Thank you very much John, to explain that. My module is working now. But what I tried was to have a list of user outside of the module. I would like to seperate the values of the user from the module. Have you got a hint to do that for me? Best regards, Andreas -- You received this message

It's somewhat disappointing that puppet labs expresses commercialism in such a nasty way, just breaking the free stuff and giving you an option to pay for it... will try on a different system and then switch to Chef. Cheers, Piotr W dniu czwartek, 25 lipca 2013 17:35:10 UTC+1 użytkownik Piotr J

Hi Klavs, Thanks, I'll think about that. An API that could be used for notifications and such was already on my mind. Unfortunately I don't think I can currently ask PuppetDB for the statistics you mention but perhaps that can be added to PuppetDB. As far as notifying about failed runs through

Lein is probably trying to retrieve clojure/java related jars from the internet. You should probably look at setting up your server to utilise a proxy server and have Lein use that, its going to be far easier than trying to download everything manually, I assure you. ken. On Wed, Aug 7, 2013 at 1

Assuming all the dns servers are getting the same config, We break big chunks like that out into their own modules. So: node dns1.myco.com { include myco::dns } node web1.myco.com { include myco::web } If the servers have different configs, you can make myco::dns::common, myco::dns::this m

The syntax appears to be correct, from what I see. Being that this Apache module came from PuppetLabs, I think it is safe to assume that the module is robust. I would try to try enable full debugging on both the agent and the master. Also, on the agent, try to walk through the installation of

You cannot use ruby code in Puppet directly, which is why this isn't working for you. To do this you would need to write a "Puppet Function" as documented at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/custom_functions.html. This would then let you do something like: if exists('/file') { Functions always
