I see in the changelog that: You now must specify an environment and you are required to specify the valid environments for your site. (#911) Does this mean that the puppetmaster has to be updated before clients work correctly? I ask because I''m testing out a client upgrade to 0.24.0 (server is still 0.23.2) and this is what I''m seeing: [~]% sudo /foo/bin/puppetd

After upgrading my puppetmaster server to 0.22.2 using David''s src RPM''s for RHEL4 rebuilt for x86_64 i am getting the following error when puppetd attempts a configuration run. Mon Mar 26 10:05:43 EST 2007 Puppet (err): Could not run Puppet::[1]Network::Client::Master: Invalid value ''nil'' for noop When puppetd is started the initial run is

Hi, I am trying to convince aptitude update to run only when a file changes in /etc/apt/sources.list.d: exec { <snip> "aptitude-update": command => "/usr/bin/aptitude update", subscribe => "$basedir/sources.list.d", refreshonly => true; } File { owner => ''root'', group =>

Hi all, My current conf splits 188 clients execution in one hour, and puppet runs as a cron job. My server (2cpu 2 GB RAM) runs with mongrel (with 8 puppetmasterd) and this conf works fine. We''d like puppet to run clients all at same time (force a change, i.e.), so we''re testing several things. (Previous conf do not support massive execution). First and most important, is

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.

Hi all, I need to write an aptitude provider for Debian. How should it differ from apt? Can I just s/apt/aptitude/g, or do I need to do something else? Any other weird behaviours I should look for or whatever? I''ll make it a subclass of apt (and since Deb seems to specify aptitude as the default now, maybe apt should subclass aptitude), so any dpkg answerfile work should work on

Hi all, I''ve been looking for a good example for how one would build a module, but I couldn''t really find something that I liked, so I went ahead and tried to do it myself. The result is this: a git module (see attachment). Please have a look and comment on it, before I add it to the wiki. I especially want comments on the setup of the module itself, not so much on the git

This has been a much-requested feature, and is now a reality (in svn trunk): There is a new option, --ignoreimport, that will (surprisingly) ignore import statements. This is really only useful when using -- parseonly in a commit hook, and note that you''ll have to add the option to --parseonly, none of the puppet executables will add it for you. You should be able to

Hi Puppet-Team, first thanks for this great configuration management tool ! My name is Matt and i am on creating a puppet plugin for openQRM. The basic framework is already existing and working well so far. Now, after having it working ok once i now ran into a problem that my puppet-clients do not get their configuration any more from the puppetmasterd. What i saw on the puppetmasterd logs is :

Hi, For the past week, I have been trying to figure out the best way to do package management with Puppet on an Ubuntu system. I have studied many solutons I found on the web, but none of them seem to do exactly what I want. Among other things, I have tried everything that is discussed here: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/af7349171a5821a4/db96b809c97f6006 but

Guys Compliments of the festive season to everyone. Ive looked at mcollective plugins from http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/mcollective-plugins/wiki And I tried / installed some of them. What im looking for is a method or really a mcollective plugin to ''aptitude safe-upgrade'' on my test VMs. Would anyone have a solution or method on how I can go about this. The only

Hi, I have been getting the below error for sometime now. Both master and client are using version 0.24.8. Output from /var/log/messages err: Could not call puppetmaster.getconfig: #<#<Class:0xb7b50a9c>: execution expired> err: Could not retrieve catalog: execution expired P.S- all of this was working absolutely fine and suddenly has started to misbehave.

I updated to 0.22.3-1 from the dlutter repo (CentOS 4.4) and I''m still having trouble adding new nodes as others saw from the previous version, though I believe the error is different now. The procedure I used was: <client> /etc/init.d/puppet once -v <server> /usr/sbin/puppetca --sign nodename <client> /etc/init.d/puppet once -v This used to work for new nodes, now I

Hi, I''ve inherited a puppet setup for automating php installation and extension management. We''re on Debian and we''ve encountered a strange issue that I''ve traced down back to puppet I think. I''ve stripped back the configuration and made the problem reproducible, logs and config pasted below. 1. php5-common, php5-memcache, and php5-mysql are all

How do I prevent the following: I have several web servers behind the load balancer, how do I make sure that when something changes and web servers need to be restarted that they are not all restarted at the same time but rather one by one. Is there a way to configure sequential push of some kind? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are

summary: updating R .deb's from recommended mirrors @ http://cran.r-project.org/mirrors.html has allowed me to keep my R version up-to-date for many months.

Hi, installing puppet at my first site was quite easy (not w/o problems, but still). At the second site, I''ve run into something more serious. First things first - I install puppetmaster on existing server, used to keep LDAP db (my puppetmaster DOES NOT use LDAP, it just tries to coexist on the same machine). The thing is, I need to puppet this baby, so I''m running into a

I''m using 0.24 with Webrick (in the process of migrating to 0.25 / passenger). Occasionally, the puppetmasterd becomes unavailable, and we see error messages along the lines of: Could not call puppetmaster.getconfig: #<Errno::ECONNRESET: Connection reset by peer> I believe the puppetmasterd does not completely die, so it is still in the process list. I''m wondering what
