Hi, I''m a fairly new to Puppet but so far have been very pleased with the recipes and my own simple scripts. However, I''ve hit a wall in the form of OSSEC, (http://www.ossec.net/main/) Most of my servers are running ubuntu or debain and neither support OSSEC via apt-get. I''ve thought about setting up my own local repository to handle this and to also package my own

Hey folks, I''ve just uploaded an apache2 module[1] to our Google Code repository[2]. It''s based largely on the recipe available on the Puppet trac[3], but with a fair amount of modification and generalization... Basically, it provides abstractions for config file snippets, site definitions, and apxs modules -- and then "basic" and "debian"

Hi, I''m trying to set up apache2 under puppet, as in this recipe: http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/Recipes/DebianApache2Recipe I have a file "apache2.pp" as shown there, and then a webserver.pp file (see below). On running puppetd on the client, I get this message: err: Could not retrieve configuration: Could not find definition site in file

Hi there. I''m trying to wrap my head around puppet and its parlance and need some guidance... 2 Questions: 1) I have done some puppet stuff on a new server and would like to hear whether I have done things "the right way" 2) I want to build on top of that and am not sure how... Question 1 ========== We don''t normally host static websites for people, but have been

Hi, ppl, I m following the puppet cookbook tutorial. On page 167 to 169 Managing Apache Servers. When I add the: apache::snippet { "site-specific.conf": } I got the error of the title: Could not parse for environment production: Syntax error at ''{''; expected ''}'' at /etc/puppet/manifests/nodes.pp:3.

In manifest i have this instruction: file { "/etc/apache2": owner => root, group => root, mode => 740, recurse => true, source => "puppet:///dist/apache2" } By syntax its right, but on client i see error: err: /Stage[main]/Testing170/File[/etc/apache2]: Failed to generate additional resources using

Basically, the way puppet installs things things with /usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install <package_name> fails due to authentication WARNING: The following packages cannot be authenticated But if I do it from an ssh console normally, using apt-get install <package_name> it works fine without issues. Is there a way to change how puppet uses the

I made two decisions this afternoon that are now related to each other. 1. Use more of the modules that exist in the Forge 2. Rebuild my monitoring server As I perused the various modules that help with managing monitoring packages my eyes fell upon a module that reported to be able to manage nagiosql, a setup that I had been planning on migrating my nagios monitoring to. So I installed

I''ve tried this over and over, and I just cannot get it to work. I''m trying to do a proof of concept on puppet, so I''m using two CentOS 5.3 systems running in VMs on separate hardware (i.e. the two VMs are not on the same physical box). I''ve built the systems from scratch numerous times, and then pulled down puppet from the rpmforge repo. In the course of

Let me start by saying, I am a puppet rookie. I am trying to get a passenger module working and receive the following messages. I am trying to figure understand where the ''resource type '' should be? Or, defined?

I was finally able to get ldapnodes [1] working on our puppetmaster so i''m able to start working on the fun stuff. In the last few days it has become critical that we come up with a better way to manage the configuration of our Solaris zones. I am planning to write a recipe that provisions the zone [using the zone resource type], but would like to avoid having to keep a stockpile
