Hi Walter, [ CCing the augeas-devel list, as that's the best place for Augeas lens problems and help ]

Here's what I have now: For debugging, I'd strongly recommend creating a test file, which you can do this simply with your existing Zabbix config. I've created a sample here that uses the head -n25 output you pasted - I suggest you fill in the rest: https://gist.github.com/1662040 Store it in lenses/tests/test_zabbix_agent.aug and then you can run: augparse -I lenses/ lenses/tests/test_zabbix_agent.aug (with your new lens under the lenses directory) No output means the lens has checked out fine and the output tree (in the bottom half of the test) matches the input file at the top. > And the augeas output (all empty): > == > [/etc/puppet] # augparse /usr/share/augeas/lenses/contrib/zabbix_agent.aug > [/etc/puppet] # augtool -e ls /files/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf > == Since the output of head -n25 works perfectly for me, I suspect the problem might be parsing something in the remainder of the file. Try running "print /augeas//error" from within augtool and see if you get /files/etc/zabbix/zabbix_agentd.conf listed. This wiki page explains how to parse the parse errors: http://augeas.net/page/Tracking_down_errors There are some other useful tutorials about creating lenses, the ambiguity problems you might hit and other subjects on the wiki: http://augeas.net/page/Main_Page If you manage to solve it, please do consider sending your new lens (and accompanying test) upstream to the augeas-devel list, we'd love to include it. Hope that helps. -- Dominic Cleal Red Hat Consulting m: +44 (0)7817 878113 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
