similar to: Removing the ability to serve symlinks as symlinks from the master...

The file{} type can do all of the following: * manage single files * manage directories * manage symlinks * manage recursive file copies The intersection of all these bits of functionality makes it difficult to understand exactly what is going on when you''re new to Puppet, and even experienced users often don''t know how combining symlinks/content management is going to work.

Hello, We''re trying to come up with a nice way to indicate when a Puppet module like cloud provisioner breaks a Puppet subcommand because of missing dependencies. When this happens in the current 3.0rc branch, all help for all subcommands is unavailable. This isn''t very helpful. We''re planning to simply mark the subcommands that have incomplete actions as

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7600 I call this the "agent orange" option :) This works, purging all unmanaged hosts entries: resources { ''host'': purge => true, noop => true, } We should have a similar property for all (most?) types.

I''ve just posted a feature request <http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8120> relating to FIPS 140-2 compliance. I''m pointing to it here on the mailing list because I listed there five places where Puppet (nay, Ruby!) crashed while I was testing a deployment using FIPS mode on all hosts. It crashed because it tried to use MD5, and OpenSSL in FIPS mode doesn''t let

Hey folks, I am reviewing the following pull request, which has to do with how puppet deals with symlinks in selinux: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/563 Just wondering if there is anyone out there who considers themselves strong with selinux who has an opinion on this one way or the other. Thanks in advance! Chris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

Hi All, In my set-up, I''ve got a cron job that triggers a Puppet run every 20 minutes. I''ve found that on approximately 13 nodes (out of 166), puppetd just hangs. I have to go in, kill the process, remove /var/lib/puppet/state/puppetdlock, and run puppet again and then it''s fine. After a while, it just hangs again so I have to go in, kill the process, etc. Any ideas?

Hello, I am a bit confused by the REST syntax - how can I PUT an arbitrary file in the bucket? Downloading works fine (Perl+LWP), see below, but for PUT I only see this line in the docs (http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/rest_api.html): PUT /{environment}/file_bucket_file/md5/{checksum} Should I compute the MD5 of the file and port its contents at the url ? my code: my $ua =

Hi, I am working on some tools that read and write pp files, and I wonder if there are some pp files available somewhere that can be used to test a parser.

I''m installing puppet from git per instructions in another thread. The instructions given at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/installation.html for installing puppet from source lead to it dumping things all over my Ruby, which I really wasn''t expecting and doesn''t work well with our environment. (1) How do I uninstall it? (2) How do I turn the git source into a gem?

Is there a standard way to do this, short of having some kind of web service accessible from all the client systems? From my limited Puppet knowledge, anything I

The machines i am testing with are all CentOS 5.5 so far. I have defined 3 additional stages, Stage [init] -> Stage [pre] -> Stage [main] -> Stage [post] to attempt to fix this to no avail.
