Master: RHEL6 running Puppet 3.2.2 Node: Windows 7 x64 Running Puppet 3.2.3
I have the following rule defined on my Puppet master to push Python to client workstations: package { 'Python 2.7.5 (64-bit)': ensure => installed, source => '\\server\share\Puppet\win64\Python\python-2.7.5.amd64.msi', install_options => [{ 'INSTALLDIR' => 'C:\Python27' },], require => [Package['MinGW-W64 version 4.5.3'], Package['Cygwin version 1.7.15']], } On the client, Python has already been installed via a run of: "puppet agent --test". Here is the output of a manual agent execution on the Windows 7 node in question: C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin>puppet agent --test --trace Info: Retrieving plugin Info: Caching catalog for <hostname> Info: Applying configuration version '1374075302' Notice: /Stage[main]/Win7_user::Restart/Exec[restart_agent_flag]/returns: executed successfully Notice: Finished catalog run in 6.51 seconds As you can see, it's up-to-date. 'Python 2.7.5 (64-bit)' is in my list of installed programs. Where I run into problems is when the Puppet service kicks off. For some reason it tried to install Python again, and then fails with the mysterious INT 24 error. In previous reports of INT 24 that I've seen, it had to do with invalid declaration of the source attribute, which doesn't appear to be a problem here. Anyways, here is what is in Windows Event Viewer for the Puppet service: MsiInstaller - Information 1040: Beginning a Windows Installer transaction: \\<server>\share\Puppet\win64\Python\python-2.7.5.amd64.msi. Client Process Id: 7896. MsiInstaller - Information 1042 Ending a Windows Installer transaction: \\astdfs.ast.lmco.com\Data\ses\GOESR_SW_ENG\goesr01\Tools\Puppet\win64\Python\python-2.7.5.amd64.msi. Client Process Id: 7896. Puppet - Error 3 Failed to install: Fail on INT 24. /Stage[main]/Win7_user/Package[Python 2.7.5 (64-bit)]/ensure: change from absent to present failed: Failed to install: Fail on INT 24. What's not clear to me, is why is it trying to install again? It's already in the list of installed programs, and manual invocations of the agent, detect it's there. I've tried rebooting the machine, but it makes no difference. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
