Hello Puppet Users,
I am running into a weird issue when trying to execute an installer on
Ubuntu 10.04/12.04 machines. I am using Puppet 3.2.1, and 3.2.2
respectively from Puppet Labs repo.
This is the sample code:
class installpackage {
file { 'MyInstallerFile':
path => '/tmp/MyInstallerFile',
ensure => present,
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode => '777',
source => 'puppet:///extra_files/MyInstallerFile',
}
file { 'answer_file':
path => '/tmp/answer_file',
ensure => present,
owner => 'root',
group => 'root',
mode => '777',
source => 'puppet:///extra_file/answer_file',
}
exec { "install":
cwd => '/tmp',
command => '/tmp/MyInstallerFile --answer /tmp/answer_file',
logoutput => true,
require => File['MyInstallerFile', 'answer_file'],
}
}
The error I get is this (i.e. it can't find $HOME set):

I did notice that if I append "sudo" before the command I want to execute, it
works. Is there a more elegant solution?
Please advise.
