[Puppet Users] Re: Puppet fails to run if ruby1.8 is not installed.

2014-03-31 Thread Michael O7;Dea
I ran into the same issue this weekend, and discovered that the Amazon yum repo's latest Puppet package (2.7.25) has ruby1.8 "shebang'd". With that puppet release, you can have ruby2.0 on the system as the default and still have puppet running correctly. If your hosts are running the puppet ag

[Puppet Users] Yumhelper.py fails with exceptions.indexError on Python 2.7 hosts

2014-03-28 Thread Michael O7;Dea
In my Amazon Linux environment, I have a couple of images on which I've changed the default python installation from 2.6 to 2.7. These hosts have been running fine for a couple of months, but in the past couple of days I've discovered they've developed an error when running Puppet catalogs. T

[Puppet Users] Pip provider fails on RedHat osfamily when pip not installed via RPM (Could not locate the pip command)

2013-06-19 Thread Michael O7;Dea
In resolving bug 15980, the pip package provider was changed to recognize the RedHat osfamily fact and use the executable name "pip-python" in those environments. This does not take into account environments where pip has been installed via easy_install or by custom rpm providers. In those en

[Puppet Users] Puppet 3.1.1 Windows crashes

2013-06-06 Thread Michael O7;Dea
I noticed that a number of my Windows hosts had stopped dialing in, and upon closer inspection I found that Puppet was crashing in Ruby and wevtapi.dll. I can't find any reference to this in the issue tracker, although I've got over a dozen occurrences in my environment, all with the same desc

Oops nevermind. The host I sampled in the logs still was running the 2.7.18 Puppet client. I re-checked a host running 3.1.1 and it does appear to be varying it's runs somewhat. Need to retire all those puppet 2.7 hosts! On Friday, May 24, 2013 9:47:49 AM UTC-4, Michael O'Dea wr

[Puppet Users] Example of a working runinterval + splay configuration?

I have a substantial number of Windows hosts running puppet 3.1.1 with the following in their puppet.conf: runinterval = 1800 > splay = true > splaylimit = 900 However in checking puppet logs, I'm finding that these hosts are dialing in at 30 minute intervals +/- 5-10 seconds. Can someone pro

I see this error all the time when I forget to sudo a puppet run. My only guess is that puppet agent is being run twice, once as root and once as ubuntu, and you're seeing the results of the second run. I'm not familiar with the node_aws stuff however, I've worked up userdata profiles to do th

Hopefully not thread hijacking, hope my issue is the same. Strangely, I had this problem last week and then resolved it when I made a few more changes to the MSI. The issue has just now returned for me, and I'm not clear how my latest changes (from a debug mode package to a release package) w
