Hello all!
I am using open source puppet 3.0.1 on both the client and master. The
issue I am having is that I cannot get a simple custom fact to be
recognized in my manifest. Hopefully I am missing something.
I am trying to have a custom fact that will tell me whether the nsclient++
directory exists or not.
Here's the custom fact, which is located at
/etc/puppet/environments/windows/modules/nscp-test/lib/facter
Facter.add(:nsclient) do
setcode do
if File.exists?("c:/program files/nsclient++")
puts ''nsclient installed'
else
puts 'no such directory'
end
end
end
my init.pp is dead simple:
class nscp-test {
notify{$nsclient :}
}
Here's what happens when I run puppet agent --test on the client (windows
2003):
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application
Data\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\lib\facter>puppet agent --test
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts in C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Application
Data/PuppetLabs/puppet/var/lib/facter/nsclient.rb
no such directory
no such directory
Info: Caching catalog for <snipped>
Info: Applying configuration version '1360274145'
Notice: undef
Notice: /Stage[main]/Nscp-test/Notify[undef]/message: defined 'message' as
'undef'
Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.42 seconds
from the command line, facter --puppet nsclient works just fine.
So am I missing something dead simple, or what? This is my first time doing
custom facts.
Thanks,
Dan
