zabbix-agent](provider=freebsd): Could not find
zabbix_agentd in /etc/rc.d
debug: Service[zabbix-agent](provider=freebsd): Could not find
zabbix_agentd in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
debug: Service[zabbix-agent](provider=freebsd): Could not find
zabbix_agentd.sh in /etc/rc.d
debug: Service[zabbix-agent](provider=freebsd): Could not find
zabbix_agentd.sh in /usr/local/etc/rc.d
err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find init
script for ''zabbix_agentd''
My modules init.pp-file looks like this (Debian-stuff is commented out
for troubleshooting):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
####################
### zabbix agent ###
####################
class zabbix-agent {
Package[''zabbix-agent''] ->
File[''zabbix-agent_conf''] ->
Service[''zabbix-agent'']
#######################
### Install package ###
#######################
package { zabbix-agent :
name => $operatingsystem ? {
freebsd => ''zabbix-agent'',
#debian => '''',
#default => '''',
},
alias => "zabbix-agent",
ensure => installed,
}
#######################
### Get config-file ###
#######################
file { ''zabbix-agent_conf'' :
path => $operatingsystem ? {
freebsd => "/usr/local/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf",
#debian => "/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf",
#default => "/usr/local/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf",
},
ensure => file,
checksum => md5,
owner => ''root'',
group => $operatingsystem ? {
freebsd => ''wheel'',
debian => ''root'',
default => ''wheel'',
},
mode => 644,
require => Package[''zabbix-agent''],
source => "puppet://10.10.10.10/modules/zabbix-agent/$hostname/
zabbix_agentd.conf",
}
#####################
### Start service ###
#####################
service { zabbix-agent :
name => $operatingsystem ? {
freebsd => ''zabbix_agentd'',
#debian => [""],
#default => [""],
},
require => Package[''zabbix-agent''],
ensure => running,
enable => true,
}
}
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Does anyone have a clue why it''s behaving this way?
Best regards,
Freddie

The provider might just be informing you that at startup the service isn''t there, and run after.> My modules init.pp-file looks like this (Debian-stuff is commented out > for troubleshooting): > ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- > #################### > ### zabbix agent ### > #################### > > class zabbix-agent { > Package[''zabbix-agent''] -> File[''zabbix-agent_conf''] -> > Service[''zabbix-agent''] > > ####################### > ### Install package ### > ####################### > package { zabbix-agent : > name => $operatingsystem ? { > freebsd => ''zabbix-agent'', > #debian => '''', > #default => '''', > }, > alias => "zabbix-agent", > ensure => installed, > } > > > ####################### > ### Get config-file ### > ####################### > file { ''zabbix-agent_conf'' : > path => $operatingsystem ? { > freebsd => "/usr/local/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf", > #debian => "/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf", > #default => "/usr/local/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf", > }, > ensure => file, > checksum => md5, > owner => ''root'', > group => $operatingsystem ? { > freebsd => ''wheel'', > debian => ''root'', > default => ''wheel'', > }, > mode => 644, > require => Package[''zabbix-agent''], > source => "puppet://10.10.10.10/modules/zabbix-agent/$hostname/ > zabbix_agentd.conf",Since you are a beginner, it might be useful to know that you can use "puppet:///modules/zabbix-agent/$hostname/", if you don''t already know that.> } > > ##################### > ### Start service ### > ##################### > service { zabbix-agent : > name => $operatingsystem ? { > freebsd => ''zabbix_agentd'', > #debian => [""], > #default => [""], > }, > require => Package[''zabbix-agent''], > ensure => running, > enable => true, > } > } >Readability suggestion: move your parameters outside the file to a zabbix-agent::params class. Take a look at the puppet labs apache module on puppet forge for an example. Good luck, ;) Silviu -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

[Puppet Users] Re: Puppet trying to start service before package is installed
Hi Freddie, I experienced something similar with the init service
provider (which the freebsd provider inherits). In some cases, the
puppet agent seems to attempt to locate the init script before it''s
been installed and throws the exception you''re seeing (''Could
not find
init script'') when it fails. So, it may be a resource ordering issue
but I was able to work around the problem explicitly specifying the
''hasstatus'' and ''status'' parameters.
So, something like:
service{ zabbix-agent :
name => "zabbix_agentd",
require => Package[''zabbix-agent''],
ensure => running,
hasstatus => true,
status => "/path/to/init/script status",
}
I had similar issues with ''enable'' so you might try removing
that
while you test.
