Hi All,
Weird issue I'm having with trying to install a package via 'package_method =>
yum' (cfengine version cfengine-community-3.1.2-1.centos5). So, this is my
stanza:
packages:
any::
"ntp"
package_policy => "add",
package_method => yum;
Then, when I run it on a host, I see this (via 'cf-agent -I'):
# cf-agent -f failsafe.cf && cf-agent -I
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:Setting up Install Process
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:No package ntp.conf available.
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:No package ntp.conf.rpmnew available.
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:No package ntp.conf.rpmsave available.
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:Nothing to do
Q:yum -y install ntp.* ...:
#
Now, those three files (ntp.conf, ntp.conf.rpmnew and ntp.conf.rpmsave) are
already in the /etc/ directory. But, why would it try to yum install files on
my filesystem? It should be trying to yum install them from my installed yum
repositories right? It's a bit odd. I can do, manually on the command line,
"yum -y install ntp.*" and it works just great. But, cfengine cannot do it
strangely enough.
Anyone have any idea of what I'm missing?
Thanks in advance!!
