How do folks feel about getting Puppet job listings on this list? I''ve rejected a few that we quite spammy, but when the subject matter really is a system admin with puppet experience, the decision becomes a bit different. I''m looking for general feelings. A simple +1 or -1 would be great. Mike -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

Hi all, i planned for a startup to install one of this gui tools. But if i look in the documentation, or google it, i find no results which helps. If i would like to install the rpm package i get the following dependencies problems rpm -i puppet-dashboard-1.2.3-1.el6.noarch.rpm warning: puppet-dashboard-1.2.3-1.el6.noarch.rpm: Header V4 RSA/SHA1 signature: NOKEY, key ID 4bd6ec30 error: Failed

Hi, I am trying to install puppet-dashboard on my puppet server, which is running CentOS 5.4. However, I cannot find a RPM for REHL 5 on http://yum.puppetlabs.com/. So the question is how I can get the puppet-dashboard rpm for CentOS 5.4? Thanks. Hai Tao -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Greetings, I''d like to remove the cruft (no longer maintained) areas of yum.puppetlabs.com. I fear they only cause confusion and offer less-than-desirable experience for our users. I''d like to remove /base /prosvc /porsvc.unsigned /SRMS /sources I''d like to do this some time next week. The stuff mostly found in base is available elsewhere and signed properly. The

Puppet Labs is really thrilled to announce, in conjunction with EMC, our new open source bare metal provisioning tool: Razor. Razor is next generation provisioning software that handles bare metal hardware and virtual server provisioning with inventory discovery and tagging, rule-based policy management, and extensible broker plugin integration. It integrates closely with Puppet and Facter. The

I want to use Puppet and Facter on a machine where I don''t have sudo or root access privileges. I won''t be using Puppet for anything that requires that level of access, so I should be OK if I can get it on the box. Any advice on how to proceed? Currently the Facter installer complains that it doesn''t have privileges for /usr/bin/facter. I assume Puppet will have the same

Puppet 2.7.8rc1 is available. 2.7.8rc1 contains everything that was being previewed in the 2.7.7rc series as well as some new content. Key highlight in this release (beyond items from 2.7.7rc series) are: * Allow providers to be selected in the run they become suitable * Showdiff is now not auto-enabled when running in noop mode * Provide default subjectAltNames while bootstrapping

This a feature release candidate (number 3) of Puppet Dashboard. If you''re wondering what happened to rc2, it was internal only. Our CI system found a few issues before we released it to the public. This release is available for download at: http://downloads.puppetlabs.com/dashboard/ We have included Debian and RPM packages as well as a tarball. See the Verifying Puppet Download

Hi, I''m having a weird issue and was wondering if anyone else had run into it. I recently upgraded from puppet 2.7 -> 3.0.1 After cleaning up some gems on my puppet master everything seemed to be working ok. I had originally used the EPEL repo''s to deploy puppet, but switched to the Puppet Labs repos so I could upgrade to 2.7 then 3. On RHEL5 only, I get a RSTRING_PTR

Welcome to the first Puppet Dashboard maintenance release of the new year.

Hi folks, When I enabled stored configs on my puppet master, it began keeping lots of open connections to the MySQL server (as far as I understand it opened one connection for each client run and never closed them). I set up the server to close idle connections after 5 minutes. Now the database server does close the connections but the puppet master keeps them in CLOSE_WAIT state and eventually

Hi, I thing this issue has been mentioned several times in this list but I can''t see any conclusion. In about 10% of all runs Puppet randomly fails on some (random) File resource either with this error: Thu Jun 24 02:40:03 +0000 2010 //<random module>/File[<random file>] (err): Failed to generate additional resources using ''eval_generate'': or this error:

Hi, I''m running multiple vservers and have some aspects managed via puppet. I noticed that puppetd consumes from 20 to 60 mb RAM and the longer the process runs, the more RAM it takes. It looks like 60MB is the top what I measured. Having a couple of vservers (11 in my case) this can already take up to 500MB just for puppet! I''m wondering if there''s any downside in

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7612 The exported resources syntax: @@user { luke: ensure => present } Is concise and powerful, but very difficult to read. We should consider word-based syntax, e.g.: export @user { luke: ensure => present } And taking into account #7605, perhaps: export virtual user { luke: ensure => present } Please comment on the ticket or reply

Sharing my stoopid mistake in the hopes of saving someone else the same grief: I had a boolean toggle that was not performing as expected. Long story short: I had put quotes around the word "false" class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => "false" } was coming up TRUE To fix it, lose the quotes class { ''foo'' : boolFlag => false } “Sometimes I

Hi all, Is there a more elegant way to regenerate the Puppet master certificate than what''s described in the CVE-2011-3872 toolkit? > If you can maintain a secondary shell session to the puppet master server, you can start a WEBrick master with puppet master --no-daemonize --verbose and stop it with ctrl-C. > If you prefer to only maintain one shell session, you can start a
