Hello, all. I am getting the following error on a couple of my puppet nodes when I run puppetd -v -o --no-daemonize --no-splay: err: Could not retrieve catalog: undefined method `-'' for #<XMLRPC::DateTime:0xb7c729e8> The error goes away if I add --ignorecache, but I''m not sure that''s quite the fix I''m hoping for. It will also go away if i remove my

I''m trying to run puppetmasterd the first time with --mkusers. It fails with the following error message: 001 # /usr/bin/puppetmasterd --mkusers Could not configure for running; got 1 failure(s) Adding --verbose and --debug does nothing to improve the output.

(I know more questions... :-)) I know the default for puppetd is to check puppetmasterd every half hour, but my question does each puppetd check at the same time? Or does it depend when puppetd is started or like a cronjob does it run at the 1/2 hour and hour mark? Is there some randomness to the times they run? My point is if they all run at the same time then if you have a large amount of

On the module organization wiki, we''re got the following statement: To control access to the files in modules, the fileserver configuration can contain an explicit declaration of a ``modules`` module:: ... however, I thought the fileserver couldn''t define module or any section that is in the module paths. Has anyone tried this? And if it doesn''t work, is there

I am looking into alternatives for the initial cert sign for new puppet clients. We will have non-sysadmins kickstarting new hosts, and I am trying to minimize the time they have to wait for a cert sign while maintaining at least a marginally sane level of security. My question is this: does the puppetmaster check that a new cert request for host A (csr with subject "cn=A.mydomain") is

I''ve just filed http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ticket/1182 with the aim of making it easier to add fact pickup from dmidecode in manufacturer.rb. As the ticket says, I think that the fact sections, keys and values shouldn''t be hardcoded in manufacturer.rb, but should be stored in a configuration file somewhere. This means that a given stable installation of Puppet can be

Hi, I found the zypper provider mentioned on this list in another thread, but it failes with the flowing error : Package[kvm]/ensure: change from 0.11.0-4.5.2 to true failed: Could not update: undefined method `zypper'' for #<Puppet::Type::Package::ProviderZypper:0x7fd1acf9e360> at Is the latest provider broken?

Hello I''m wondering if anyone has looked into adding pkgsrc package management as a provider for Package? We use Joyent accelerators (zones on OpenSolaris) for our many of our production services and about a year ago Joyent switched from Blastwave to pkgsrc for userland packages. pkgsrc catalog - http://pkgsrc.se/ pkgsrc guide - http://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/ joyent pkgsrc

Hi all Luke and I have been discussing the wiki and how its future development might pan out. As a result I thought I''d canvas people for feedback. Currently the wiki''s layout and structure is fairly ad hoc and it''s a mix of wiki mark-up and REStructured Text (RST). We''d like to make it more "manual" like or at least move a significant portion of

I was playing around with the generate() function and was wondering if anyone was making us of it. The current way I''m attempting to use it is to determine what the homedir of a given user is. I have: --- $homedir = generate("/bin/sh", "-c", "grep ^${name} /etc/passwd | cut -d: -f6") --- which returns what I expect it to return except that it preserves the

Our puppetmaster runs on a host with multiple interfaces connected to various private networks, with different hostnames for each IP. I''m trying to use $servername in modules to copy files over a private network, but this is always set to the public hostname of the server. That route is blocked by a firewall. Is there a way to use the server variable in puppet.conf in manifests?

All I am doing some testing and have a quick question. Do class and node names have to be unique? I define a node: node test { include test } and a class called test. When I run the test node and connect I don''t get an error but no configuration is applied to the node. Is this normal behaviour or a bug? If it''s normal behaviour should Puppet tell you about the
