nested modules and autoloading
All-
I''m using puppet 2.7.14. I''ve reviewed
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/modules_fundamentals.html
but it doesn''t seem to cover what I''m attempting.
Consider a module layout like this:
$ tree mymodule
mymodule
|-- Modulefile
|-- README
|-- manifests
| |-- init.pp
| |-- special_type
| | `-- prereqs.pp
| `-- special_type.pp

Install RPM package via puppet
I am trying to get a package (iftop) installed on a test node using puppet
but I can''t get it to install. This seems like it should be simple, but I
can''t figure out what I am missing. Have done a lot of searching for
similar problems and the answers I found seem to be vague in the details
and explanation.
I have the package added to an internal yum repo. OS is Centos 5.4.

Puppet & Oracle Database config management
Afternoon all.
I''ve been reading around on Puppet and Oracle, and have come up with a few
links that suggest how to get Oracle installed and base configured, which
has got me started in the right direction on that.
My next challenge is maintaining Oracle database specific configuration on
the relevant hosts. This contains various elements, such as /etc/oratab,
/etc/oranfstab (as

puppet-lint and 80 characters line limit?
Hi.
I''m getting lots of warning like this one from puppet-lint:
WARNING: line 67 has more than 80 characters
Now, I don''t like warnings, so any idea how should I rewrite this line
for example, to void the warning?

ensure => ''0.5.2-2.el6.rf'',

Have Class Only Perform Actions When There Is Work To Do (i.e. Making Them Idempotent)
Howdy. I feel like I am missing something really simply with regards to the
way that Puppet works and I am wondering if someone can point me in the
write direction.
I have written a class that downloads, uncompresses, compiles, and installs
Python from source. So far so good. The problem is that it only needs to do
this once, when Python is not already in place (or some other custom

Irix UseLogin wtmp/utmp bug
I am using the "UseLogin yes" configuration parameter to call the
/usr/bin/login program on SGI Irix, (we are using Irix version
6.5.13). I do this because the SGI login program is AFS awhere and
checks out a token for you and I do not want to compile the Kerberos
version of sshd, (it is to messy for me to support).
Everything seems to work fine accept the wtmp(x) and utmp(x) files do

Hiera: Bug with false booleans
Hi,
I''ve just run into a small glitch with Hiera.
I have a YAML file that has a definition like this:
puppet_agent_splay: false
but the run fails because of
"err: Could not find data item puppet_agent_splay in any Hiera data
file and no default supplied at
/puppet/modules/puppet/manifests/agent/config.pp:6 on node

puppet could'nt find hiera even when hiera gem is installed
Hiera was properly working in my environment. But puppet was looking at old
version even when I have the latest hiera gem installed. So I could''nt
use json backend. But puppet is not looking at my latest hiera gem. Not
sure when went wrong here.
Scenario:
I have installed hiera couple of months back. So the gem was installed
under

hiera on puppet 2.6.12
Hi,
I''m trying to use standard hiera on puppet (gentoo). I simply did
# gem install hiera
Then setup /etc/hiera.yaml
When i call the hiera() function in puppet i get
"Error 400 on SERVER: Unknown function hiera at /data/puppet/manifests/
site.pp:27"
Is there a step that I''m missing?
BTW. standalone hiera works fine.

Before I begin, my environment consists of a standard master/client config with the exception that all my clients run under a non-root user. I have to use non-root so I can''t simply restart under root to fix the problem.
Master -> 3.1.1
Client -> 2.7.17

Hiera problem: Can't convert Symbol into String

hiera scope and hiera-foreman
Hey all,
I''ve been messing around with the hiera-foreman backend to see if it would
let me migrate to hiera and use foreman and an ENC.
https://github.com/torrancew/hiera-foreman
It works by querying each node''s yaml file from foreman. Currently this
code works when called from the hiera command line with the -m (mcollective
option). It uses the mcollective facts to pull

Overriding class options with hiera
Hi,
I''m trying to do something with Hiera, whereby the ''default'' configuration
for a class is within it''s role/profile manifest, which can then be
overridden on a node specific basis by hiera.
As an example;

hiera data bindings and template()
Hi,
I''m using Puppet 3.2.1 and heavily relying on hiera data bindings.
I have the following situation:
class software (
$my_content = undef,
) {
file { ''/path/to/file'':
content => $software::my_content,
}
}
in hieradata/software.yaml (hiera.yaml seems ok):
software::my_content: template(''mymodule/myfile.erb'')
With this configuration I
