I am trying to setup Puppet + Mongrel on RHEL5. So far I have followed this document: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Using_Mongrel_On_Enterprise_Linux The puppetmasters all start up and Apache starts up on 8140. However, when my client connects I get the following errors: [root@lv1764p puppet]# puppetd --server puppetdev.encana.com --no- daemonize -o -v info: Retrieving

Hello, I am running puppet server version 0.25.4-2, and since Debian squeeze is the new stable release I would like to adapt some of my modules. I have a syslog-ng module, I would like to specify another template for my squeeze server. I changed my init.pp as follow : if ($operatingsystemrelease <= 5.0.8) { $syslog_template = "syslog/syslog-ng.conf.erb" } else {

Hello guys :), I''m kind of new to Puppet and stuck in defining a conditional statement. Here my problem: I want to provide different apt/source.list for different versions of Debian, 6.0.x and 7.0.x, which also run different versions of Puppet, 2.7.x and 3.2.x. My first idea was to use facters variable operatingsystemmajrelease and define like this: file {

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

Just upgraded to 2.7.6 and the yumrepo type does not write out our yum configs correctly, anyone experiencing this? Documentation hasn''t changed from what I can tell for this type. # facter -version 1.6.2 # puppetd --version 2.7.6 # facter architecture x86_64 # facter operatingsystem Fedora # facter operatingsystemrelease 14 ==== My manifest ==== yumrepo {

I am writing my first module for ntp, I have a few different versions of Linux and also releases. The code worked when I only had one flavor of Linux but now I have four and possibly more flavors. My snippet that doesn''t work is as follows; ( I am not even sure this is the route I should be going if anyone has a better way please advise. Thank you in advance) $ntp_service = $ntpdaemon {

Currently, facter returns the kernel version as both the kernel and operatingsystemrelease facts. I would like to change that so that on Fedora, operatingsystemrelease is the release number (5,6,7 etc.) or ''Rawhide'' ... are there any objections to making that change ? David

Hi all, I''ve finally gotten around to releasing Facter 1.5. As the version bump implies, this is a relatively significant release (for a 2.3k line program, anyway). Mostly, the biggest change is refactoring the code internally so that all of the functionality is split into separate classes in separate files. Also, the facts are all loaded on-demand, which provides dramatic

Hi all, I''m looking at changing the operatingsystemrelease fact for Red Hat. Linux currently just uses the kernel release as the operating system release, but I''ve got a client who wants the release to have both the specific distro (e.g., AS or EL) and the release (e.g., 3 or 4). Will this particularly annoy anyone? Anyone want to help make the release string work on

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? Thanks! -- You received this message because you are

Hello All, How do I specify a variable that has a space in it? I''m trying to setup a yum repo that has two different baseurl''s based on the product name ($productname). Default goes one way, but if the product is "PowerEdge 2650" then is a different URL. The thing is, that is only picking up the default. How should I specify the value with the space in the

My class reads like: class name1::name2 ($gidvariable) { file { "somepath-to-file": ensure => file, mode => ''0640'', gid => $gidvariable, } } The problem is that the file isn''t getting set to the $gidvariable''s value which is a string "abc". The other things work (presence as file, mode). Stuart -- You

Hi, i want to use Puppet to install all packages from a webserver (no repository) . Therefore I wrote following Script: class install_package { case "$operatingsystem" { SLES: { notify {"${operatingsystem} ${operatingsystemrelease} detected":} notify {"Installing $packagename now:":}

puppet newbie trying to install bin file through puppet. How would I go about it? class java { package {"java_package": provider => "bin", <--this did not work # source => "puppet:///application/jdk-6u23-linux-x64-rpm.bin", source => "http://10.31.31.1/jdk-6u23-linux-x64-rpm.bin", ensure => installed

From looking at the Facter code, it looks like the ''operatingsystemrelease'' fact is currently a mirror of the ''kernelrelease'' fact. I''d like to implement this fact so that it returns the major version of the operating system, eg: Debian Sarge: operatingsystemrelease => 3.1 Debian Etch: operatingsystemrelease => 4.0 RHEL3 update 8:

In my network every subnets default gateway is X.X.X.1. That router gateway is always running ntpd which I want to give be default as the ntp server in every hosts ntp.conf. Since there is no official "default gateway" fact yet, what I want to be able to do in my manifest is take the $ipaddress fact and turn it into the gateway for that subnet. For example... IP = 10.1.1.12 GW =

In the docs it says one must add a line to the /etc/hosts file with the name "puppet" and the IP of the puppet master. This isn''t a possibility for us as the IP is subject to change. Is it possible to configure the puppet clients to look for a specific domain to find the master? eg. "puppetmaster.mydomain.com"? If so, how/where can this be configured? -- You received
