By the nature of the Puppet's language, resources must have a unique title and must have only one definition. Quoting http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/language_guide.html#resources: "The field before the colon is the resource’s title, which must be unique and can be used to refer to the resource in other parts of the Puppet configuration." > Code causing the error: > > /etc/puppet/modules/apache/manifests/init.pp > > class apache::install { > ... > package { [ "php5", "php5-cli", "php5-gd", "php5-imagick", "php5- > mysql", "phpmyadmin", "mysql-client" ]: > ensure => installed, > } The line above is just a shortcut to this something like this: package {"php5": .... } package {"php5-cli": .... } package {"php5-imagick": .... } So when Puppet compiles all your manifests, there can be only one php5-imagick, in your case. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
