Not sure if this is another issue cropping up with 0.24.1 but I''m getting the following: info: Loading fact raid /etc/puppet/facts/location.rb:5: private method `split'' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `call'' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `value'' from

I use a simple yaml file and and an external nodes script to express each of my nodes. What I''m trying to do is make sure that all individual data is expressed at the node level and not have anything in classes or modules that isn''t generic and shared. the example below works really well but I can''t express it via my external nodes, I have to bury it in a class (or

so I have this sudo module that I''ve been working on: class auth::sudo { package { sudo: ensure => installed } file { sudo_config: name => "/tmp/sudoers", owner => "root", group => "root", mode => 0440, notify => Exec["sudoers-syntax"], source => [

I turned on reporting the other day and I''m seeing alot of these when puppet runs. Especially during times when nothing is going on (middle of the night etc) Tue Dec 11 12:34:48 -0500 2007 //base/puppet/puppet::client/Service[puppet]/ensure (notice): ensure changed ''stopped'' to ''running'' It''s also quite odd that puppet when it runs it thinks

I''m almost afraid to ask because this probably sticks out like a sore thumb on the wiki somewhere, and I''m just not seeing it. But I have a bunch of files with the same owner/mode. Is there a way to somehow collapse these, so that all I repeat is the file name? Example: file { "/opt/test/1": owner => "jtan", group =>

So I have the following: define nagios::service ( $nagios_template = ''service-template'', $host_name = $fqdn, $service_groups = '''', $contact_groups = $default_contact_group, $max_check_attempts = 3, $dependency = false, $dependent_host = $fqdn, $dependent_service = '''', $check_command = '''' ) {

I have a cluster of 20 or so machines. On many of the nodes, the puppetd process take up a ton of resident memory (> 400MB RES in top, > 500GB VIRT in top) after running for a while (> 1 week). The only thread I found on this was titled "memory leak?" and last updated on 06-Dec-2007. The question on that tread was whether or not the memory was buffered memory. I

Hi all, I''m struggling with the following: I have a defined type wrapped in a class: class myclass { define mytype(bla) { file { "blabla": .... } exec { "blablabla": ... } } } And I access the defined type in my other class by doing this: class otherclass { include myclass myclass::mytype { "alb": ... } # and here I want to

I''m working with a pretty simple config at the moment to track down some issues I''m seeing with custom facts and plugins. I have factsync = true (default locations) and I have a simple fact in /var/lib/puppet/facts/ (actually it''s David''s netmask plugin) my pp file I''m testing with contains only: notice "netmask: ${netmask}" puppet -v

So before I start I should be upfront and disclose that I''m using external_nodes, so in keeping with that I''m trying as hard as possible to keep all the actually ''specific'' data in the node config files (currently just yaml)and have nothing specific in modules especially. So I have this definition: (credit goes to DavidS for the inspiration) define git::repo (

I''m seeing these in my logs on my puppetmaster: puppetmasterd[4111]: Could not store configs: SQLite3::SQLException: SQL logic error or missing database: DELETE FROM fact_values WHERE "id" = 8 currently this is 0.24.0 relect from some previously collected resource that wasn''t cleaned up? upgrade issue? nothing to worry about? that''s the only

Hi, I wanted to know whats the ideal way to install puppet client ie the below packages on Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike) system -- 2.4.20-8smp I get the dependencies issue with the below(bcso they are for RHEL4 which is 2.6 kernel). What would be an ideal way, where can I get the tar source of the compatible version of puppet/facter/ruby for Redhat 9

I was playing around with the generate() function and was wondering if anyone was making us of it. The current way I''m attempting to use it is to determine what the homedir of a given user is. I have: --- $homedir = generate("/bin/sh", "-c", "grep ^${name} /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f6") --- which returns what I expect it to return except that it preserves the

Hi all, I attempted to add an EL5.1 client to our puppet server (EL5), and after signing the client cert, got the error "Certificates were not trusted: hostname not match with the server certificate" I found the mailing list discussion and the relevant page: http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/RubySSL-2007-006 As far as I can tell, my puppermaster''s cert CN matches

so here I am trying to track down why one of my execs isn''t working properly and I notice in the wiki[1]the option on_failure for logoutput. Turns out it does''t work (in 0.23.0) err: Parameter logoutput failed: Invalid ''logoutput'' value "on_failure". Valid values are true, false, debug, info, notice, warning, err, alert, emerg, crit. err: Could not

Hello, I have a file which varies depending on which OS/version it''s running. I tried to make a nested source parameter like this, but it didn''t work: source => $operatingsystem ? { Debian => "puppet://myserver.com/files/os/debian/etc/ssh/sshd_config", Gentoo => "puppet://myserver.com/files/os/gentoo/etc/ssh/sshd_config", RedHat =>

Hi all, It was brought to my attention that the front page lists 0.23.3 as the stable release, but that no such release exists. I could have sworn I released this a few weeks ago, but now I can find no evidence of that. I''m going to publish it from the latest commit in the 0.23.x branch as soon as possible (probably in about 12 hours), so if anyone wants to get that last-minute

Hello, I was wondering if there is a way to parse individual manifest files as part of a pre-commit hook in subversion. I am looking for something like puppetmasterd --parseonly, but that will work on individual files. This way I can reject a commit if it does not pass. Any ideas? TIA

Hi, I''m using the ''backup'' parameter in file resources to backup to a central filebucket on the puppetmaster. How do I restore a backup? I couldn''t find anything in the wiki, but saw some docs by running ''filebucket --help''. It says to restore a backed up file, you need to know the md5sum. Unfortunately, AFAIK the only place this
