Seems like nodes are matching the default node before they are matching the more specific nodes. My site.pp has: include "nodes/*.pp" In the nodes directory are two files, default.pp and nagios_server.pp. default.pp: node default { include role::common } nagios_server.pp: node ''mon01.us1.xxx.com'' { $node_env = "production" include

I''m sure people have hit this problem before. In my nagios module, the nagios command pipe file at /var/lib/nagios3/rw/nagios.cmd is owned by the nagios user, but needs to be written to by the www-data user. Adding the www-user to the nagios group is one solution, but that requires that the nagios module potentially modify the www-data user, which seems bad. What''s the best way

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 am using stored configs to manage my nagios host and services checks and I have run into a problem that I have been unable to solve. When the stored configs are purged from puppet the nagios server correctly removes them from the services and hosts file but does not notify the nagios service and instead throws an error. So the entries are still there and nagios still reports on them until

Hello ! I''m trying to implement a Nagios solution based on David Schmitt''s Complete Config. But I the following error when running puppetd -t - v : notice: Starting catalog run err: //Node[monitoring]/nagios::target/Nagios::Host[]/File[/conf.d/ _host.cfg]/ensure: change from absent to present failed: Could not set present on ensure: No such file or directory - /conf.d/

All- Poking around in the bug database it looks like storeconfigs is being actively worked on. I am using 2.7.6 on my master as well as all the clients. I have clients boot , start puppet and get a signed cert via auto signing. The nagios module (and currently the only thing puppet does) complains a lot during compile time about not having storeconfigs enabled, which is not the case in my

Dear all, I''m seeing this strange thing: When I run "*puppet agent -td*" on the node (Nagios, in this example case), puppet fails to install Nagios3 (on Debian) with this: Debug: Executing ''/usr/bin/dpkg-query -W --showformat ${Status} ${Package} > ${Version}\n nagios3'' > Debug: Executing ''/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o >

Package: logcheck-database Severity: normal Tags: patch The rules in /etc/ignore.d/server/nagios contain the explicit version number "2". Now that lenny includes nagios3, those rules don't work anymore. Please change the rules to work for both nagios2 and 3. That can easily be done by replacing the 2 by (2|3) for example. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT

Hi! If I change manifest on master and then immediately run "puppet agent --no-daemonize --report --pluginsync --onetime" then it still uses old version of manifest. When I run it second time it sees changes and applies them. Why is it like that? Is it intended to be so? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To

Hi folks, For the first time since I started playing with puppet I started down the road of using exported resources This was inspired by my reading all of the nagios related recipes that went something along the lines of class nagios { package {nagios: ensure=> latest } service {nagios : ensure => running , enable => true} Nagios_host <<! !>>

I''ve tried to achieve my overall goals with several different features of Puppet, but I''ve hit a bit of a wall here. I think it''s time for me to explain what I''m trying to accomplish: I want the enabling of a service in my manifests to configure the monitoring of that service by a nagios server, without needless repetition. Let me explain how my

Hi folks, I noticed an interesting problem with the nagios_* providers especially in Debian. Besides writing to the wrong file (I fixed that issue) I''ve noticed there is a umask issue where the config files end up being owned by root with perms 0640. This causes nagios to spit milk out of its nose because it cannot read the configuration files. I came up with a kludgey solution to the

My issue may be related to this bug: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/13858 "Custom types in environments require loading into master''s libdir" However, now I''m not so sure, This was working previously with a given client.

Is anyone working on Nagios 3.x RPMs? If not, perhaps I'll whip some up and submit them to some appropriate repository. Geoff Galitz Blankenheim NRW, Deutschland http://www.galitz.org

So I am beginning the long process of learning puppet... and it seems that I am missing some vital things. My systems are RHEL-4, and i have installed the puppet/facter/puppetmasterd from dlutter@redhat.com''s archive.

How can I pass an array to a define? It''s not documented in the puppet language guide. I''ve got: define lvm::create_vg ( $pvdisks ) { exec { ''pvcreate'': command => "/sbin/pvcreate -yf $pvdisks", unless => "/sbin/pvdisplay $pvdisks", ... } } class someclass { lvm::create_vg {

When an error occurs in prerun_command, puppet continues execution instead of stopping. We can see the error at the log file, but puppet cotinues doing changes: puppetd[18430]: Failed to prepare catalog: Could not run command from prerun_command: Execution of ''/path/to/command'' returned 1: We want to prevent changes when an error occurs in prerun_command.

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
