Hi Gerdo, You are on the right track using a define but the problem is one of scope. The version parameter for your define will only get set once in your php::params class because classes are almost singletons in puppet (as in they can exist only once for a node no matter how many times you call them). You will have to set the configure parameters inside your define which will be ugly I know but there isn't any other way around it. I haven't used them but inline templates may help alleviate the ugliness. I would also recommend splitting your define out into a separate file so it's easier to maintain.
Hope that helps. Pete. On 20 February 2013 09:04, <ge...@timble.net> wrote: > Hi, > > I'm working on a module and run into an issue. I would like to install > multiple PHP versions from source.
