I face the same problem when trying the package type class apache { package { ["apache"] : ensure => latest, } }
err: //apache/Package[apache]/ensure: change from purged to latest failed: Could not update: Execution of '/usr/bin/apt-get -q -y -o DPkg::Options::=--force-confold install apache' returned 100: E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock - open (13: Permission denied) E: Unable to lock the administration directory (/var/lib/dpkg/), are you root? at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:28 It asks me for root privileges.. Isnt there anyother way other than editing sudoers file on every node??? and I also tried with timeout => "-1" in exec which resulted in the same error. thank you everyone, bhaskar. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
