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

Hi I largely copied the example in http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/modules1.html. But I''m getting an error when running the following from the client: puppet agent --server puppetmaster --waitforcert 60 --test err: /Stage[main]/Ntp/File[ntp.conf]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve information from environment production source(s) file:/etc/puppet/modules/ntp/files/ntp.conf

whenever i run a test from client it finishes sucessfully but client is not getting any configuration changes from server [root@PROXY-02 tmp]# puppetd --noop --test notice: Ignoring --listen on onetime run info: Caching catalog for proxy-02.carnation.in info: Applying configuration version ''1327091881'' notice: Finished catalog run in 0.02 seconds [root@PROXY-03 modules]# puppet

I too have been pushed into Puppet 3.0. Clients and PuppetMaster are now at 3.0.0. Not sure if this is a version change or syntax error that I am experiencing. We''ll use ''ntp'' as the example and the "build" host is a VM. The old way: class baseline::ntpd { package { "ntp": ensure => $virtual ? { physical => present,

Hi all. I am testing 0.25.4 to upgrade from 0.23.2. In testing, I found two strange messages on 0.25.4 which I have never found on 0.24.3. So could you tell me what these messages mean and how to fix them. [Environment] Puppetmasterd -version : 0.25.4 -OS : Solaris10 10/09 Puppetd -version : same as Puppetmasterd -OS : same as Puppetmasterd [Strange messages] 1.When Puppetd

hello, we just wanted to rollout our new puppetized dmz. therefore i change all ip adresses from the test network to the live ips. after restarting puppetmasterd it seems that the fileserver hangs: client log: debug: //true_base/update-check/File[/sbin/update_check.pl]/require: requires Package[libmail-sendmail-perl] debug: //true_base/puppetd/File[/etc/puppet/puppetd.conf]/require: requires

Hi, I am using a template to create an /etc/exports file. I have a template that looks like this (but results in the puppetmasterd dying on the server when the client updates): <% nfsHomeClients.split.each do |host| -%> /nfs <%= host %>(<%= mainshareoptions %>) <% nfspaths.each do |path| -%> <%= path %> <%= host %>(<%= nfsoptions %>) <% end

Hello, I am running a puppet master version 2.7.5 on Centos 5.7 and a puppet agent version 2.7.5. I am simply trying to apply changes to files by defining a file resource in my manifest. When I execute my puppet agent to do the installation it complains it can not find the file meta data. Here is my manifest. class neospeech::config { file { "/usr/vwmrcpd/vwmrcpd/vwmrcpd":

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

Seems straight forward enough but I keep getting errors. On a client... err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Failed when searching for node ubuntu5.ttinet: LDAP Search failed on the puppet master... puppet.conf [master] # ENC (external node classificiations) node_terminus = ldap ldapnodes = true ldapclassattrs = puppetclass # LDAP ldapserver =

Hi all, I''m having a stupid moment getting a remote file bucket working. My client only file buckets locally, not remotely. I have this site.pp: ********* filebucket { "main": server => "puppet" } File { backup => "main" } node ''default'' { include test } ********* and this test module: ********* class test { file {

i would like to use the module puppet-lvm and would like to pass values to it.

on my puppet master server (v 2.7.17 , both server and client version) , the puppet agent can''t connect to itself. other clients connected to this puppet server are working fine. the hostname is puppet.domain.com [root@puppet /]# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [main] # The Puppet log directory. # The default value is ''$vardir/log''. logdir = /var/log/puppet

Not sure if people are already aware of this, but it might save someone some time in the future. I''ve been tracking down the following error today, it''s rather unhelpful in telling you where the problem is in your manifests: # puppetd --test info: Retrieving plugin err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Could not intern from pson: Could not convert from pson: Could

Hi, installing puppet at my first site was quite easy (not w/o problems, but still). At the second site, I''ve run into something more serious. First things first - I install puppetmaster on existing server, used to keep LDAP db (my puppetmaster DOES NOT use LDAP, it just tries to coexist on the same machine). The thing is, I need to puppet this baby, so I''m running into a

I''m rather new to puppet and I''ve been trying to get a module to work on the client servers. Right now I''m trying to get http://forge.puppetlabs.com/ghoneycutt/pam to run. When I try to run it I get these two errors: err: //pam/File[/etc/pam.d/sshd]: Failed to retrieve current state of resource: Could not retrieve information from source(s)

I am new to using puppet and having trouble when updating an agent from a master which has a lot of files. Usually the updates work, but when there are a lot of files I get this error when running: sudo puppetd --test --server puppet.example.local --trace --debug >>> debug: Failed to load library ''rubygems'' for feature ''rubygems'' debug: Failed to load

Warning - Puppet newby here. I am trying to set up a puppetmaster 3.3.2 and have run into a snag right out of the box. I want to add a new directory to modulepath= in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf So I added the following line in the [main] header modulepath = /etc/puppet/modules:/opt/our-repo/puppetmaster/modules And populated new new directory with modules I have written. I then run puppet
