Hi all I've created RPM and DEB packages for the Puppet Dashboard 1.0.0rc1. These are available via APT and Yum repositories hosted by Puppet Labs. These are "first release" packages and I am by no means a packaging expert with either DEBs or RPMs so any feedback or comments are welcomed. I'll continue to update the packages as updates to the Dashboard are released.
Overall instructions for installing and running the Dashboard can be found at: http://github.com/reductivelabs/puppet-dashboard 1. Get DEB Packages via APT a. Add the following to your /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb http://apt.puppetlabs.com/ubuntu lucid main deb-src http://apt.puppetlabs.com/ubuntu lucid main b. Add the Puppet Labs repository key to APT (the package is signed with this key also). $ gpg --recv-key 8347A27F $ gpg -a --export 8347A27F | sudo apt-key add - c. Run apt-get update $ sudo apt-get update d. Install Puppet Dashboard $ sudo apt-get install puppet-dashboard The Dashboard will be installed in /usr/share/puppet-dashboard and you run the server from here or create a Passenger configuration. 2. Get RPM packages via Yum a. Create a Yum repo entry for Puppet Labs $ vi /etc/yum.repos.d/puppetlabs.repo [puppetlabs] name=Puppet Labs Packages baseurl=http://yum.puppetlabs.com/base/ enabled=1 gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=http://yum.puppetlabs.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-reductive b. Install via yum $ sudo yum install puppet-dashboard You will be prompted to install the Puppet Labs release key as part of the installation process and the RPM packages are signed with that key. The Dashboard will be installed in /usr/share/puppet-dashboard and you run the server from here or create a Passenger configuration.
