similar to: Modules in Environments

I''ve installed the puppet labs lvm module. After fixing the missing "}" at line 20 in init.pp (really?!?!), I''m getting this:'' err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid resource type physical_volume at /truth/sauce/env/prod/modules/role/manifests/common.pp:43

I''m trying to use environments and seem to be failing. Right now I have 4 defined environments: production, cat, development, beta They are defined as follows on my puppetmaster: cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [main] pluginsync = true vardir = /var/lib/puppet manifest = /etc/puppet/environments/production/site.pp modulepath = /etc/puppet/environments/production/modules [master] reports =

Does anyone have any suggestions about how to deal with multiple environments/tiers? For instance, we have several environments ( production, dev, qa, etc.. ) and within each environment, different tiers ( web, data, app, etc ). Each tier is a different IP network segment, so all the hosts in each tier have different configurations for certain things like resolv.conf, ntp.conf and so on. We do

All, I have --confdir=/etc/puppet/common in my /etc/init.d/puppetmaster and /etc/init.d/puppet files, vardir set to /var/lib/puppet in /etc/puppet/common/puppet.conf, and yet, every time I run puppetca it creates /etc/puppet/ssl. Anyone know why? Doug. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email

I also made the changes below in the puppet.conf file to tell puppet where to look for the the modules and manifests. I then restart the puppet master then ran puppet command to apply changes to a puppet client it did not find anything to change just got these three lines "info: Caching catalog for pdlnx-adpt03.kareoprod.ent, info: Applying configuration version

I started getting the following errors from my puppet master: > Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Invalid parameter provider at /some/module/manifests/foo.pp The module would vary, but the error was always the same. I started googling, searching lists, etc. And turned up a whole bucket load of issues that all seem related and are all unresolved:

I''m testing the new environments feature in 0.24.1. http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMultipleEnvironments But I am having a problem getting it to recognise the modulepath setting within the environment. I''m wondering if this is a bug or if I am doing something wrong For this example, the environments are called "prod" and "test". On the

So I''m trying to get multiple environments to work with puppet 0.25.1 on ubuntu 8.04 and no matter what I do, puppet just completely ignores any environment setting. There''s really next to no information in terms of configuration on the multiple environments documentation page (http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/UsingMultipleEnvironments) other than saying that the

Hello All, Moving from 2.5 to 2.6.2 and I was wondering if there is a preferred directory structure for using multiple environments? Does it work much different in 2.6 than in 2.5? When I made the move I assumed (I know) that my current structure and configurations would just roll over but that isn''t the case.

I''m running puppet in a local VM to do some testing, and all of our systems are behind a proxy. I''ve got the http_proxy environment variable set properly, but when I try to use puppet module install <foo> it doesn''t seem to honor it and can''t connect. I used wget to download it, but even when I use modulepath it still tries to connect to the forge and

Hi List, I'm currently setting up an openldap server and included the following lines in my slapd.conf : modulepath /usr/lib/ldap moduleload back_hdb after finishing up my config and i run slaptest on it i get an error saying that the modulepath doesn't exist. I checked and it indeed isn't there , in fact i can find it anywhere on my system (centos 5.7). the packages i've

My understanding was that at the beginning of each run the puppetmaster imports all modules so that any includes at the top level are applied directly. However, I am not so sure anymore. I''ve been tracing how this works and it seems like modules are included more lazily. In other words, when able_to_import is called seems like when the magic happens, rather than up front when the run

Hi, I am running puppet version 0.25.1 on both the server and client and am getting the following error on a puppet run: err: Could not apply complete catalog: Could not retrieve dependency ''Class[http]'' of Class[puppet::http] Class http is defined in the "http" module like so: class http { package { httpd: ensure => installed } file {

Hello everyone, A long time ago, I posted the Stanford Best Practices and I''ve gone through and updated it today. I''d like to have people go through it and see if we can strip out some Stanford specific stuff and tag this as an official best practice. I think an official best practice will be important as more and more people consider making shareable modules, etc (mostly

Hello, I''m writing my first puppet function rspec test and am having a problem which I don''t see how to solve. The function (and the test) involve access to files through the File Server. In order for the function (and the test) to work I need to pass "--fileserverconf=fileserver.conf" parameter to Puppet. So far I haven''t found a way to do that. If I

Hi List, Puppet Version: v2.7.13 Question - If I correctly setup multiple manifestdir''s in the puppet.conf file how can I import a node pp file located in a different directory tree to site.pp?

Hi, I have a Puppet Enterprise (2.0) puppetmaster running with Foreman, and having trouble getting it working as an External Node Classifier. In short, if I manually add a test client into site.pp, it will retrieve the proper catalog / classes, but I would like to avoid having to do that. I''m also using environments (production/testing/ development) as well, but think I have most of

Hi, When I execute *puppet agent --test --debug --verbose* on the target host, I receive the following error message: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find class pe_accounts for targethost on node targethost warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I enabled debugging for the Puppet Master, and
