Hi all, Peter Abrahamsen has duplicated all of the documentation and cookbook pages in Puppet''s Trac page: https://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/DocumentationStart Please let me or Peter know if there are any problems. -- A motion to adjourn is always in order. --Robert Heinlein --------------------------------------------------------------------- Luke

I''ve set the Trac sites up to use mod_python now (as I should have in the first place), so you can now get all trac sites at https:// reductivelabs.com/trac/$name, where $name is the project name, e.g., puppet. It should be a good bit faster now. The old locations will work indefinitely, but I''ve changed all (I hope) of the links to point to this new location. Please

Well, tracd suddenly decided to stop serving requests today. As a result, we''ve re-enabled trac under mod_python, which unfortunately means you can expect more stack traces. We''ll continue working on resurrecting tracd, but please bear with us until we get it fixed. -- I am not young enough to know everything. -- Oscar Wilde

Hi all, As requested by at least one person (and because I''d been thinking about it and figured it would be a good idea), I''ve just made it simple to use external node sources with Puppet. If you set ''external_nodes'' to a command (the default is ''none''), then Puppet will call that command and use it to configure nodes. The output of

I''m trying to learn how to set up Puppet and am coming across a number of dead links in the wiki. Specifically: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/ReferenceIndex, referred to from http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet, and http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/MasterConfigLayout referred to from http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/DocumentationStart#AdditionalD ocumentation Are

I''ve converted all of the inline docs over to restructured text, and I''ve got them all up on trac: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/FunctionReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ReportReference http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/ConfigurationReference Please let me know if you find any

I''ve added an account manager plugin to Trac, so people should now be able to create and pseudo-manage their own Trac accounts. This should make it easier to submit bugs as yourself, and anyone should be able to log in and modify info on the wiki. However, trac seems to deal weirdly with credential caching, so I don''t seem to be able to log in as a test user. Please let

Hi all, For those few of you in London and interested in an ad-hoc meetup, I''m planning on being at the Cheshire Cheese[1] at 6pm local time. I don''t expect to last long, being painfully jet lagged and all, but I''ll be there at least long enough for dinner and a pint or two. Note, also, that I''m giving a talk at GLLUG[2] tomorrow night. 1 -

I''ve published the tarballs and whatever bad packages my publishing system knows how to create; look for more official debs, sun packages, and rpms in the near future, hopefully. Note that this is mostly a bug-fix release, and I expect it to be a pretty painless upgrade for most everyeone (but please, test before upgrading). Here''s the changelog: Compile times now

I seem to be getting the following error from the wiki, in both Safari and Firefox. Is something changing something, or is it offline every day for a time or something? Jesse Oops… Trac detected an internal error: If you think this really should work and you can reproduce it, you should consider reporting this problem to the Trac team. Go to http://trac.edgewall.org/ and create a new

Hi all, I''ve finally released 0.23.0 (only two days late!). You can get it from the usual locations (although the packagers will take a little while to package it up, I assume): https://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/InstallationGuide You can read the full changelog[1], which is pretty long, but here''s a summary of the things you either want or should look out for:

Every time I go to the puppet website, I get the following when I try to click on any of the links, ie: http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/SimplestPuppetInstallRecipe Thanks! ____________________________________________________________________________________ Got a little couch potato?

Hi all, I''ve been thinking about this for a while, and I think I''ve finally come up with the "right" way to do this. There''s a lot of data in Puppet that''d be useful as documentation but is not currently exposed all that well, especially on the command- line. Just a few examples: - Which providers for which types are functional on the current

Hi all, I''m very happy to see how quickly the Puppet community is growing and how pleasant and helpful everyone is. It seems like people are starting to handle a lot of the questions on the email lists and IRC, which is great because it means I can focus more on development and planning. There are a few areas that don''t seem to be meeting the community needs, though,

Hi all, I''ve been trying to monitor the traffic on the web site recently, and it seems like we''ve got a couple of Japanese Puppet users I didn''t know about. I''ve seen articles about Puppet on both madoro.org[1] and mizzy.org[2] recently. I haven''t looked into translations of Puppet''s documentation much, but this might be a good place

I''ve tried replying twice in the past few days to a request for more information on a bug I filed.

Hi, I''m experimenting with using Mongrel to serve XMLRPC, and I''m having trouble passing the XMLRPC errors on to the client. In my webrick implementation, I just raise the XMLRPC error and the client receives it and can handle it like a normal exception. With Mongrel, when I raise the error, Mongrel catches it and just closes the client connection, which means the

Hi all, I released 0.23.2 last night; you can get it from the usual places [1]. Apparently Matt has already uploaded debs. This is a bug-fix release, and I''m hoping it will be stable enough to supplant 0.22.4. It looks pretty likely that I''ll be putting out another release very soon, though, because a coworker of Matt''s has figured out a way to use HTTP
