Hello group, I''m trying to generate configuration for tomcat server. I want it to depend on my mod_jk properties file. I wrote some simple script which you can see here: http://pastebin.com/CffBr0Nc it works just fine. So I tried to move it to puppet as my custom function. It''s available for review here: http://pastebin.com/AeQgTTT6 Now, when I''m running first in irb,

hello list!! I have developed a custom apache module for my company that setups up our own particular config of httpd and php in order to run our sites.. However, there is one wrinkle. It take two puppet runs to start the httpd service with this module and we''d like to get that down to one run! The reason seems to be that we have our own custom ssl vhost conf that we use called

So I''m new to puppet and I''m having a bear of a time just getting a test server going. I installed puppet and the puppet client via yum on CentOS on AWS, so that saved me some time. I followed a few various blog posts about getting everything set up and applying a file, etc. Now I am trying to install a module (puppetlabs/apache) and it''s failing miserably for me. I

Hello everyone. I''ve been toying around with puppet and something happened that seems strange to me. In site.pp I have the following: > node default { > > # This is where you can declare classes for all nodes. > > # Example: > > # class { ''my_class'': } > > # class { ''lamp'': } > > package

Hello, I use a type i just written that install apache basicaly it is httpd and you provide the version (it is just a wrapper to the packets system) .

Hi, This is the third or fourth time this happens.

Hello... I am looking to replace my current config file management solution with puppet. I looked at both cfengine and puppet and neither seem to have a "diff" option. as in: configfile { "/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf": source => "/httpd/httpd.conf" } will install a httpd.conf file. What I would like is to be able to see a unified diff of the

Puppeteers, I''ve seen things in the documentation to make me think this is possible but I''m not sure how to implement it. Here''s what I''d like to do: puppetd pulls down a config file, say httpd.conf BEFORE puppetd moves it to $path, I''d like to have it check it''s integrity with apachectl configtest IF configtest passes, then puppetd should

I am trying to use puppetlabs apache module on CentOS to install mod php package. class {''apache::mod::php'': } It returns error "Error: Could not find dependency Package[httpd] for A2mod[php5]". I am using Puppet 3.1 version. Do I need to call class{''apache'': } explicitly to get mod-php install working? If I try that as follows then it

Hi, I worked with puppet (< 0.25) back in 2008/2009. We were able to deploy 200 servers from scratch and manage them. It worked fine. I''m now with a new customer and I''m pushing Puppet (and I''m also back to puppet on a side project). We''re considering Puppet 2.6 to manage RHEL/CentOS 5 or 6 hosts. I''m "upgrading myself" to Puppet

Hello I am new to Puppet and am having a hard time relating modules and classes in configuration files to actual operating system files.

I''m finding the way to import a file or a class stored in string in ruby manifest.

Here''s the problem I''m trying to solve. I use apache, for lots of things, some of those things are configured from a performance standpoint differently. In less vague terms I need to be able to change the MaxClients setting to different things based on the different purposes apache serves.

Hello, When I set: source => "puppet://mypuppet.company.com/apache/httpd.conf" which directory should I put httpd.conf under the puppet server machine mypuppet.company.com?

Not sure if people are already aware of this, but it might save someone some time in the future.

I''m working on configuring a master in a lab environment, using Puppet Open Source. My master is running RHEL 6. I want to use modules to manage the master itself as much as possible, so I can use puppet to bootstrap itself as I go forward and move into production. Using puppetlabs/puppetdb to configure puppetdb, I''ve overcome most of my issues but I have two questions. 1)
