Hello, Puppet-3.6 here, although I think this has been bothering me since 3.4 or 3.5. (Waiting on PUP-3190 for 3.7). I have this seemingly innocuous class: -8<-- class ldap::slapd::nssov { include ldap::slapd::rfc2307bis # FIXM

[Puppet Users] Testing with rspec-puppet and ripienaar/module_data

Hi all, I have a module I'm trying to convert from params.pp to ripienaar/module_data. I've got to the point where I can run Puppet with: puppet apply --debug --noop --hiera_config spec/fixtures/hiera/hiera.yaml --modulepath spec/fixtures/modules -e 'include ...' and can see from the hier

Re: [Puppet Users] Managing multiple hosts in a single service

Using puppetdbquery (https://github.com/dalen/puppet-puppetdbquery), you could do something like this in your manifests - $hosts = query_nodes('Class[memcached]', hostname) And then loop through this in your template - <% @hosts.sort.each do |host| -%><%= host %>:<%= @memcached_port %> <% end -

Re: [Puppet Users] Install MCollective -- What are the basic components?

Generally you'll want the server on all of your hosts - assuming you want to be able to talk to them with mco as well. The client is only needed from the host you want to do the controlling from (e.g. your puppetmaster to request puppet runs from your nodes) and the middleware can be anywhere. I us

[Puppet Users] Ruby, YAML & Hiera data

Hi, It's probably best for you to not ask why we're doing the following, but here's what we're trying to achieve: We'd like to programmatically edit our Hiera data, and we're using the YAML backend. I can successfully load the correct YAML file and make the changes we require. However, we've hi

[Puppet Users] Re: Checking a variable is not 'undef'

As noted at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_datatypes.html#undef, "When used as a boolean, undef is false." So you can definitely use an if statement that way. On Friday, 11 July 2014 10:38:41 UTC-4, Chris Cowley wrote: > > OK, so what it the recommended way to do this?

Re: [Puppet Users] Reduce Duplicated File Attributes failure

You need to tell puppet what file you would like those attributes set. Probably file { '/etc/jboss.conf': ensure => 'present', owner => 'jboss', group => 'jboss', mode => '0755'. } which would create a blank file at /etc/jboss.conf. If you need to control the contents of t
