hello world. I found the learning puppet site so I thought that would be a good place to start.
I downloaded the vm. I was able to import it into virtualbox. But then it hung during bootup. So I used vagrant to vagrant up a clean precise64 box. I did apt-get install puppet apt-get got me this: vagrant@precise64:~$ vagrant@precise64:~$ puppet --version 2.7.11 vagrant@precise64:~$ vagrant@precise64:~$ which puppet /usr/bin/puppet vagrant@precise64:~$ vagrant@precise64:~$ aptitude search puppet p etherpuppet p etherpuppet:i386 p mcollective-plugins-puppetca p mcollective-plugins-puppetd p mcollective-plugins-puppetral i puppet i A puppet-common p puppet-el p puppet-lint p puppet-testsuite p puppetmaster p puppetmaster-common p puppetmaster-passenger p vim-puppet vagrant@precise64:~$ vagrant@precise64:~$ Then I tried the first command in learning puppet: puppet resource service I saw a screen full of warnings like this 1: warning: Service network-interface-container found in both debian and upstart; skipping the upstart version Then I saw an error at the end: Could not run: Execution of '/sbin/status wait-for-state' returned 1: status: Unknown parameter: WAITER I tried a reboot to see if that helped. Reboot did not help. I'm looking for clues on how to get puppet up in a clean ubuntu 12.04 virtual box. If I need to steer clear of Vagrant to make puppet work, that is a non-starter for us. We had planned to do a lot of mixing of Vagrant and puppet. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
