[Puppet Users] To namespace, or not to namespace, that is the question

2016-02-18 Thread Micah Anderson
Hello, puppet users Reviewing a friend's puppet module, puppet-lint shows he didn't use the explicit namespace on variables. He told me that he used the Style Guide[1] and the Beginner's Guide to Modules[2] which are a little unclear about the right way to do this, so I wanted to write to clari

[Puppet Users] using exit code from a command in a provider without causing puppet to fail

2013-02-21 Thread Micah Anderson
Hi, I've made some changes to the vcsrepo module[0] provider. It all works fine, but I'm trying to improve it to be more in-line with how the original module works. The original module uses 'optional_commands'[1] to define the 'git' command and then when the provider needs to do something with gi

[Puppet Users] changing the default key length and hash

2011-05-19 Thread Micah Anderson
Hi all, I would like to start a discussion about changing the default key length From 1024 bits to 2048, and am interested to know if this might cause any issues for people. puppet.conf(5) says that the keylength parameter defaults to 1024 bits for new RSA keys. There are many reasons why 1024

[Puppet Users] RFC: erronously disabling apt-listchanges - #5604

2011-01-25 Thread Micah Anderson
Hi all, It seems that an isolated group of us has come to a mini-consensus about #5604, but I wanted to post to the list to get some wider discussion. As detailed in #5604, the puppet apt provider mysteriously, and rather aggressively, disables apt-listchanges using an environment variable. This

Interestingly, I decided to try and switch from passenger to nginx to see if that changed anything, and behold! Everything is working as it should. So, something is strange with 2.6.2 and passenger, because I was running a perfectly functional passenger setup with 0.25.5, and the only thing I ch
