hi all, we maintain about 30 puppet managed nodes. the version of the clients is 0.23.0 and 0.23.1. the master is 0.23.0. today we installed a new CentOS 5 node with David Lutterkort''s puppet 0.23.2 rpm. this host is a reinstall of an old FC4 on new hardware. we are getting this error on 0.23.2, never happened before: | Could not retrieve configuration: | Failed to parse template

Hello there, Since the update with ruby all my puppet function is dead (well known issue with the cert) . There has been some discutions on the dev list on how to patch this for future versions. I have read the list and wondered how we can solve the issue while waiting for the .24. I am in beta test of the .23.x version but on my production system i wanted to find a way to solve this now

There was a discussion a while ago about adding inheritance to definitions. There is a need for a way to specialize parameters while allowing passing other options. This comes up with remotefile where it would be nice to have a default server location but not specify all the parameters (and their defaults) in the definition. Was there a change to the syntax? Is there a way to accomplish this?

I have a machine with two swap partitions (sda2 and sda8). Both will have none as mount point. When I try to use puppet (using mount type) for managing fstab I get problems because "name" in both instances (i.e. mount path) will be "none". How should I fix this within puppet? Regards Halvard Moe

Hi Tomas, Thanks for your answer. Indeed, I checked and my R-3.4.1 installed from the ubuntu repository use 'libopenblasp-r0.2.18.so' while my R-3.3.2 that I did compiled on my machine use 'libRblas.so' which explain the difference of behavior. I will use RhpcBLASctl to avoid issue when combining matrix product and other multi-threading package. Maybe this point regarding

Hello, I use some define in classes like class foo { define bar() {} } before in .22.4 i had require => Bar[''mybar''] on object and it worked. Now i have : err: Could not apply complete configuration: Could not retrieve dependency ''Shorewall-realize[shorewall.conf]'' at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/shorewall.pp: for exemple. Do anyone knwo why it

Hi Ista, Maybe a little comment in the 'matmult {base}' doc page or on the 'options {base}' in the field 'matprod' would be useful to remind users to be cautious regarding BLAS multi-threading? I understand why this is a BLAS related issue and not directly an R related issue. Nonetheless, my concern was for non-advanced R users, that may don't even know what BLAS

With both puppet-0.23.0 and 0.23.1 if I setup just the configuration file puppet.conf, none of the puppetd options seem to get parsed. I first noticed this when monit failed to start/stop services due to the lack of a pid file being generated (and mine is not in one of the usual places). I''m sure that something like the patch attached but I bet it breaks other assumptions :-) Cheers,

I just built new puppet rpm''s for Fedora (puppet-0.22.1-2) that fix the lockdir problem that many of you have encountered. The packages should show up on a mirror near you very soon. Unfortunately, I am having trouble getting to my buildsystem that I use for the RHEL versions of the RPM; I made the source rpm available on my people page[1] If you need the RPM for RHEL, you need to

Hi all, Jennifer Davis from BayLISA has done us the service of already posting the presentation from this past Wednesday night: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8202036065161263530&hl=en http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=7740462681265962824&hl=en It''s about 2 hours total, and I can''t promise it''s any kind of amazing presentation, but I do a

Hi, I also met an error in crontabs: Could not prefetch "NilClass"rovider crontab: undefined method `each'' for nil:NilClass this is on freeBSD. 0.22.4 was working fine on the very same host. Any idea ? The crontab binary is there but it seems puppet does not find the right provider in this version ? -- Cordialement, Ghislain

I''ve been using puppet for a while but I just recently decided to start using it to manage crontabs. It works great but puppet is reporting (and being very noisy about it) every time it does a run even when there is nothing in the actual crontab to change. I think this is happening because I''m setting defaults for the Cron type, which I should be able to do. Right? eg: Cron {

i got a little idea there, should not puppet use environement LANG=C when managing facts or packages etc... ? i have LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8 and puppet choke on quite a few facts (erors messages with uname for exemple: Pour en savoir davantage, faites: « uname --help ». ) and also with packages updates : /usr/bin/apt-cache policy mysql-client-4.1 => err:

hello, i wondered if it would not be interesting to have some filters function in puppet like filter_integer(), filter_prelregex, filter_text, filter_email or such so we can validate and make our defines a little more foolproof :) i particulary see filter_regex as usefull in quite a lot of exec that manipulates text files. What do you think about this ? -- Cordialement, Ghislain

Hello and sorry to disturb. I'm trying to plot the confidence intervals for the fixed effects of a lme. I want to obtain graphically, if it is possible, a bar with Estimate, upper and lower CI for each level of the factors. I know how to do for a lm model but for a lme one, I tried with plot(intervals(...)) and plot(ci(...)) from the gmodels package but it doesn't work well. Thanks

sorry to come with such a silly request but i have a code: shorewall-zone { "$name": SHTYPE => ''ipv4'', PARENT => "$PARENT" } and it bring a syntax error : debug: importing

I forgot to mention this in my announcement yesterday. Puppet facts are no longer downcased in the language, and string comparisons now default to being case-insensitive. Where your operating system might previously have been ''solaris'' or ''debian'', it is now ''Solaris'' or ''Debian''. However, you can still do comparisons
