[Puppet Users] Re: Custom function help: works locally, "wrong header line format" error on master

I ended up creating workaround; Instead of using the ec2 api in the function, I am using it elsewhere to write a file, and my custom function reads this file as a string. I still don't know why the parser chokes when trying to iterate a collection. I tried updating the master and agent to 3.1.1

Yeah they switched to systemd on fedora so the init scripts went away (finally!) They also renamed the "service" to puppetagent Try this. systemctl start puppetagent On 21 May 2013 08:36, Tom Poulton wrote: > Wait... spoke too soon: > > *Error: Could not start Service[puppet]: Execution of '/sb

tmpwatch/tmpreaper (for Ubuntu) is first thing I though about too - but the vagn has a good point about better keeping the latest report from each server, which justifies using his script. On Sunday, 3 February 2013 04:17:30 UTC+11, Ken Barber wrote: > > tmpwatch is also a good approach: > http

It seems to me that you will be relinquishing puppet's ability to maintain the content of the file by doing this. If that's acceptable, use the replace parameter to only have puppet maintain the initial config and allow the file to be changed outside puppet moving forward. If that's not acceptab

[Puppet Users] Re: hiera-gpg and 400 error

On puppet version 3.0.0 there was a typo in the hiera.yaml file that prevented the gpg backend from loading so the data was never found. If I remember right I think "backends" was just "backend". Hiera silently failed back to loading just yaml without saying anything and gpg was never loaded.

After some more digging, I found that the logic of Hash.merge is reversed with the logic of DeepHash.merge, so to get the expected results, the hiera/backend.rb must swap its hashes When you change the merge_answer in hiera/backand.rb from: def merge_answer(left,right) case Config[:merg

You should really build packages of java/tomcat with fpm. It will save you so much time and hassle in the end. Want different versions of the same package you just have to name them with the package version - no problem. Let's assume that extract the java distribution in a directory named java-$(
