For the benefit of those running OEL (Oracle Enterprise Linux) or OVS, be aware that under 2.6.0rc4 facter doesn''t properly recognize OEL in /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter/operatingsystemrelease.rb. A diff for a fix is below; probably not the best fix but if you need it work now, this''ll do it for you. I''ve already filed a bug:

Hi All. I am using: #rpm -qa | egrep ''puppet|facter'' puppetlabs-release-6-7.noarch puppet-3.1.1-1.el6.noarch facter-1.7.1-1.el6.x86_64 on: #cat /etc/redhat-release ; uname -r CentOS release 6.4 (Final) 2.6.32-358.11.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64 My hostname is server.one.two.com: # hostname server.one.two.com # hostname --fqdn one.two.com #grep HOSTNAME /etc/sysconfig/network

I''m trying to load custom facts via /etc/facter/facts.d/* according to instructions on http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/custom_facts.html#structured-data-facts I must have missed a setting somewhere because I get nothing. The first clue may be that /etc/facter didn''t exist. I had to create it manually. Is there a setting or search path I need to create? Details: puppet

The facter 1.6.18 tarball has many issues. First, the ext/osx/createpackage.sh script still uses packagemaker, which is deprecated. And even if it used that, there are a few references to files in the now-deleted conf/osx/ directory. So it''s pretty difficult to create a Mac pkg from this, but after some tweaking of the createpackage.sh script, I managed to do it! I ran the package it

I installed the 2.6.2 puppet and facter 1.5.8 gems and tried to run puppet, but it failed with the following message: err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not retrieve local facts: uninitialized constant Facter::IPAddress Then I tried running facter alone: # facter /usr/lib64/ruby/vendor_ruby/1.8/facter/ipmess.rb:19: uninitialized constant Facter::IPAddress (NameError) After

Not sure if this is another issue cropping up with 0.24.1 but I''m getting the following: info: Loading fact raid /etc/puppet/facts/location.rb:5: private method `split'' called for nil:NilClass (NoMethodError) from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `call'' from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/facter.rb:510:in `value'' from

Hi, I run into problems with the ipaddress fact using the latest Facter gem (1.6.4, 1.6.5) on SLES11. The versions and gems I use work perfectly fine on SLES10 SP3. The problem: running "facter" without arguments results in an error, even though the erroring fact "ipaddress" is ok. test:~ # cat /etc/SuSE-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11 (x86_64) VERSION = 11 PATCHLEVEL

I''ve run into an odd one on one of my new RHEL 6 boxes. Puppet and Facter seem to disagree about the value of a fact. Puppet version: 2.7.9 Facter version: 1.6.4 Module: puppetlabs-apache apache::params falls through its if structure: if $::osfamily == ''redhat'' or $::operatingsystem == ''amazon'' { ... } elsif $::osfamily ==

Hello, Since i use facter 1.5.5 i got error running it by hand. It still work in puppet but i loosed the hability to run it from the command line: (aqadmin)> /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/facter-1.5.5/bin/facter /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/facter-1.5.5/bin/facter:50:in `require'': no such file to load -- facter (LoadError) from /var/lib/gems/1.8/gems/facter-1.5.5/bin/facter:50

I''ve just committed Facter 1.3.8. All of the work for this release was done by James Turnbull, so everyone should thank him for getting it done. Here''s the changelog: Fixed Rdoc::usage bug on CentOS 5 - closed Puppet #753 and Facter #40 Added support to return multiple interfaces and their IP addresses and MAC addressess as facts. Returns

Sometimes "facter --yaml" doesn''t list all the values specified on the command line. I can''t find rhyme nor reason why. Here''s a demo to show what I mean: # facter --version 1.5.7 # facter --yaml fqdn macaddress lsbdistcodename --- fqdn: my.host.name.example.com lsbdistcodename: squeeze macaddress: "00:00:00:00:00:00" We had been using the above

Hello list. I am trying to read the IP address of the eth0 interface from a CentOS 6.5 VM (XenServer). Running the manifest gives empty values to all of the following vars: $ipaddress, $ipaddress_eth0, and its $::<name> version. $interfaces has "eth0,lo". Running facter from the VM I get: # facter -v 2.0.1 # facter | grep virtual is_virtual => true virtual => xenu #

Hi All Background: I am running Puppet to configure ESX 3.5 servers by NFS mounting the Puppet binaries and configuration from a shared server.
