Re: [Puppet Users] The quantum effect when loading classes

2011-05-20 Thread Denmat
Hi,

You should include the version number with your questions so we can narrow down 
answers :)

First thing I would do is grep through manifest and look for any calls to the 
classes in your module.

Also the syntax looks a bit odd to me. No doubt works but it is not the way 
puppet recommends. I would put the class inside your init.pp (like you said 
you've done now).

You can put some notifies in your module and see if you can get more debugging 
info. 

Apart from that I have nothing else to offer I'm afraid.

Cheers,
Den

clean on the server.
 
 Are you using Passenger?

That was the source of the issue

I had to restart http/puppetmaster for new autosign to take effect.

Re: [Puppet Users] changing the default key length and hash

2011-05-20 Thread Mark Stanislav
Hi Micah,

In short, I'm in agreement with you. With the CA which is defaulted to 5 years 
(not at all surprising) there's no doubt that soon (maybe 2.7 is a good time?) 
that 2048 key size should be used for at least the CA key, if not default for 
client key generation as well. Secondly, yes, I don't know why MD5 would be the 
hashing algorithm of choice in this case either.

As I recall last year, most major root CAs went to 2048 last year to not anger 
the NIST recommendation.

 puppet.conf(5) says that the keylength parameter defaults to 1024 bits
 for new RSA keys.
 
 There are many reasons why 1024bits is just not good enough now days:
 
 . many free software crypto tools are defaulting to 2048-bit keys now
 (e.g. OpenSSH, GnuPG)
 
 . NIST has recommended avoiding reliance on 1024-bit keys after the end
 of 2010
 
 you can compare other comparable standards at http://keylength.com/
 
 Considering that generated certificates are expected to be around for at
 least the lifetime of the server itself, setting a reasonable bit-length
 key from the beginning is pretty important, especially if the server
 might be expected to be around for some years from now…
 
 Not only is the default keylength for the CA 1024 bits, the default hash
 is MD5.
 
 The german BSI1 produces a yearly document[0] that defines which
 algorithms should be save for usage over the next five years. This
 document rules out MD5, SHA-1 and RIPEMD-160 for hashing and key sizes 
 1976 bits for RSA keys right now.
 
 Now that we are well beyond the NIST recommendation, this seems to be a
 bug, and I filed it as such[1]. However, I'm throwing this out there to
 see if this might be an issue for anyone, such as on older
 distributions.
 
 discuss!

And Puppet was able to execute it too (but see also below); that's how
it found that the exit status was 1.  Puppet expects scripts to follow
the Unix convention of exiting with status 0 when they are
successful.  Any other exit status indicates a failure of some kind.
When a command executed by a Puppet Exec exits with an error status,
the Exec fails.

I observe also, however, that the error message you report does not
appear to exactly match your Exec resource: the error message claims
to have run /usr/bin/start, whereas the exec gives the command as /usr/
bin/start.sh.  These are not equivalent, so I'm not sure what's going
on here.

 I realise that the config. for the new host I'm working on doesn't

 But I still don't have a grasp on why it's intermittent...

When the catlog is compiled successfully, does it actually contain the
Service['nslcd'] resource?  And in that case, does it indeed *not*
contain File['/etc/nslcd.conf']?  I would be very surprised if both
were so, and that would definitely constitute a bug.

My guess, however, is that one or more of the following is true:
1) Your node's facts are inconsistent from run to run; this would be
surprising for Facter's built-in facts, but it might arise from custom
facts you have added.
2) Your manifests use one of the few Puppet features that are
evaluation-order dependent.

The result could be either that sometimes your nss class gets
included when you thought it would not be, or that somtimes the class
declaring Service['nslcd'] is not included when you thought it would
be.

[Puppet Users] Re: custom function from .24.6 not working in 2.6 (from squeeze)

On May 19, 5:10 pm, Bill Anderson ucnt...@gmail.com wrote:
 I'm in the process of upgrading an existing installation from .24.x to 2.6.

 We seem to have a custom function that is throwing the error:
 err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
 private method `gsub' called for #Array:0x7fdcebf3bbf8 at
 /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/apache-php.pp:72

 Here is the function:
 
 # Checks if a file exists on the puppet maser
 Puppet::Parser::Functions::newfunction(:bbcom_file_exists, :type = :rvalue,
         :doc = Checks if the given file exists on the puppet master.) do
 |vals|
         ret = false

         vals.each do |file|
         # First convert our $puppet urls to local filesystems urls
         # We do this to allow the caller to use the same urls array
         # in other parts of the recipe.  
             file = file.gsub(puppet:///appconf/, /etc/cdir/config/)

                 # Now do the same for internal server files
             file = file.gsub(puppet:///files/, /etc/puppet/files/)

         if File.exists?(file)
                 ret = true
            break
         end
     end
         ret

 The function is used as a conditional: given a list of files puppet may be
 managing, if any of them exist on the server, then do this other thing (so
 far it usually means manage this other file too).

