Hello... What is the last version of puppet that will work with ruby version 1.6.8? I have a few RHEL 3 machines I would like to run puppetd (only the client, not puppetmaster). They will be updated to RHEL 5 fairly soon, so I don''t want to spend a lot of time trying to get a more recent version of ruby on them. thanks /me buys Luke a beer for all his help :) I now have

Hello... I am trying to switch to mongrel from webrick to get rid of the . puppetmaster is FreeBSD 6.2 with ruby, puppet, and mongrel all from ports (latest as of this morning). I get "Server is not a class". --verbose, --debug do not spit out any useful info. puppet-0.22.4 ruby-1.8.6.111_1,1 ruby18-bdb46-0.6.2 ruby18-gems-0.9.4 rubygem-daemons-1.0.8 rubygem-fastthread-1.0

I''m thinking about how to set up the processes for Production puppet runs now. Being ultra-conservative here, we''d like to see what would happen before pressing the red button. I can run in noop mode, and everything is evaluated but nothing is done. A YAML report magically appears on the Puppetmaster which my script parses and spits out something the management can read

hi,all I want set up a puppet HA structure. but if the puppetd can set more than one server address ,the work will be simple :D if one puppetmaster have error, the client can auto try the next. I think I can use the heartbeat or dns to do this same thing,but not so good. so I want know the puppetd can direct set in the configure file ? if not,will be add this option? -- Huang

Hello... Is this a bug or by design? I''m using exported resources to generate /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts. I changed the example from the docs to this: @@sshkey { "$fqdn,$hostname,$ipaddress": type => rsa, key => $sshrsakey, } so that I would get one line per host in the ssh_know_hosts file. What happened was that on each run several (all?)

I''m trying to get puppetrun to work, without luck so far. I have my puppetmaster and clients working fine with the clients polling the master. Now I want to be able to force an update. Using version 0.23.2 On the client I set listen=true and created the namespaceauth.conf file. Restarted puppetd and it appears fine. On the master I run puppetrun as root and get root@plane:/etc/puppet#

Hi, I have a number of puppets talking to 1 puppetmaster. Everything was working fine until suddenly this week the puppets are revolting. Whenever I try to run ''puppetd -v'' I see a lot of messages like: Certificates were not trusted: hostname was not match I''m sure I did not make any changes to DNS lately and I didn''t upgrade puppet on any of the machines

Hi When using puppetrun to trigger machines to get and apply their configuration, it will only trigger the machine when executing puppetrun for the second time: puppetmaster # puppetrun --host puppetclient puppetclient log: -- snip Apr 13 08:19:49 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08 puppetd[20208]: puppetmaster(172.16.34.12) triggered run Apr 13 08:20:08

Hello... I wanted to be able to startup an EC2 instance with one command and have a fully functioning server without having to shell into each new instance and configure the bits to allow puppet to finish the configuration. Here are some notes I came up with for bootstrapping an ec2 instance with puppet using Ubuntu 10.04. I left out a lot of things about creating and running custom AIM

At long last, 0.24.0 has been released. Look for your friendly packagers to package it up in the near future, but in the meantime you can download it: http://reductivelabs.com/downloads/puppet/puppet-0.24.0.tgz I''ll be walking the different release sites (RubyForge et al) and posting it there, too. Look for a related announcement later today on changes in development practices

I''m using puppet 0.24.7-4. I have a situation where I have some very long running puppet runs in order to do upgrades (removing applications from load balancers gracefully, et cetera). My puppet runs triggered via puppetrun are finishing successfully: Jun 8 20:31:29 puppetd[10178]: Finished catalog run in 345.18 seconds Puppetrun itself is timing out: err: Connection timeout calling

I was wondering how to trigger a configration run remotely. Is this possible? Looking through the docs, I see mention that puppet can listen on port 8139, but I don''t see that this is the case on my servers. Can someone please enlighten me as to the proper method of doing this, if it can indeed be done? Thanks!

Hello all, I''m thinking about a configuration class that, amongst other things execs out to a ''dangerous'' configuration script. I''d like to make this a noop by default, so the operator has to try a bit harder to invoke it. So I thought about doing something like: class blah { exec { danger: noop => true, tag => hitme, command

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

Just started a "pilot" puppet server for real after messing around in VMs for the past week or so... I used the 0.24.0 since it was available, and on the test run, got this: err: Could not prefetch package provider ''yum'': Execution of ''/usr/bin/python /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/package/yumhelper.py'' returned 512: /usr/bin/python:

Hi. I''d like to use exception handling in my custom facts. For example, in plain Ruby: begin buildno = '''' bcrelease = open("/etc/BCrelease") while (line = bcrelease.gets) line = line.chomp buildno = $1 if line =~ /^Build:\s+(\d+)/ end bcrelease.close print "#{buildno}\n" rescue print "No

Dear all I''ve gotten into the habit of including SVN headers in my templates, etc so it is easy to see where the file installed into /etc/puppet/ came from. Furthermore, we use svn cp to create release branches. Therefore, you''ll see something like this: # $Id: dumpadm.conf 1239 2007-10-23 16:04:06Z sa_dewha $ # $URL:
