So on one of my hosts but not at least one other, I'm getting this: [root@beta01 /]# sudo puppetd -tv info: Caching catalog for beta01.c44031.blueboxgrid.com info: /Stage[main]/Ruby/Tidy[/etc/profile.d/rvm.sh]: File does not exist info: Applying configuration version '1305353595' notice: /Stage[main]/Puppet/Cron[puppet run cron]/ensure: created "-":6: bad hour errors in crontab file, can't install.
Which is odd. They're both running centos packages for puppet 0.25.5-1.el5 I couldn't figure it out, so I ran strace, and found this: [pid 1872] write(3, "# HEADER: This file was autogenerated at Fri May 13 22:50:02 -0700 2011 by puppet.\n# HEADER: While it can still be managed manually, it is definitely not recommended.\n# HEADER: Note particularly that the comments starting with 'Puppet Name' should\n# HEADER: not be deleted, as doing so could cause duplicate cron jobs.\n# Puppet Name: puppet run cron\n* 1 1 * * * foo\n", 366) = 366 Which is equivalent to: # HEADER: This file was autogenerated at Fri May 13 22:50:02 -0700 2011 by puppet. # HEADER: While it can still be managed manually, it is definitely not recommended. # HEADER: Note particularly that the comments starting with 'Puppet Name' should # HEADER: not be deleted, as doing so could cause duplicate cron jobs. # Puppet Name: puppet run cron * 1 1 * * * foo That's one too many fields. Not that it should matter, but the cron was *very* simple by that time: cron { 'puppet run cron': command => "foo", user => root, hour => 1, minute => 1, } What's going on? -Robin -- http://singinst.org/ : Our last, best hope for a fantastic future.
