The logs states that "'/sbin/service mysqld start' returned 1" it
looks like the mysqld package has not been installed.
AFAIK, and please correct me if I am wrong, puppet will execute your
code in a random way.
This is why you need to force its logic by doing something like:
package { $pgapps: ensure => installed }
service { postgresql:
name => postgresql,
enable => true,
ensure => running,
require => Package["$pgapps"]
}
This way you will make sure to have the package installed before
running the service.
You may need to do some fiddling with the "" as I am not too sure if
you need to put them or not but the idea is there anyway...
