Hi guys, Currently the windows package provider does not support versions (like ensure => 1.2.3). Even though most packages set a DisplayVersion key in the registry - so the version is often available. Now I need to upgrade my puppet clients from v3.1.1 to v3.2.3-rc1 (to get facts.d support on windows) - and I was wondering if any of you had a suggestion as to how to handle it, until

Hello, I have a fresh install of puppet 3.2.3. on windows 8.

As some before me on the group, I have a problem getting the Chocolatey provider to work on Windows. I downloaded it from Github and placed it in /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/chocolatey. (I am running Puppet Enterprise 2.7.19). On a Windows 8 client, I have a very simple manifest: class install_notepadplusplus { if $::osfamily == ''windows { $pkg =

Hello, Has anyone here had experience using Puppet (2.7 for now) to install Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 (or even 2012, for that matter) on Windows Server 2008?

Hello, I''ve got Package resource on my Windows machine that keeps creating itself even though the package has been properly installed.

Hello, Documentation mentions that Windows service resource provider "can start, stop, enable, and disable services". Is it possible to create (register) a service using this provider?

Hello, I am in the process of "trying out" Puppet, and so far, it is going really well, and I can see a clear line of how we can use it internally. I do have one question though with regard to the using the onlyif parameter of the exec command (as per here http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#exec). Ideally, what I would like to do is to only run a PowerShell exec

Hello List, I´ve tried to switch from md5 checksum to md5lite within all my configuration to spare a few cpu cycles on my master, but it didn´t work at all :-( Then I´ve found out about bug #13199, but the bugs lists only 2.7x as affected. can anybody confirm this issue on 3.x? funny that the bug isn´t anywhere on the roadmap at all .... I´d suggest to remove mtime/md5lite from the

I noticed that a number of my Windows hosts had stopped dialing in, and upon closer inspection I found that Puppet was crashing in Ruby and wevtapi.dll. I can''t find any reference to this in the issue tracker, although I''ve got over a dozen occurrences in my environment, all with the same descriptions as below. I checked to see if the times were similar, in case the server

Ran into a problem with Facter on a Windows 2008 R2 system running on a proxmox server. Facter reports the machine as being physical. This is due to the WMI query used in the virtual.rb file is being return "Bochs" as the Manufacturer and Model. Adding an additional "When" statement to the Ruby file (virtual.rb) corrected the check coming back as physical. -- You

Hello: After upgrading to Puppet 3.2.3 I have noticed that the puppetmaster does not log the catalog compilation time like it did in 3.1.1 or before. This log line used to look like: "myserver puppet-master[19002]: Compiled catalog for myhost in environment production in 1.01 seconds" Even if I change the logging level to debug in the rack config I do not see this line. Anyone

Hi all, I have been working on a configuration of a Masterless configuration on Windows. I am able to get individual jobs to run like: puppet apply <path to my puppet .pp file> However, I would like to spin up the Vagrant box off a base VM, and have a puppet manifest file in a location where puppet knows to look and provision based off that file. The obvious place seems to be

Hello, I''m running Puppet agent stand-alone on Windows. I got data-in-modules working. However, no matter what I put into the module hiera.yaml, I can only override the defaults from common.yaml by osfamily (and not, e.g., by environment). In the setup below the following command outputs: >puppet apply --binder -e "notice lookup (''my_key'')"

Hi All, I currently have two puppet masters which are "load balanced" with round robin DNS (one is also the CA). I''m using dns_alt_names to let them each answer to puppet.my.domain.com For the past year this has been fine. Today I''m trying to add a third & while all my Linux clients seem happy with the new arrangement, my smaller number of FreeBSD9 systems fail

tl;dr: Windows manages permissions in a way that doesn''t always translate well to mode. We''re putting together a solution for this. Jump in the discussion. I wanted to get this conversation started. We''ve put a lot of thought into how the model should look and focused on ease of use up to more advanced scenarios. However I don''t feel that what we have is
