Hi .*, with the first puppet run on a freshly installed system all custom types and providers a synced. As you can see from the output for some reason puppet tries to load the providers before the types and therefore the custom provider loads throw an error.

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).

I''m running into a weird issue with a custom package provider for PEAR. I''m using the provider I found here<https://raw.github.com/gist/305778/13f46dea6eba07e38778d7159644b4210ebe7bbe/pear.rb>and the provider itself works fine.

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.

Hallo, I''m developing a custom function that is exhibiting some odd behavior, so I would like to debug it. How do I load it in the ruby shell in a way that lets me execute it?

Hi! I''ve spent quite a while before I understood that for Puppet to see changes in custom functions'' code Puppetmaster needs to be restarted.

Nagios support "custom object variables" (http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagioscore/3/en/customobjectvars.html) buy prefixing them with an underscore: define host{ host_name linuxserver _mac_address 00:06:5B:A6:AD:AA _rack_number R32 } However, I can''t determine how to use these with puppet nagios resources. I''m assuming they aren''t supported, but

hi, Just thinking how i could manage ldap server with puppet, using dynamic configuration. I would follow the next step : In the manifest : install required packages for ldap server doing a ''site specific'' basic configuration, meaning pushing a custon /etc/<ldapbasedir>/slapd.d develop some ldap type, to tweak online the ldap server. I think this would only be used

Morning all I''m working on converting some of my NetApp providers to prefetch/flush style to try and optimize performance. I''ve hit an issue on my Netapp_user provider, around handling resource creation versus resource modification? What''s the easiest way to differentiate? Current code is here:

I have written a custom puppet fact using a ruby script. It is very simple - it just adds a string to a fact. However I have written a module but it appears to me that the custom fact has been applied to all my machines without me specifying any node definitions. When I run a puppet agent --test --noop, I see the custom fact appear in /var/lib/puppet/lib/facter. Info: Loading facts in

Hi all, I use openldap and it''s newer slapd.d style of housing the configuration (as opposed to /etc/openldap/slapd.conf ). As such, to modify the config, the database itself, I''d prefer to use ldapmodify and ldapadd commands.
