Hi, Puppet 3.1 now uses YARD to generate its API documentation. Is anybody aware of the possibility to generate nice YARD docs for a given module path, replacing the default RDOC-style site from "puppet doc --modulepath ..."? Could the YARD Template from Puppet 3.1 be used for this? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users"

Hello, So, after learning ruby on rails and building a great app on my local machine, I need to find a host, deploy, and of course maintain a (staging and) production environment. This all seems very confusing, and I''d like to learn this in an organized manner, step by step: I''ve come across the names: Unicorn, nginx/apache, capistrano, Thin/mongrel, Engine Yard, EC2, etc.,

A search of this forum for "cloud" brought up a pretty anemic and mostly year or more old list of stuff. That was a bit of a surprise to me. I''m interested in getting opinions on the easiest way to deploy a Rails app to a well known (S3 or similar) "cloud" server. It should be something with little or no "installation" or "establishment" fees and

Hi, I have a controller method that makes at least 3 calls to external severs. The method is an oauth callback where intially I was (within that method) creating and saving a picture into rackspace, and then making two consecutive calls to an external service. After all that the end user sees a canvas that belongs to the external service application so my job is done. I have that in Heroku and

I want to deploy puppet with openldap for specific node configuration, but only for specific nodes, every other node (not in LDAP) should follow the ''default'' node definition. Is it possible to mix and match like this? As I try it I am getting err: Could not retrieve catalog: Could not find node ''myhostname'' instead. -- Mark Foster - Sr. Systems Engineer

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I am trying to create a PXE setup with floppy images for all needed utilities - for example, BIOS flash for various motherboards, disk diagnostic tools, memtest86+, etc. I've gotten memtest86+ to work (using the .bin), and some of the disk images work - however, some disk images will not boot. All of the images were pulled from working, bootable

Hi all, I'm looking for a solution to be able to back up to a Rackspace Cloud Files account from a CentOS server. I have set up Duplicity but have found out that the back-ups are in GPG-encrypted volumes. There are also GUI clients for Windows and Mac but they're not what I need. I'm looking for something like a command-line tool that will let me push directories on the server (via

I''m trying to run puppetmasterd the first time with --mkusers.

I currently have a dedicated server at ev1servers, but it''s getting rather antiquated (Redhat 9) and am looking to upgrade. I''m thinking about serverbeach.com - one of their CentOS servers. Anybody have any recommendations for dedicated servers on which to run Rails? Hopefully less than $200/month. Thanks! CSN __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Hey all, I''m very happy to announce that ActiveReload[1] has generously offered to sponsor a lighthouse[2] account for rspec. We''ll be moving ticket tracking there. We''ve already got the account set up and will soon make it public. We''re also going to be getting a sponsored slice at Engine Yard[3] to host source control, which will be either mercurial or git

I am looking into alternatives for the initial cert sign for new puppet clients. We will have non-sysadmins kickstarting new hosts, and I am trying to minimize the time they have to wait for a cert sign while maintaining at least a marginally sane level of security. My question is this: does the puppetmaster check that a new cert request for host A (csr with subject "cn=A.mydomain") is

I just installed Yard latest and am trying out the yard server with yard server --gems. I get a nice list of all my installed gems pretty much immediately, but no matter which one I click on, I get a spinny thing that won''t go away, saying that [gem name] is being processed. I haven''t yet seen a finished documentation page. Is this normal? Walter -- You received this

This is sort of Rails-related :) I recently applied for a job at Engine Yard after meeting the staff at RailsConf 2009. EY as you probably know is one of the premiere hosting companies for Rails. The told me to "send them something that would get me hired". After slaving over my resume and putting extra effort into my cover letter (http://tr.im/npLV) I finished yesterday a series of 1

Heroku support works so slowly I want to ask community. 1)I have a problem with switching between my two heroku accounts on the same laptop. All of the commands execute from one of these, but I want to execute it from another.

Hi, I've successfully setup Asterisk on my local PC and can make call using Twinkle to the server. But, I cannot call to my Asterisk server at Rackspace. I have been trying several things to figure it out, no luck. My PC is behind NAT, so I've set that up in sip.conf (nat=yes). I can ping my Rackspace server so it seems to be Public-static IP. Anyway, I tried with setting externip,

I''m going through the 4th edition of the book _Agile Web Development in Rails_. One of the exercises involves automatically creating 100 orders.

Hello all, I developed an app using Rails 3.1 and uploaded it to heroku. When I typed rake db:migrate , I got the following error: Could not find a JavaScript runtime.

I wanna push my application straight from Github to Heroku. Everything goes through until it hits the installation of the gems. It can''t install the SQLite3 (local DB). I know Heroku doesn''t use SQLite but I didn''t expect this problem. The error messages recommended installing a version of SQLite3 (v1.3.6) which I did but it keeps on complaining :(. Any workaround?
