similar to: Custom Provider with multiple default targets

Hi .*, with the first puppet run on a freshly installed system all custom types and providers a synced. As you can see from the output for some reason puppet tries to load the providers before the types and therefore the custom provider loads throw an error. It looks like the load happens alphabetically ordered, such that providers are loaded before the types... Anyway the puppet run afterwards

I have written a custom package provider for the pkgutil utility on Solaris 10. Pkgutil replaces pkg-get which is not deprecated. All I did was modify the Blastwave provider to use pkgutil instead of pkg- get. I''ve tried two approaches to get the provider on to the client. First, I created a plugin. I created a module called package to contain the plugin. The only file in

Hi everybody, i''m a lucky Puppet user for a few weeks and i''m currently "blocked" for a "simple" thing. I try to use facter custom values deployed with pluginsync feature in one manifest.

Hi All As per my various other Posts, I''m writing a customer type and provider set for NetApp support..

As some before me on the group, I have a problem getting the Chocolatey provider to work on Windows. I downloaded it from Github and placed it in /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/chocolatey. (I am running Puppet Enterprise 2.7.19). On a Windows 8 client, I have a very simple manifest: class install_notepadplusplus { if $::osfamily == ''windows { $pkg =

It will

I''ve just noticed that Puppet is failing to automatically apply changes when running as a Red Hat service. Changes get applied with no problems or errors when I run Puppet manually with "puppetd --test" but fail with a "Could not apply complete configuration: Parsed Providers must define a default target" error in /var/log/messages when the service runs automatically

hi everyone, i''m trying to roll out an .exe file for the puppet package provider "windows". my manifest looks like this: $package_source = "http://puppet.local.domain/base_check_mk/windows/check-mk-agent-1.2.3i1.exe" $package_name = "Check_MK Agent 1.2.3i1" package { "$package_name": ensure => installed, provider =>

So I''m trying to get multiple environments to work with puppet 0.25.1 on ubuntu 8.04 and no matter what I do, puppet just completely ignores any environment setting. There''s really next to no information in terms of configuration on the multiple environments documentation page (http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMultipleEnvironments) other than saying that the

I''m running into a weird issue with a custom package provider for PEAR. I''m using the provider I found here<https://raw.github.com/gist/305778/13f46dea6eba07e38778d7159644b4210ebe7bbe/pear.rb>and the provider itself works fine. I''ve got it stored on the Puppet master under /etc/puppet/modules/common/lib/provider/package/pear.rb and the puppet.conf has pluginsync

Hi, I am puzzled. I installed exim-mysql on a freebsd machine without problem before but now this manifest creates an error: class exim::install { package { [ ''mail/exim-mysql'' ]: ensure => installed, provider => freebsd, source => ''http://<some_url>'', } } Here is the error: err: Could not prefetch package provider

I''m in the process of upgrading an existing installation from .24.x to 2.6. We seem to have a custom function that is throwing the error: "err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: private method `gsub'' called for #<Array:0x7fdcebf3bbf8> at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/apache-php.pp:72" Here is the function: """ #

Hi, I''m following http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PluginsInModules in order to use a custom fact. My modules looks like: # ls manifests/modules/network/ manifests plugins # ls manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb as is said in doc. Then: Turn on pluginsync and specify factpath, so that the facts

I''m having a heck of a time with this. Basically I want to write a custom function that returns a value to the file content type. Ex: file { /blah: content => do_stuff(option) } I looked at the wiki posting but just haven''t been able to figure out how to make this work. The first error that I get when I try to actually use ''return'' is: "return

I am trying to get a custom fact to sync. The fact is in a module. It will sync if I run puppet with "--pluginsync" but not otherwise. I have "pluginsync=true" in my puppet.conf. Shouldn''t the command line option and puppet.conf option have the same results? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, Using the LVM module/providers from the forge I want to create a logical volume at the maximum size and I cannot work out how to do this. physical_volume -> volume_group -> logical_volume -> filesystem -> mount All works fine but you have to hard code the size for the logical volume. Anyone know if this is possible ? Thanks Paul -- You received this message because you

*Note, I''m very green when it comes to ruby development.. I''ve created a couple of custom providers and types, both of which rely on a particular ruby gem in order to function. How should I go about ensuring the gem dependency on the puppet clients before puppet syncs the plugins (the broken ''require'' in the provider will cause puppet to exit during a run)? On

Hi, I need to use the output of a script to set the value of a variable. I understand the only way to do this is to use a custom Facter fact. However, this script will only run when (naturally) it''s been installed, which is something Puppet takes care of. Conf files, which I would very much like to be able to install as part of the same run depend on the variable being set. So, it
