similar to: purging exported resources

I have the following define... define puppet::module_dir { if $name { include puppet file { "${puppetdir}/modules/${name}": ensure => directory, mode => 0755, purge => true, recurse => true, } } } I call it like so: puppet::module_dir { "main" } puppet::module_dir

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

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

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''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

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 =>

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

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

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

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 (

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 have a little issue with purging. I use: file { [''/etc/shorewall/puppet'',''/etc/shorewall/puppet/rules'']: ensure => directory, mode => 0700, recurse => true, purge => true, } but purging does not work, i can do a touch

Hi, I''ve been using puppet for about a week and a half now, and it''s definitely making my life a lot easier. I''m using 0.24.1 and I''ve run into a small snag. I''m trying to write some code to make sure user home directories exist for users in LDAP. I''m trying to get their uid, gid and home directory from getent with something like: $uid =

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 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 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

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

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.

Is there a way to exec something on purge?

Hi all, I''ve noticed, that once using storeconfig, if the db (in my case mysql) is down than puppet wont start... is there a real reason for making puppet depend on the db?
