Re: [Puppet Users] MSI Package Provider and Install_options

Nan, Thanks for the reply. That's certainly what the code and doc string indicate. However, I think that I may have encountered a Puppet bug, but I don't know enough Ruby to troubleshoot much. Here's my new resource: package { "my_problematic_package.msi": ensure => present,

I figured it out, pluginsync = true needs to be added to puppet.conf [main] on both master and client. Also good to note, if the output of the custom fact script is empty, the fact will not appear at all. On Monday, September 24, 2012 12:35:39 PM UTC-7, Justin Ryan wrote: > > also, as suggested

I've done it with hashes as Trevor suggests. I do it to pass values to templates, what's your use case? basically my class looks like this: class myclass( $myhash => {}) { ... } and I use the class like this: myclass { "myclass" : myhash => { "mykey" => "myvalue" }, } works like a charm.

[Puppet Users] Re: require file/package not managed by puppet

if the package is in under the management of the system's package manager it should not matter whether it is puppet-"managed". puppet checks for the presence of the package in the system,and then fails if it's not there and can't install it. and you can always go with an exec{} resource, which
