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

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 have a strange problem this nigth that i cannot solve, perhaps you can help me understand what is wrong. I have a file type that upload a directory into my servers. Inside this uploaded directory i create subdirectory and files on my own (directly on the target host). The problem is that when puppet comes back to the directory it spills out this error: err:

Hello, i wanted to know if we can use exported ressrouces to do things like this: - for all nodes tagged as xxx create on the node yyy a file which content is a template where we can have each hostname , or create one file per nodes matching exemple /etc/hosts.allow sshd: host1 sshd: host2 ... or /etc/backuppc/host1 /etc/backuppc/host2 ... from the docs it seems i can collect only ALL

Hello, The more complicated my puppet scripts gets, the more ordering issue i meet. Here is a simple thing: I use a default backup policy for the nodes in my backup classe and then, in the node i try to override the defined default but even if they are done one after the other i got an error to say that the override is triggered before the default: include backup

Hello there, I wanted to know if there is a way to change the log verbosity for a node. I wanted to be able to shutdown logs for most host but be able to re-enable them when i meet problems on one server. It seems to me that the log verbosity can only be changed on each type. This would lead to a rather complex setting of loglevel in EACH type followed by a variable defined in the node. I

Hello, I use a type i just written that install apache basicaly it is httpd and you provide the version (it is just a wrapper to the packets system) .

Hello puppet users, I know this is not really a puppet thing but i wanted to know what tools do you use for server provisionning ? I have to build quite a lot of servers for a prject and i need to instal them. Of course puppet take care of the configuration but i wondered if some of you use things like FAI . It seems that i could use puppet to script FAI to install machines. What do you

I dont know if i am missleaded but it seems to me that the cron type does not accept names with a ''.'' in it ? I tried to add a cron with a name cron1-$domainename and it does not accept it.
