Ok, given the statement on the web page about unlesssystemuser under Resources ( http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/documentation/typedocs.html#resources), I assume that users can be purged. However, when I attempt to do this with resources { user: purge => true, noop => true } and what I get is: err: Found a bug: private method ''split'' called for nil:NilClass. Both my resources and user statements are conta...

Hello, I would like to know on what platforms Puppet runs. I cannot seem to find the information on Puppet''s web site. Bcfg2 has it on it''s front page :-) I know there are .debs and .rpms, but are, for instance, Solaris, FreeBSD and AIX supported? Thanks. -- Guillaume Pratte Recherche et développement Révolution Linux Toutes les opinions et les prises de position

...b-4.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm" } [snip other code] } On fedora core 5, the ³source² is ignored: yum is used to pull the package from the upstream repos listed in yum.conf I tried to fix this, by setting the provider to rpm (details from here http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/documentation/typedocs.html#package ), which I¹m hoping is a little more obedient: class thttpd { package { thttpd: version => "2.25b-4.2", provider => rpm, source => "http://dag.wieers.com/packages/thttpd/thttpd-2.25b-4.2.el4.rf.i386.rpm" } [snip] } But thi...

...that it is now easy to document the different backends available to you. Puppet will automatically collect all of the docs for your providers and stick them in the autogenerated docs page. For instance, check out the package docs: http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/documentation/ typedocs.html#package I''m also adding what the providers know about required binaries, so that should make things a bit clearer. Not all of the providers are as clear as they could be on what binaries are required, and binaries will sometimes be unqualified when the docs are generated, but...

This was a fun one to track down... I was trying to use the append_if_no_such_line script from the wiki and it was working fine EXCEPT when I threw a notify at it. The notify appears to completely ignore both unless and onlyif within the exec for some reason. If I put the same test in the actual command line, it works fine. Example: unless => "/bin/grep -Fqe ''$line''

How can I express the following in puppet? $http_conf = "/etc/http/conf/httpd.conf" $vhosts_conf = "/etc/http/conf/vhosts.conf" @files = ("$httpd_conf", "$vhosts_conf") foreach f (@files) { file { "$f": owner => root, group => root, mode => 664, source => "puppet://$server/apache/$f", }

Howdy, Found out about this project while looking for via ONLamp''s FreeBSD build system article. After finding cfengine a tad arcane, this project seems like a good fit for my setup. I''m still at the tinkering phase, but I envision this thing bootstrapping and maintaining several FreeBSD installs which have different CPU''s and packages. The Good News:

I''m not sure if this has been posted previously, but I couldn''t find any information on it. I added a cron job via the cron type and it installed properly. Next, I removed the cron type from the manifest. The result was that, while the entry was no longer in the yaml file, the cron entry was not removed! Is this a bug, or the way that it is supposed to function? Thank you,

Hi all, Today I came across something that I consider a bug. Would like to hear your opinions. Facts: - Using 0.22.1 from Debian Unstable on a Debian Testing machine - Recipes work on other machines The recipe in question is: # Keep home-dirs in sync file { "/home/tim": recurse => true, source =>

Hi all, [Please CC me in replies, I am not subscribed to this list.] First of all, thanks for puppet! It is a very nice tool and I''m in the (slow) process of using it to manage my new Xen-based virtual server farm with it. Most of the "simple" tasks worked well so far, and I may be able to add a few recipies to the Wiki when I find time to do so. However, is there any way

Greetings - I''ve just started testing Puppet and have a couple of questions: 1. Is there a way to dynamically change a configuraion file that is sent to nodes? For example, I want to modify /etc/hosts to have the hostname and ip address set dynamically - the hosts file shoule look like: 12.34.56.78 node1.example.com 22.35.66.99 server1.example.com But I don''t want to

Hi, in an attempt to simplify my configuration, and from a suggestion on IRC, I was thinking of using multiple values for file { source => [] }. Was just currious if anyone had any comments on this. Basically, I setup my file-server to use: <snip> [private] path /var/lib/puppet/files/private/%H allow * [shared] path /var/lib/puppet/files/shared allow *

Hi all, Just reading through Luke''s interview on computerworld.com.au and I came across this statement: "This topic comes up on the list periodically, however, and most people are very tight-lipped about what they''re doing with Puppet." Being the chattermouth that I am, I''d like to take this opportunity to tell you all what we''re (that is, my

I finally got my cfengine configs all objectified and separated into service-based configurations. But there are still many things that cfe can''t or won''t do very well, so I''m looking for a replacement. What about puppet? I am looking for something that I can use to manage services and applications, not hosts and files. It seems like puppet may have inherited some of
