similar to: gem install puppet-2.6.3 problem

Hello, I''ve just installed Ruby, Facter and Puppet from source (versions listed below) and am getting the following error, when trying to run Puppet 2.6.3: [root@localhost puppet]# ruby --version ruby 1.9.2p0 (2010-08-18 revision 29036) [i686-linux] [root@localhost puppet]# ruby -ropenssl -e "puts :installed" installed [root@localhost puppet]# ruby -rxmlrpc/client -e "puts

Hi, I''ve noticed that defining multiple facts in one file is possible, and puppet can make use of them correctly, but when trying to call with facter --puppet they are not shown, do I need something special to make them work as any other single custom fact? Master is running 2.6.7 This is a custom fact with two facts in it: [modules/foobar/lib/facter/foobar.rb ] require

Hi all, please help me: First time I totally had to delete all ruby and Rails because of this problem. How to solve it well?

For 40 days and 40 nights Facter wandered in the wilderness sustained only by the occasional patch and bottle of Kool-Aid.

Hi all, I am creating a recipe for rhel boxes which needs to determine what type of install is present (server or client). I thought I would use the facter fact lsbdistid for this purpose but when I run "facter lsbdistid" from the command line nothing is returned. If I just run facter and grep for lsbdistid, what I am looking for is returned. Does anyone know why this might be?

I''ve just filed http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/ticket/1182 with the aim of making it easier to add fact pickup from dmidecode in manufacturer.rb. As the ticket says, I think that the fact sections, keys and values shouldn''t be hardcoded in manufacturer.rb, but should be stored in a configuration file somewhere. This means that a given stable installation of Puppet can be

I have successfully updated puppet clients from my master using the built-in WEBrick server. When I updated my setup to using Apache2+passenger, my clients get this error message: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: You cannot save facts to the code store; it is only used for getting facts from Facter warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not

I just started getting this error on some machines after a yum update from centos 5.2 to centos 5.3. Does anyone know what it means? Since I''m not a ruby person, I''m not sure how to debug this, but it looks to me like facter is having trouble parsing information about my interfaces. # facter /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/ipmess.rb:19: uninitialized constant

I see the instructions for creating custom facter recipes here: http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Adding_Facts and in this thread, James Turnbull suggests that Facter might some day support other languages besides ruby: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/8c127ae8898d3bcf/c5ca551b77c4eb67?lnk=gst&q=facter+perl#c5ca551b77c4eb67 He writes:

Our puppetmaster runs on a host with multiple interfaces connected to various private networks, with different hostnames for each IP. I''m trying to use $servername in modules to copy files over a private network, but this is always set to the public hostname of the server. That route is blocked by a firewall. Is there a way to use the server variable in puppet.conf in manifests?

I''ve just committed Facter 1.3.8. All of the work for this release was done by James Turnbull, so everyone should thank him for getting it done.

Hello, I''m new to puppet and facter. Initially we are planning on using facter/puppet to inventory machines (Mac, Ubuntu, and RHEL). We plan on writing a number of custom facts. Obviouly some of the facts will only be specific to some OSs. I know there is a "confine" method, but it confuses me. It seems the confine statement in some of the recipes and in the Turnbull book is

I have been asked a question for which I cannot seem to find an answer. When a client contacts my puppetmaster, will the puppet master compile a catalog if there have been not changes to that clients configuration? Or, will the puppetmaster just say ''there are no changes to your catalog so you need not do anything''? Thanks in advance rjl -- You received this message
