A little while back I asked how to make puppet not report on a resource.. and was shown the loglevel metaparam: Quoting bellman@nsc.liu.se: There is a metaparameter called ''loglevel''. If you set that to something lower than "notice" (i.e. either "info" or "debug"), then Puppet won''t report that it applied the resource... So I made my

I tried to use a Puppet variable named "$memory" and access it from a template, like this: $memory = 4711 file { "/tmp/test.txt": content => inline_template("memory = <%= memory %>\n"); } One would think that my file would contain "memory = 4711" after that, but instead the memory variable seems to hold a

Inspired by the recent thread titled "Array input of dirs, ensuring their existence" I thought I''d write up the problem I''m running into. I was chatting on irc about it, I don''t think puppet has a clean solution. Like the other poster, I''m defining an object that takes an array. In my case, I''m defining gpg keystore, which can contain a

I''ve got this: file { ''/opt/sugarsync/tomcat/tomcat-home/current'': ensure => "tomcat-$config[''tomcat_version_server'']"; where $config[''tomcat_version_server''] was set with extlookup (the yaml one), by loading: --- tomcat_config: tomcat_version_server: 6.0.20-1 tomcat_version_libs: 1.0-1

Hi, I want to use a file resource to write a facts.yaml file for Mcollective. For some reason it won''t provide a valid yaml format if I dump my scope to hash and convert to_yaml. file { "/etc/mcollective/facts.yaml" : owner => root, group => root, mode => 400, loglevel => debug, #content => inline_template("<%= scope.to_hash.reject {

Hi, I''m using Puppet 3.2.1 and heavily relying on hiera data bindings. I have the following situation: class software ( $my_content = undef, ) { file { ''/path/to/file'': content => $software::my_content, } } in hieradata/software.yaml (hiera.yaml seems ok): software::my_content: template(''mymodule/myfile.erb'') With this configuration I

I have this in nodes.pp $puppetmaster_fqdn = generate("/usr/bin/facter","fqdn") and this in a template http://<%= puppetmaster_fqdn %>:8080 When puppet runs, this is the result: http://puppet.home :8080 Anybody any clue to whats causing this?

Hi, I am having an issue trying to use the inline_template function to return an array. This is what I do: $array = inline_template ("<%= a=[''a1'',''b2'',''c3'']; a %>") notify {"array: ${array}":} And that works, showing the typical comma-less string: notice: /Stage[main]//Notify[array: a1b2c3]/message: defined

So I discovered yesterday that if puppet changes the gid of a group it doesn''t go through the file system and update them with the new correct gid (at least this was the case on RHEL5 and client puppet v2.6.16 and puppetmaster 2.7.12). Now I thought that it might be possible to have puppet execute something like find /home/ -group <old_gid> | xargs chgrp groupname. However

PuppetDB, a component of the Puppet Data Library, is a centralized storage daemon for auto-generated data. This initial release of PuppetDB targets the storage of catalogs and facts: * It’s a drop-in, 100% compatible replacement for storeconfigs * It’s a drop-in, 100% compatible replacement for inventory service * It hooks into your Puppet infrastructure using Puppet’s pre-existing

I am having an issue with templates that I cant quite figure out why it is having an issue. I am using ruby dsl to read a template from a database and it keeps having problems with anything other than <%= var %> type definitions. I even went as far cutting and pasting from the puppet online documentation just to see if it were maybe something I goofed. I pasted below the tested template

Hi, I am new to Ruby ERB and inline_template. Can anyone spot what''s wrong with this inline_template? $moddedContent = inline_template("<%= puts gets(nil).gsub(/one two three/,\"\") /tmp/blah %>") exec { "/bin/echo ''${moddedContent}'' > /tmp/blah" : } When I try to apply it, I

I'm experimenting with a 2.0 setup, using the sieve plugin for 2.0 from mercurial. Without sieve, everything seems to work fine. Once I put in a .dovecot.sieve file, though, nothing gets delivered, with the only hint of what's going wrong being this mess in syslog: Jul 7 13:18:00 bellman dovecot: lda(perry): Panic: file index-transaction.c: line 70 (index_transaction_init): assertion

Hi. I have the following facts available: # facter | grep oper operatingsystem => CentOS operatingsystemrelease => 6.2 Now, if I wish to use conditionals on these facts, I have to do it like this: case $operatingsystem {} case $::operatingsystemrelease {} I''m puzzled as to why can''t I just use $operatingsystemrelease, and what do these two semicolons mean? Thank

I need to do something like this node foo { $iface = pcn0 ... } # the template <%= network_<%= iface %> %>/<% netmask_<%= iface %> %> The idea being that a file would be built on the client holding the value of pcn0''s network/netmask Of course, I''m trying to avoid hard coding the interface name in order to keep my code portable. Thanks in advance

All- I''m using puppet 2.7.14. I''ve reviewed http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/modules_fundamentals.html but it doesn''t seem to cover what I''m attempting. Consider a module layout like this: $ tree mymodule mymodule |-- Modulefile |-- README |-- manifests | |-- init.pp | |-- special_type | | `-- prereqs.pp | `-- special_type.pp

Just started a rollout of centos 6.x across our Puppet deployment (100-odd servers). what fact would people suggest I use to distinguish 5.x from 6.x (quite a lot of subsystems are different between major releases)? lsb* facts don''t seem to be present on centos 6 - is this an EPEL bug, or have they just been removed in Facter?

I''m running Puppet 2.7.1 on the master as well as the agent and just received a new error which doesn''t actually reference a module or a file, so I''m somewhat stuck as to how to debug this. Any pointers? The error is err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Could not intern from pson: Could not convert from pson: Could not find relationship target

Hi, I have stupid situation that I may workaround but I think there is an elegant way to deal with. Still I need the community help. In some class X I have: $control = { dev => { id => 7, name => ''GG'' }, prod => { id => 1, name => ''Info'' } } In some other class, which I apply to a node I have defined file from a
