Hi, I finally found why ralsh was failing on my systems; Puppet was installed as a gem and ralsh couldn''t find it. I added the preamble from puppetd and it seems to work fine now: ---8<--- snip ---8<--- 65c65,75 < require ''puppet'' --- > > require ''rubygems'' > version = "> 0" > if ARGV.size > 0 &&

Hi, I'm trying to install rimage on a Mac OS X 10.4 machine. I followed the advice in previous R-help threads and got over the hurdles of having the header files in the right places, among other things.

Hi Puppet users, I occasionally see this error message in my logfiles, and was wondering what it could possibly mean. I found no mention of it in the wiki or list archives, and so I turn to you. Could not run Puppet::Network::Client::Master: undefined method `parentof?'' for nil:NilClass It appears in the log files at the end of a configuration run, like this: Oct 17 20:13:30

Hello, I am installing Puppet Enterprise agent (puppet-enterprise-1.2.1- solaris-10-sparc) on a Solaris 10 64bit SPARC system.

Hi I''m trying puppet for the first time and attempting to get it working in Amazon EC2 with Ubuntu 10.04 using the default puppet 0.25.4-2ubuntu4, I''ve read the ''Pulling Strings'' book and tried following various tutorials found on the net to set up it but each time I get as far as signing the certificate before getting this error.... info: Caching certificate

We are getting this frustrating error on all of our servers after restarting the puppet server. Can''t seem to get rid of it no matter what. The following pops up in /var/log/messages after trying to start puppetd: Jun 8 10:59:04 svn001 puppetd[92558]: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run Jun 8 10:59:18 svn001 puppetd[92597]: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: undefined

I''d like to keep the desired and current states of a machine regarding it''s configuration. Sometimes a chain of administrative commands is needed to get a special thing (re)configured on a machine, e.g. reconfig of a suncluster. This cannot be done with puppet in an easy way. In the majority of cases, these commands change appropriate files, which reflect the current

I''m in the process of migrating from Rails 2 with rspec 1 to Rails 3 with rspec 2, the process has been going pretty well, however, today I came across an issue that I wanted to share. I have a controller that sends out an email through a mailer. Rails 2 code: CurriculumCommentMailer.deliver_comment_update(@curriculum_comment, "created") Rails 3 code:

Hi all I started researching on puppet and decided I''ll try it out on Vmware Workstation using Ubuntu 10.04. So I''m trying to do the simplest puppet install pattern as outlined in http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Simplest_Puppet_Install_Pattern. For now, I''m trying to test puppetd and puppetmasterd on the same machine. I start puppetmaster and

There''s a problem installing puppet on Solaris 10 -- in this situation, we aren''t really doing anything with puppet there.

I updated to 0.22.3-1 from the dlutter repo (CentOS 4.4) and I''m still having trouble adding new nodes as others saw from the previous version, though I believe the error is different now. The procedure I used was: <client> /etc/init.d/puppet once -v <server> /usr/sbin/puppetca --sign nodename <client> /etc/init.d/puppet once -v This used to work for new nodes, now I

Hi, While puppet creates its own directories for internal stuff (puppetca, state, etc.), there''s a fair bit of latitude given to where things like manifests and uploaded files live. I didn''t get much guidance from the docs when I first set things up so I mostly poked at things until the worked. Take a look at the following and let me know if this looks reasonable; if so, it

Hi, I also met an error in crontabs: Could not prefetch "NilClass"rovider crontab: undefined method `each'' for nil:NilClass this is on freeBSD. 0.22.4 was working fine on the very same host.

Hi! This may have been answered somewhere before, but my searches turned up nothing. I am developing a Rails app that generally works, but just generated a new controller ("list" controller), did not add anything, and when I go to http://localhost:3000/list/ I receive an error. It appears that the page was properly generated, but somewhere preparing the result raised this
