Hi, When I try to specify a file I want copied in place, like: configfile { "/etc/init.d/puppet": source => "config/apps/puppet/puppet" } and has a require on that later on: exec { "/usr/sbin/update-rc.d puppet defaults": require => "/etc/init.d/puppet" } puppetd throws an error: err: Could not find type

Hi all I''ve stumbled upon something that I consider a bug: Node variables can''t have dashes in them: node blah { $allow-from = "127.0.0.1" } err: Could not parse; using old configuration: Could not match ''- from'' at /home/mercurial/repositories/manifests/nodes/nodes.pp:8 I''m using the variable to create a template-based config file.

Hi all I''m fighting right now with the functionality of overriding variables. I''ve made a base node with some variables: node base { $country = "dk" $dv = "sarge" } And I''d like to override some of them in subnode definitions: node server01 inherits base { $dv = "etch" } Is this possible, or do I have to wrap the variables in a

Hi, I''m banging my head against the usage of variables i defines. Fx. I have this defined to easily create new systemusers: define systemuser($home = $home, $shell = "/bin/bash") { group { $name: ensure => present } user { $name: ensure => present, gid => $name, home => $home, shell =>

Hi From the documentation I can''t see if I can define the following schedule: I want a certain command to be run once a day, monday-friday on a certain time of the day.

Hi I''m wondering if it''s possible to define some defaults for the package type. What I want is that package install/updates only happens at certain times of the day. I could do: class shorewall { package { "shorewall": ensure => latest, schedule => maintenance } } for every package I want to manage. But that means I have to type

Hi All, After trying several times to fix this problem, I give up. I can''t seem to upgrade puppet/puppetmaster to 0.24.1. I''ve just downgraded to 0.23.2 on the puppetmaster, as it was the last working version for me. I''ve tried both upgrading the server first and the client first and both. But when upgrading only the server, none of my clients can get a

Hi all, I''ve got a problem when using the Apache2 recipe https:// reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/DebianApache2Recipe. Puppet is enabling modules and sites on every run, which in turn triggers a reload of Apache. I''ve figured out, that it must be the unless line in the exec statement that''s causing the problem: unless => "/bin/sh -c

Hi, I''m trying to use several sources to pick from in a remotefile statement: remotefile { "/etc/sudoers": mode => 0440, source => [ "config/apps/sudo/sudoers.${host}", "config/apps/sudo/sudoers" ], sourceselect => first } But it doesn''t seem to work. I get an error like this: "File source

Hi all Just discovered that running puppetmasterd --mkusers creates the user and group puppet, but it also changes roots group to puppet...?? That must be a bug, right...? -- Med venlig hilsen Juri Rischel Jensen Fab:IT ApS Vesterbrogade 50 DK-1620 København Tlf: 70 202 407 / Fax: 33 313 640 www.fab-it.dk / juri@fab-it.dk

Hi, As RijilV pointed out in http://mail.madstop.com/pipermail/puppet- users/2006-October/000541.html there may be af bug in the import code of 0.20.0: I noticed the same thing about schedules as he has, and I bumped into one more: Type defaults set in a file that gets imported by site.pp yanks a similar error. Moving the code into site.pp removes the error message. -- Med venlig

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

Hi all, I''m fighting with an error message right now, that I don''t understand: puppetmasterd[16269]: Could not write report for steinbeck.tnr.dk at /var/lib/puppet/reports/steinbeck.tnr.dk/200801311728.yaml: Too many open files But an output from lsof states that there is only ~5500 files open - not reaching any max I know of.

Hi, I''d like to be able to create certain admin users on certain machines, and when I saw the new Resources feature, I thought I could use that. But I can''t get it to work. This is what it looks like: <snip> class admin { define adminuser { @user { $name: ensure => present, group => adm } file { "/home/$name": ensure =>

Hi I''m anxious to get puppet into production, and although I''d prefer installing puppet as a .deb package (as most of the servers in our shop runs Debian), I think I''ll try to get some of my not-so- important servers into my test setup by installing puppet with the .tgz files. Upon the first installation I realize that puppetd and puppetmasterd is copied to

Hi Puppeteers! I''ve been using puppet for a little over a half year, and I''m very pleased with it. Until recently, I couldn''t get reporting to work, but after finding the culprit, it works just fine. Every day Puppet reports lines like the following: Tue Jul 31 04:37:49 +0200 2007 //debian_base_sarge/

Hi all Shouldn''t it be possible to access definitions from a super class in a subclass?

Hello! I''m trying to use pre-commit SVN hook for checking puppet syntax. For it I try to use some scripts from this thread: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/50ff2eb268f982da?pli=1 But when I try some of the scripts I see the common problem, expression like this: # puppet --parseonly --ignoreimport file.pp produces no output, but "file.pp" has a
