My issue may be related to this bug: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13858 "Custom types in environments require loading into master''s libdir" However, now I''m not so sure, This was working previously with a given client. However, after trying on a fresh client, it''s failing with: err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find a

Hi, I just wanted to check a few things. I have a build server which is used to run the CI server. It also doubles up as my puppetmaster. Would it be possible to have a puppet client talk to a puppetmaster on the same machine? Cheers, Tom -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Hello, i've found an old thread [1] where it was stated that a whole mailbox can be made read-only only setting the according permissions on the filesystem side. [1] http://www.mailinglistarchive.com/html/dovecot at dovecot.org/2011-12/msg00300.html i'd like to check if it's still the only option we have with dovecot v2.0.18 .

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

So, I''ve been doing something like this for applications that have a client and server component... node base_node { include syslog_ng::client }} node app_node inherits base_node { } node syslog_server inherits base_node { include syslog_ng::server } ... because I want the client portion, syslog-ng in this case to be installed on everything. However, the server node also has a

All, For those that are using external nodes (as local files) and multiple environments, where do you put the external node files? Ie, do you put them down in the environment itself /etc/puppet/env/env1/manifests/extdata/nodes /etc/puppet/env/env.../manifests/extdata/nodes /etc/puppet/env/envN/manifests/extdata/nodes OR, up above the environments? /etc/puppet/manifests/extdata/nodes Which

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

This is pretty ugly. I''m using puppet to install Oracle, ie an exec{} wrapped around: /u01/oracle_extract/linux.x64_11gR2_database/database/runInstaller -silent -responseFile /etc/oracle_response.rsp The problem is that the damn installer backgrounds itself and returns control to the shell. I tried putting the above command in a script, followed by a wait command, but that

Here we go with puppet 0.25 certificate problems again. I had a system where puppet was running fine. I reinstalled it. Running puppet on the client causes this: "Could not request certificate: Retrieved certificate does not match private key; please remove certificate from server and regenerate it with the current key". Fine... so I run ''puppetca --clean

All, I was looking at the new feature of puppet to manage switches, and it says: "A current limitation is that it isn’t possible to have 2 switches with the same interface name" Does this mean that if one switch has an interface called FastEthernet 0/1, that puppet can''t manage a second switch with an interface called FastEthernet 0/1? If so, that probably means you can

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

So, I noticed that when adding a service to puppet, puppet is running a chkconfig <service>. However, as far as I can tell, puppet should be running a chkconfig --add <service>, otherwise the symlinks don''t get created from the service in /etc/rc.d/rc6.d back to the service in /etc/init.d. As as a result, the service is not stopped on shut down. I must be missing something

I have an array: $nodes = [''gfs01'' ,''gfs02'', ''gfs03'', ''gfs04] and a string variable: $brick_store = "/var/bricks" How can I append "/var/bricks" to each item in the array? Lack of a looping construct makes this challenging in puppet. Such that: brick_array = [''gfs01:/var/bricks'',

I''m confused about this... https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-stdlib/ I see a lot of functions there that are the same as the ones that come standard with puppet. If I create a module and dump this stuff in there, what happens to the existing stuff? How does puppet know which one to use? Doug -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

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

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 been struggling with puppet variable scope all day, well, for several months actually. I think I have pretty simple requirements. For any given node, I want to be able to set a series of variables and include a set of classes, based on three different aspects of a node, being physical location, operating system, and function. If I try and do this with classes, I find that variables

Well, this kinda sux. We have three Asterisk servers. Phones register to a single, primary server. When a phone on one wants to reach a phone on another, we use DUNDi to discover the destination pbx and IAX to transfer the call to the other Asterisk box. This seems to be a fairly common practice amongst Asterisk users, yes? Well, what about setting variables before call placement? Say you want
