I have installed puppet 3.0.1, passenger 3.0.18 and ruby 1.9.3 and have hit errors. The error I am hitting is this: Error message:cannot load such file -- puppet/util/command_lineException class:LoadError I get this when hitting the puppet server using https://puppetserver:8140 If I use ruby 1.8, everything works. This is a new deployment so I would like to use ruby 1.9.3 rather than the

I have a puppet master install which uses puppetdb. I also have puppet dashboard installed with the inventory service running. I want multiple puppet masters using a single puppetDB server. Puppetdb is installed on separate vm. How can I get the dashboard inventory to use the puppetdb server to get the inventory records? Where do I configure the dashboard inventory so it uses puppetdb? I

hello, Till now hiera-puppet was the only way I know that allowed hiera data to be loaded from inside a module. The problem with this was that it was still subject to the site specific hierarchy which means a module author had a pretty hard time to store his data in a proper way in his module thus perpetuating the use of the params classes pattern. Now that Puppet 3 is out and it''s gem

Hi, I''m following http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/PluginsInModules in order to use a custom fact. My modules looks like: # ls manifests/modules/network/ manifests plugins # ls manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb manifests/modules/network/plugins/facter/primaryint.rb as is said in doc. Then: Turn on pluginsync and specify factpath, so that the facts

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. This is to ensure VMware don''t come back refusing support for installing non standard software on the server. # ruby -v ruby 1.8.7 (2009-04-08 patchlevel 160) [i686-linux] # facter -v 1.5.5

I see the instructions for creating custom facter recipes here: http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Adding_Facts and in this thread, James Turnbull suggests that Facter might some day support other languages besides ruby: http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/8c127ae8898d3bcf/c5ca551b77c4eb67?lnk=gst&q=facter+perl#c5ca551b77c4eb67 He writes:

Hi, I''ve noticed that defining multiple facts in one file is possible, and puppet can make use of them correctly, but when trying to call with facter --puppet they are not shown, do I need something special to make them work as any other single custom fact? Master is running 2.6.7 This is a custom fact with two facts in it: [modules/foobar/lib/facter/foobar.rb ] require

I have a small environment with a single puppetmaster and puppetdb on the same node that I get sporadic "Failed to submit ''replace facts'' command" errors from nodes. It isn''t consistent about which nodes are causing the error and I can''t find anything else going on at the same time on either the master or the agent that these errors happen. Here

We found out, the hard way, that version 1.7 of Facter adds facts for mounted linux file systems. This is nice for normal servers. For a server hosting Oracle not so good. We went from about 100 facts per server to well over 3,000 (our Oracle boxes have quite a few volumes mounted). Of course, this choked our ENC (Foreman) having this many facts pumped into it and required us to downgrade

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

I auto-upgraded puppet (as usual) using "yum upgrade -y", and now all agents are getting error 400. # puppet --version 3.0.0 On agent (any!) # puppet agent --test Warning: Unable to fetch my node definition, but the agent run will continue: Warning: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not retrieve facts for build6.[censored]: Failed to find facts from PuppetDB at abyss.[censored]:8081:

Hi folks, I''m using this plugin https://github.com/ripienaar/facter-facts/tree/master/facts-dot-d and I can''t get a fact out of a simple shell script. YAML TXT JSON works well My little shell script testfact.sh looks like #!/bin/bash echo "TEST=NOT WORKING" made it executable chmod +x testfact.sh made a puppet agent -t to read the new fact BUT $facter --puppet

I''ve added some custom facts to my Puppet setup but they aren''t being displayed by facter. I''ve tested them and they work correctly when run manually (and I''ve also tried a number of those listed on the wiki) but they aren''t included in facter''s output. I am using the default settings for factdest and factpath and the facts are being copied

Hi, I need to use the output of a script to set the value of a variable. I understand the only way to do this is to use a custom Facter fact. However, this script will only run when (naturally) it''s been installed, which is something Puppet takes care of. Conf files, which I would very much like to be able to install as part of the same run depend on the variable being set. So, it

We''re running puppet 2.7.11 and facter 1.6.1. We''re at a point where we need to start having some custom facts for our environment but we''re not sure the best way to go around it, so I''m looking for feedback from the community. I''ve setup custom facts with facter now and have successfully polled these and also proven that the puppet clients have

Hello! I''ve been trying to use facts from Facter in a custom function. I''ve been following Matthew''s entry in the wiki (http://www.reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/WritingYourOwnFunctions). What i''m seeing is that Facter[''fqdn''].value is always returning the fqdn of the puppetmaster host. I was expecting the fqdn of the client host.

Hi, i''ve set up my puppet on several clients and today i noticed that the facts are loaded twice by the clients. I took strace to get the list of loaded fact file and i found that puppet seems to load the same fact files twice: chdir("/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter") = 0 open(".", O_RDONLY|O_NONBLOCK|O_DIRECTORY|O_CLOEXEC) = 6 info: Loading facts in vserver

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Hello, I read that there is several problems about custom facts on this list. However, none is serving my task exactly so I start another. (Topic »custom facts in legacy puppet 0.24.[89]« is the might be the same issue but that gets no answer.) My problem is that I have to serve clients with different versions of puppet. The systems running ubuntu

Hi I''m trying to add extra facts to facter. The puppetd is running on Debian Etch Amd64 as Xen 3.1 guest. I''ve follow the Wiki on adding the facts. First I used relative path in the manifest and added "factsync=true" in client''s puppetd.conf. And then tested it with "puppetd -vt". But no matter what i tried, this error came: File paths must be fully
