Hi,
I am trying to install msi package in the puppet-agents using "mco puppet
runonce -I <hostname>" (*pushing* the configuration) from puppet master.
Even though the package is installed and all the files are copied properly
but, it is not shown in "Add/Remove Program" or is not shown the shortcuts
in all programs.
I am using the following configuration to install the msi file.
###########################################################################
package { "Python PreReqs":
require => Exec['CopyPythonPreReq'], #required msi file tobe copied
ensure => '2.4.23', # ensure => created
source => 'C:\PuppetSWT\Python PreReqs 2.4.23.msi',
}
###########################################################################
Using the same configuration, I can *pull* the configuration from
puppet-agent (using "puppet agent -t") and the msi package is installing
successfully with registering in "Add/Remove Programs" and creating
shortcuts.
Again, I tried with another option by using the "exec" resource type to
install the msi package.
###########################################################################
exec { 'Python PreReqs':
path => 'C:\Windows\System32',
command => 'cmd /c "start "" /wait msiexec.exe /a \"C:\PuppetSWT\Python
PreReqs 2.4.23.msi\" /qn /lv \"C:\PuppetSWT\PythonPreReqs.log\""',
require => Exec['CopyPythonPreReq'],
}
###########################################################################
But, with the same option using,
· *1. **"puppet agent -t" (pulling configuration) from puppet agent:*
msi
package is installed with registering in "Add/Remove Programs" in the
control panel.
· *2. **"mco puppet" (pushing configuration) from puppet master:* msi
package is installed without registering in "Add/Remove Programs" in the
control panel.
So, what is missing in the configuration to install the msi package showing
the details in "Add/Remove Programs" in the control panel.
Thanks
Amrit
