similar to: Anyone using storeconfigs with a DB other than sqlite?

Hi all, i'' m trying to configure puppet to use rails with postgresql. I'' m having troubles to make it work. Got no error when running puppetmasterd but nothing is being populated in the DB. Is anybody using puppet with postgres ? my config (in puppet.conf) [rails] dbadapter = postgresql dbname = mydb dbserver = localhost dbuser = user dbpassword = password

Hi there! I´m trying to get my PuppetmasterDB running. Problem is, though I´m not getting any errors from the puppetmaster there is nothing stored in the database, not even tables are created. I tried "puppetmasterd --dbmigrate", didn´t help either. rails.log is kinda empty too.. Thing is: it kinda works anyway, there is just nothing stored in the DB - exported a user on host A,

Here''s some happy-fun Perl to make your storeconfig/virtual resources day better. I probably should have written this in Ruby, but perl comes naturally :) #!/usr/bin/perl # # Perl DBI to remove all related entries from Puppet''s storeconfigs database. # Use when a host is removed from the Puppet network forcibly # Alternatives: run puppet on host to be removed with a blank

Hi guys, I''ve just checkout the puppetshow code, and I was looking for the setup.ppfile, but I cant find it anywhere.... anyone has an idea where should i look for it? (or what needs to be done?)

Hello, I just installed the latest version of puppet and puppetmaster on an up to date RHEL4 system. If I turn on ''storeconfigs'' on the puppetmaster server I get the following error: debug: Calling puppetmaster.getconfigerr: Could not retrieve configuration: Uncaught exception No such file to load -- sqlite3 in method puppetmaster.getconfig I have gems and rails installed

Hello, When I kick off SVN1992 with storeconfigs=yes, I get the following error: err: Could not store configs: SQLite3::SQLException: SQL logic error or missing database: INSERT INTO resources ("exported", "line", "title", "host_id", "restype", "source_file_id") VALUES(NULL, 23, ''svnpkgadd-emacs-nox-etc'', NULL, NULL,

Hi, I am developing an end user WWW-based front end for Rails for my system integrator and developer colleagues to use to easily view and search our Puppet configs via a Rails app. I set up the SQLite storage option on the server and the puppet tables are being populated in /var/puppet/state/, but foreign keys for everything except host_id in resources are not being set. Is this expected

Hello everybody, I have updated the puppetmaster from 0.22.4 to 0.23.0 (and today to 0.23.2). Although ''dbmigrate=true'' is turned on AND the puppetmaster is saying it migrates the databse at startup, this does not happen. When it should store configs, I get the error: Could not store configs: Mysql::Error: #42S02Table ''database.resource_tags''

Hi, is there a way to make sure a file is installed only if a certain package is installed on the client? e.g. I want to distribute the client key for NX via puppet. However I only want to install these files if package ''freenx'' is installed on the client. I tried adding ''require => package["freenx"]'' but then puppetd complains it

Hello all, I have what is certainly a stupid problem on my part. I have setup puppet in a test environment and it''s been working wonderfully. I am now in the process of moving this to our production systems and I have rebuilt our puppetmaster completely from scratch using the same modules/manifests, etc. from my test system. Unfortunately I am running into an issue with what I

Hi all, As I understand it, storeconfigs needs to be enabled on both the agent and the master to function ideally. I have a couple of questions: -> Can the various agents and the master safely share the same storeconfigs db (say, a postgresql server)? Is there any benefit to setting things up this way? -> Is there any benefit for an _agent_ to use an RDBMS vs sqlite for its

I''m trying to use a "case defined" statement to configure Munin to automatically create plugin links for packages that are defined by Puppet but the behaviour seems to be unpredictable. I have a similar setup for Samba which works, but the Postfix one doesn''t and I can''t see any difference between them. Can some explain to me how "case

For those of you out there using export/collect (which we really need to come up with a better name for...), can you test the current SVN code? I''m mostly wondering if the performance is any better. To use it, you''ll have to remove your current database, since the database schema is significantly changed. I''m getting what looks like an additional 25% reduction

I''ve just put it out; hopefully the packagers will get it in place soon. Here''s the changelog: Execs now autorequire the user they run as, as long as the user is specified by name. (#430) Files on the local machine but not on the remote server during a source copy are now purged if purge => true. (#594) Providers can now specify that some

I''m in the process of creating Puppet classes to install Munin via Yum on my RHEL4 hosts. Before Yum can be used as a provider, it obviously needs to be installed. I''ve tried requring the Yum package in the Munin classes but I still get an error about "Provider ''yum'' is not functional on this platform". Is there an easy way to require the yum class

I''ve just noticed that Puppet is failing to automatically apply changes when running as a Red Hat service. Changes get applied with no problems or errors when I run Puppet manually with "puppetd --test" but fail with a "Could not apply complete configuration: Parsed Providers must define a default target" error in /var/log/messages when the service runs automatically

Is there a recommended way to set $FACTERLIB so that Puppet will be able to access custom facts when running as a Red Hat service? If I export $FACTERLIB=/var/puppet/facts and then run Puppet manually I have no problems, but I''m not sure how I should be setting $FACTERLIB when Puppet is running automatically. Cheers, James

Hi, I think I''m having a similar problem to the user who raised this bug: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ticket/733 I''m running 0.23.2 with storeconfigs. I''ve got it working to the point where my clients'' facts are being populated in the database[*] but updates don''t seem to happen unless I restart puppetmasterd. For example: 1) I run my test

Hello all, How are you using the sshkey type? Are you using it to list hosts and keys in a class that nodes include in order to manage /etc/ssh/ssh_known_hosts or something else? How does any of this relate to the sshrsakey and sshdsakey facts on the host? I read some stuff about this on the Virtual Resources page but it''s too vague for my simple mind and I''d be reluctant to use

I''ve checked out the page on adding custom facts for Facter and I see that there are a number of ways to do this. Is there a preferred method of setting system-wide facts? In this case, I''d like to set a "Location" fact which represents the data centre a server is in. Cheers, James *********************************************************************************
