Hey everyone, I''m trying to figure out how to manage my /etc/fstab with puppet on all my servers. Does anybody have an idea for me how to do? I tried it with augeas but I didn''t like the results I got so far... here is what I''ve tried: define conf ( $id = "01", $spec = " ", $file = " ", $vfstype = "

Hi, I am new to Ruby ERB and inline_template. Can anyone spot what''s wrong with this inline_template? $moddedContent = inline_template("<%= puts gets(nil).gsub(/one two three/,\"\") /tmp/blah %>") exec { "/bin/echo ''${moddedContent}'' > /tmp/blah" : } When I try to apply it, I

Last problem I had involved changing one character in my configuration scripts. Really easy once someone showed me what was wrong. Well I think this issue is just the same. The moment I used apt to install the Xen kernal and tools I lost internet connectivity. I have been managing because I can restore connectivity be deleting the bridge mpower@dodtsair:~$ sudo ifdown eth0

Hi, I''m using puppet 2.7.3 on RHEL/CentOS and I have an issue which is now a big blocking issue within my environment. What I''m trying to accomplish wit puppet is a create a mountpoint, mount a filesystem on it and install an application on that filesystems are set proper user/ group and permissions on it, but it fails big time. The issues I currently run into are about 3

I''m a first time user that just installed Puppet 3.1.0 over the weekend and hit a road block that I can''t seem to get across. I have a Linux master (Mageia 2) and two Windows 7 clients. I was able to get basic recipes working by putting the resources directly in the node definitions. Now I''m trying to move to the next step and start using classes. I am *not*

I''m running Puppet 2.7.1 on the master as well as the agent and just received a new error which doesn''t actually reference a module or a file, so I''m somewhat stuck as to how to debug this. Any pointers? The error is err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Could not intern from pson: Could not convert from pson: Could not find relationship target

If I do something like the following: class blah { File { mode => 111 } file { "/cheese": } } Will the File override stay within the class or break outside? Also, if I then do: class moo inherits blah { File { owner => bob } file { "/bobsfile": } } What will happen? Thanks, Trevor _______________________________________________ Puppet-users mailing

Ok, given the statement on the web page about unlesssystemuser under Resources ( http://reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/documentation/typedocs.html#resources), I assume that users can be purged. However, when I attempt to do this with resources { user: purge => true, noop => true } and what I get is: err: Found a bug: private method ''split'' called for nil:NilClass.

I''ve seen a couple of instances where a service resource has failed with an error because it''s been evaluated before its corresponding package is installed. I can fix this by adding an explicit require to the service resource, or by just running puppet again, but I thought that there would be an implicit or automatic require from a service object to the associate service

I''ve been reading the Docs on this, and its not very clear. I want to have a parameterized class that takes arrays and objects as parameters. I''m using puppet 2.6.16. I define a hostclass like this: hostclass :test, :arguments => { :param1 => "blah" } do end I call from Puppet DSL: class {"test": } I get this as an error: err: Could not

Hi, everyone -- I downloaded puppet and have been playing with it. I''m using the RPM''s for RHE4 created by David (mentioned on the install page: http://people.redhat.com/dlutter/yum/rhel4/) with RHE''s ruby 1.8.1-7: ruby-1.8.1-7.EL4.8 ruby-libs-1.8.1-7.EL4.8 ruby-devel-1.8.1-7.EL4.8 I''m sure this is an easy one; all the same, I''m stumped. Please

I am getting a error and do not understand why it is failing. There output is below puppet apply /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/authconfig/tests/init.pp - vvvvvv --noop --debug info: Loading facts in iptables info: Loading facts in serve info: Loading facts in serve info: Loading facts in iptables debug: Executing ''cd /etc/puppetlabs/puppet && git rev-parse HEAD'' debug:

Dear puppet wizards, http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_defined_types.html does not suggest to me that nested parametrized defines would be forbidden, hence I expected the following code to work: add_to_ssh_authorized_keys.pp: -------- define a::ssh_keys::add_to_ssh_authorized_keys($homebasedir="/home", $targetuser="root", $keyowner, $keyownername,

Hi all, I''d like to add a several directories and I can''t seem to do it with a single "file" directive. Say /home/jeff exists and I want to add /home/jeff/src/my/dir/path I tried: file { "/home/jeff/src/my/dir/path": path => "/home/jeff/src/my/dir/path", mode => 0755, owner => jeff, group => jeff, ensure =>

Hi, I want to validate my puppet manifests before I check them into source control. I just want to make sure that the manifest syntaxes are legal, not to do any more complex testing - the checkin may be on my laptop and not on the system that the manifests may be intended to run on. Ideally I''d be able to do this from ruby code - and I did try to instantiate some classes and override

Hi, I''m trying to program custom type for managing Couchbase buckets. Problem is that every RW operation to Couchbase cluster (creating, deleting, resizing bucket) requires admin privileges (username/password). Do you have any suggestion how should I pass the username/password to provider? If I make it a param, then every resource of type ''couchbucket'' will need to

Hey all, I am trying to get a modified hostname (converting "blah-1234567" to "1234567") to use in my manifests and templates. I have it working for templates by using Ruby (*<%= hostname.split(''-'').pop.downcase %>*) but I haven''t been able to use it in manifests because they don''t process ERB. The way I see it I could do one of two

I would like the R console to wrap lines at 80 cols. It does not do so, even though I have used the Rgui Configuration Editor to set the Console cols at 80 and the Pager cols at 80. Please tell me how to set it up so I have word wrap. Just to be clear: in older/other R versions, console input is wrapped at 80 cols and so you have something that looks like > blah blah blah blah blah blah blah

Greetings! I am just now learning to use R for my dissertation project. I need to manipulate a lot of text and numeric data. I created a data frame that has 7 columns and 127 unique rows. Now I need to replicate each line 6 times and then later change values in the first 2 columns. I am trying to figure out how to accomplish this. I think that I need to use rep(my.df, each=6) but it does

I have the class below to export host entries. However I wish to override the entry for my host to 127.0.0.1 So for all of the hosts other than foo.bar.com I would like them to have the real IP address but for foo.bar.com I would like to just have the loopback host entry. 2.6.2 doesn''t allow multiple tags and if I put in another entry for localhost there is a collision. Is there any
