Hi All,
I''m trying to write some plugins that should only be sync''d if
they''re for a specific platform. For example, in our environment
we''re supporting Solaris, Ubuntu, Fedora, CentOS and Mac OS X.
We''ve developed some OS X plugins and some Solaris plugins but
we''ve noticed that our Linux hosts have imported our OS X plugins and
now throw errors each time the agent is started
Aug 20 17:30:53 hostname puppet-agent[29934]:
(/File[/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/type/sysctl.rb]/ensure) defined content as
''{md5}0ba25754548630344738a7959fea2bb8''
Aug 20 17:30:53 hostname puppet-agent[29934]:
(/File[/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/x_policy]/ensure) created
Aug 20 17:30:53 hostname puppet-agent[29934]:
(/File[/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/x_policy/x_mcx.rb]/ensure) defined
content as ''{md5}5ea505d684d7c4b401950927e1680d04''
Aug 20 17:30:53 hostname puppet-agent[29934]: Could not load downloaded file
/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/mac_console_users.rb: no such file to load --
osx/cocoa
Aug 20 17:30:53 hostname puppet-agent[29934]: Could not load fact file
/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter/mac_console_users.rb: no such file to load --
osx/cocoa
Am I missing something? Is there a way to stop this from happening?

What types of plugins are you developing? The best way to deal with this is to deactivate the provider or fact on systems that don''t support the behavior. -Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Yes, the confine system should work well for this situation. -Jeff On Mon, Aug 20, 2012 at 6:54 PM, James A.
