I have this config: # BL00070 - Disable NFS service {["nfs","nfslock","netfs","portmap"]: ensure => stopped, enable => false, } user {"rpc": ensure => absent, provider => "useradd" } user {"rpcuser": ensure => absent, provider => "useradd" } file

So I have two classes for openvz setup. The first is openvz::setup and it sets up the box for OpenVZ.. then another class (in same .pp file) called openvz::master sets up the config for the main system (as opposed to a VE). The error I see is that the openvz::master class is executed (and fails) becuase it doesn''t seem to load up the setup class? debug: Calling puppetmaster.getconfig

Hi, I''m gettinng a dependency cycle when using PE 2.7, puppetlabs::mrepo, "role classes" and hiera : I''m trying to mirror RHN repos : # ROLE CLASS > class site::yum_repository{ > > $repos = hiera(''site::yum_repository::repos'') > create_resources(mrepo::repo::rhn, $repos) > } > # HIERA DEFAULTS >

I had some questions come up today during the Puppet demo here: 1. Is there any way to apply different intervals to different classes? For example, we might want a security baseline manifest to run once a month, package installation files once/day, etc. Since we''re a brokerage, we also don''t want ANY system changes during trading hours. I guess we could cron killing the

I have a node that has some bad stored configs (namely the wrong ssh host keys) that I''m trying to clear out. Looking around it seems I''m supposed to do: puppet node clean foo.example.com However, that keeps bailing out because it''s trying to open a SQLite3 db where stored configs are normally kept, but my stored configs are kept in puppetdb (http://pastie.org/7814483

Hi all, I have three parameterized classes, named mq, mq_gsk and apache. The mq class always calls the mq_gsk class, but the apache class should only call the mq_gsk class when the mq class is not used in a hosts'' node definition Here is my configuration class mq ( $gsk_version = undef ) { require mq::params < ..... > class { ''mq_gsk'':

I am trying to streamline the current distribution specific setup and creation of VE''s within OpenVZ with puppet. My first attempt has gone horribly wrong as you will see below. Here''s the script I wrote to replace the redhat specific setup that OpenVZ used: [jleggett@lxp6d15m3 scripts]$ cat redhat-add_ip.sh #!/bin/bash # # Debug - take out later set -x

Hi, Is there a way to have puppetmaster sign new clients'' certificates when using apache+mongrel for serving, without having a separate puppetmaster instance running webrick on a different port/IP? I guess this does not work out of the box because apache is told to do the verification very early in the connection process, at which point it does not yet know that the client is going to

Sorry I can''t access IRC from work so I hope you don''t mind me asking my newbie questions here: 1) I have the following code: @post = Post.find(@params[''id'']) @comments = Comment.find_all "post_id = #@params[''id'']", "created_on ASC" And I am have problems with the second line. I want to pass the id from my post to the

Hi all, I need my servers to decide which network they are in (i.e. dmz), and the only clue is the servers IP-address. I was trying to accomplish it like this, but it doesn''t work: case $ipaddress { "10.1.1.*": { $network = "net1" } "10.2.2.*.*": { $network = "net2" } "10.3.3.*": {

I''ve been struggling with puppet variable scope all day, well, for several months actually. I think I have pretty simple requirements. For any given node, I want to be able to set a series of variables and include a set of classes, based on three different aspects of a node, being physical location, operating system, and function. If I try and do this with classes, I find that variables

OK... I have relaid out my puppet dir as recommended in best practices: [jleggett@binford puppet]$ find . -print | grep -v .svn . ./plugins ./plugins/lines.pp ./files ./files/module ./files/module/SSH ./files/module/SSH/ssh_config ./files/module/SSH/sshd_config ./files/module/INFO ./files/module/INFO/motd ./files/module/INFO/issue ./files/module/NIS ./files/module/NIS/nsswitch.conf

I want to start out with an apache class that will disable all modules except for a pre-defined list, thus establishing a baseline of active modules. Then as needed, other classes could enable a module that they require that would have been disabled by the baseline state. Its possible several classes may try to enable the same module (1 or more classes needing module1 could be on a single node)

Hi, I''m using one of the git projects for my Apache configuration. I''m now playing with Puppet environments, and I need to define a few parameters based on the environment. For example, I have params.pp: $user = $operatingsystem ? { /RedHat|CentOS/ => ''apache'', /Debian|Ubuntu/ => ''www-data'', } I''d like to be

Hi, I am running dashboard 1.1.0rc1 under passenger 3.0.5 and apache 2.2.3 with puppet 2.6.6. Im trying to get urls like this http://user:password@host working as suggested in the docs for reporting but atm i did not get it (401 auth requided). Maybe I am forgetting something? I use a common .htpasswd file. Auth type Basic, etc. Sorry if this has been seen in this mailing-list. I searched for

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 ==

Hi everyone, I recently ran into an issue where my puppetmaster can''t run puppet on itself. It errors out with the following: Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: execution expired Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I''m running Puppet 3 with passanger and puppetdb (hsql). I''ve tried restarting

Hi, I worked with puppet (< 0.25) back in 2008/2009. We were able to deploy 200 servers from scratch and manage them. It worked fine. I''m now with a new customer and I''m pushing Puppet (and I''m also back to puppet on a side project). We''re considering Puppet 2.6 to manage RHEL/CentOS 5 or 6 hosts. I''m "upgrading myself" to Puppet

Hi all, I''ve finally gotten around to releasing Facter 1.5. As the version bump implies, this is a relatively significant release (for a 2.3k line program, anyway). Mostly, the biggest change is refactoring the code internally so that all of the functionality is split into separate classes in separate files. Also, the facts are all loaded on-demand, which provides dramatic

Hi there. I''m trying to wrap my head around puppet and its parlance and need some guidance... 2 Questions: 1) I have done some puppet stuff on a new server and would like to hear whether I have done things "the right way" 2) I want to build on top of that and am not sure how... Question 1 ========== We don''t normally host static websites for people, but have been
