Why doesn''t puppet autoload modules with capitals in the class names?

I have this: class foo::foobar ($version) { } which is called like this: class facility::sanjose inherits facility::common { class { foo::foobar: version => "1.3.13" } } puppet complains with this on the client: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find parent resource type ''facility::sanjose'' of type hostclass in

My understanding was that at the beginning of each run the puppetmaster imports all modules so that any includes at the top level are applied directly. However, I am not so sure anymore. I''ve been tracing how this works and it seems like modules are included more lazily. In other words, when able_to_import is called seems like when the magic happens, rather than up front when the run

How do I debug errors with external nodes? When my client connects, the following appears on the puppetmaster when running in debug mode. It''s not feasible to always be running the pupeptmaster in debug mode. debug: importing ''/etc/puppet/modules/yum/manifests/client.pp'' in environment production info: Automatically imported yum::client from yum/client into production

I''ve installed the puppet labs lvm module. After fixing the missing "}" at line 20 in init.pp (really?!?!), I''m getting this:'' err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid resource type physical_volume at /truth/sauce/env/prod/modules/role/manifests/common.pp:43

Hey folks, I am using puppet for some OpenStack deployments and on a new node things look pretty good right until after the successful reception of a cert from the puppet master. I get this error: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: $concat_basedir not defined. Try running again with pluginsync enabled at

I downloaded the latest version of puppet 2.6.0 today, and still can''t get parameterised classes to work. At least, I think it''s 2.6.0... the version number in the RPM spec file says 0.25.5. This simple example: /etc/puppet/manifests/nodes/pax/name01.pax.xxx.com.pp: node ''name01.pax.xxx.com'' { class { amodule::afunc: version => "1.0" } }

Is the host_aliases parameter to sshkey new in 0.25?

Hi, I try to serve a file file { "/root/test3.txt": ensure => file, source => "puppet:///yum/test.txt", } On the puppetmaster this files look like this #$ ls -n test.txt -rw-r--r-- 1 502 301 4 8 Nov 16:25 test.txt Finally, here is my question: What ownership may I expect on the resulting file ? Actually this is the result for me: #$ ls -l

Hi, are there any good ways of scripting an inventory of managed resources on all nodes? I''ve found the inventory script by R.I.Pienaar ( http://www.devco.net/archives/2010/02/26/what_does_puppet_manage_on_a_node-2.php) which does what I want but only locally on each client. Is there any native way of syncing the client_yaml data centrally or any other way of doing this? I need a

Can I use a template in site.pp? I have a templates directory in my /etc/puppet directory which has my template, but i get this error message: Wed Dec 19 09:19:23 -0800 2012 Puppet (err): Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find template ''server.xml.erb'' at /etc/puppet/manifests/tcuser.pp:52 on node

Hello ! I''m trying to implement a Nagios solution based on David Schmitt''s Complete Config. But I the following error when running puppetd -t - v : notice: Starting catalog run err: //Node[monitoring]/nagios::target/Nagios::Host[]/File[/conf.d/ _host.cfg]/ensure: change from absent to present failed: Could not set present on ensure: No such file or directory - /conf.d/

I''ve gone over the documentation several times now and I can''t figure out how to ''apply'' a manifest to a client. The client does have a signed certificate but the only thing in the /etc/puppet folder on the client is an ssl directory. I have a manifest that works fine on the puppet ''master'' I have added the client into

All, I have --confdir=/etc/puppet/common in my /etc/init.d/puppetmaster and /etc/init.d/puppet files, vardir set to /var/lib/puppet in /etc/puppet/common/puppet.conf, and yet, every time I run puppetca it creates /etc/puppet/ssl. Anyone know why? Doug. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email

Hi folks, when I try to do something like: define railsproject($name, $uid, $gid, $userpass, $sqlpass) { mysql_database { "$name_staging": ensure => present } mysql_database { "$name_production": ensure => present} ....more stuff... } I get: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Duplicate definition: Mysql_database[] is already

Hi, I have create the following module: modules/foo `-- manifests |-- definitions | `-- line.pp `-- init.pp $ cat modules/foo/manifests/init.pp import "definitions/*.pp" $ cat modules/foo/manifests/definitions/line.pp define myline($file, $line, $ensure = ''present'') { .... } I try to use the definition in a class: class testfile { file {

So, this has always puzzled me a bit. By convention, init.pp contains one class, named the same as the module. However, what is the convention when the module may have multiple external access points? Say you have a module called ''syslog'' which provides both a client and a server class. I typically have used syslog::server and syslog::client. I''ve ended up using this

Hi, I''ve just installed Puppet on two CentOS 5.5 servers, "S" for "A". "A" does not have the ntp package installed nor of course ntp running. The Puppet server is started on "S" with the ntp class from this tutorial: http://bitfieldconsulting.com/puppet-tutorial (included below) however when I run the agent on "A" it don''t

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello, I read and find a way (well, there seems to be several equal implementations) to collect the ssh keys of machines. However they all give only the choice to choose between the key formats. But is there a way to collect both keys of a machine, the rsa _and_ the dss key (and maybe the rsa1 too)? I didn''t find a way to solve this as
