Hi all,
I''ve got two classes. One installs and configures the web server
lighttpd,
and the other installs and configures Mailman.
Both these classes need to copy configuration files into the same directory,
but I can only get lighttpd''s files copied in, Mailman''s seem
to be ignored.
In my node''s configuration file I have "include mailman", so
the fact that
lighttpd''s config files are copied means the inheritance is working,
which
means it''s something to do with the way I''m appending the
additional source
line in the mailman class definition.
What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks,
Adam.
class lighttpd {
file {
"/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled":
source =>
"puppet:///files/lighttpd/$hostname/",
recurse => true,
;
"/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled/10-accesslog.conf":
ensure => symlink,
target =>
"../conf-available/10-accesslog.conf",
;
}
package { "lighttpd": ensure => present }
}
class mailman inherits lighttpd {
file {
"/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py":
source =>
"puppet:///files/mailman/mm_cfg.py",
owner => "root",
group => "root",
mode => 0644,
;
}
File["/etc/lighttpd/conf-enabled"] {
source +> "puppet:///files/mailman/lighttpd/",
recurse => true,
require => Package["lighttpd"],
}
package { "mailman":
ensure => present,
# Don''t install until lighttpd is available or it will
# pull in Apache
require => Package["lighttpd"]
}
}

For example, the first path contains 10-main.conf and the second path contains 20-mailman.conf. Both these should be copied into the destination path so that when lighttpd runs, it sees all these files in the same folder and uses them all to read its configuration.