 Personally I'd love to be able to remove it as it seems clunky to me; but
 failing that if someone can point out why it is failing in 2.6 and how to
 fix it I would greatly appreciate it. I'm not much of a Ruby guy so while  I
 understand _what_ the error is telling me, fixing it is a different story.


It looks like at least one function argument is being received as an
array instead of as a string.  It may be that 0.24.x was flattening
that array into a series of individual arguments, whereas 2.6.x does
not.  If that's the case, then you may be able to fix the problem by
changing

vals.each do |file|

to

vals.flatten.each do |file|

Alternatively, you may be able to approach the problem on the manifest
side by passing multiple arguments instead of an array.


I agree that the function and the usage you describe is suspect.  It
is dicey whenever a manifest is conditional on anything other than
(ultimately) nodes' facts.  I don't see a good reason why the manifest
should not *know* whether any particular file is (supposed to be)
managed for a particular node.  Moreover, it's not safe to assume that
the presence of a file on the master implies that a corresponding file
is being / supposed to be managed for any particular node.

[Puppet Users] Including a class multiple times, with different variables

2011-05-20 Thread Bilco105
Hi,

I'm defining a class whose responsibility is to setup an application
folder, virtual host, init script and so forth for a rails
application. The class is defined as follows:

class rails($name, $environment)
  ## Include General Software
  require nginx
  require mysql

  ## Setup application directories
  File { [/home/$app, /home/$app/app, /home/$app/app/log, /home/
$app/app/tmp]:
ensure = directory
owner = root
group = dev
mode = 4755
  }

  ## etc
}

Now, on our production servers, we have one application running, so we
do:

node production.domain.com {
  class { rails: name = application1, env = production }
}

This works fine, and sets up all the requirements for the application.
However, our staging server runs multiple applications, so I want to
do the following:

node staging.domain.com {
  class { rails: name = application1, env = production }
  class { rails: name = application2, env = production }
  class { rails: name = application3, env = production }
}

Obviously this complains about duplicate definitions of the rails
class, but the variables are different. How can I work around this? Or
what is a better way to implement what I'm trying to do? without
having to duplicate everything

[Puppet Users] Defined resources not being applied, breaking dependencies

2011-05-20 Thread Jake - USPS
I'm running into an issue where I have a resource (package ipwatchd)
dependent on another resource (exec fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo), but the
resource that its dependent on isn't being included into the catalog.
What's where is that the ipwatchd resource is actually dependent on 5
different exec 'repos' (fix_sles_pool_repo, fix_sles_update_repo,
fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo, fix_sle_sdk_update_repo,
fix_sle_usps_addons_repo).  2 of them look to be in the catalog
(fix_sles_pool_repo, fix_sles_update_repo), the other 3 are not
(fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo, fix_sle_sdk_update_repo,
fix_sle_usps_addons_repo) ... I determined this (maybe incorrectly)
by looking at /var/lib/puppet/client_yaml/catalog/fqdn.yaml.  All of
the exec resources are all defined similarly though.  The error I get
is:

err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find
dependency Exec[fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo] for Package[usps-ipwatchd] at /
etc/puppet/modules/common/manifests/packages.pp:12

This seems to be working fine on 5 other SLES 11.1 systems though ...
and has worked fine in the past numerous times.

I'm using puppet 2.6.8 on the master and agents.  I've mainly been
using 2.6.7 in the past, just started using 2.6.8.  Not sure if that
has anything to do with this, but it is a recent change.

Not sure what else to provide  ... here is a copy of the class that
manages the resources in question.  I removed all the shell commands

Re: [Puppet Users] Including a class multiple times, with different variables

2011-05-20 Thread Nigel Kersten
On Fri, May 20, 2011 at 5:26 AM, Bilco105 bilco...@gmail.com wrote:

 Hi,

 I'm defining a class whose responsibility is to setup an application
 folder, virtual host, init script and so forth for a rails
 application. The class is defined as follows:

 class rails($name, $environment)
  ## Include General Software
  require nginx
  require mysql

   ## Setup application directories
  File { [/home/$app, /home/$app/app, /home/$app/app/log, /home/
 $app/app/tmp]:
ensure = directory
owner = root
group = dev
mode = 4755
  }

  ## etc
 }

 Now, on our production servers, we have one application running, so we
 do:

 node production.domain.com {
  class { rails: name = application1, env = production }
 }

 This works fine, and sets up all the requirements for the application.
 However, our staging server runs multiple applications, so I want to
 do the following:

 node staging.domain.com {
  class { rails: name = application1, env = production }
  class { rails: name = application2, env = production }
  class { rails: name = application3, env = production }
 }

 Obviously this complains about duplicate definitions of the rails
 class, but the variables are different. How can I work around this? Or
 what is a better way to implement what I'm trying to do? without
 having to duplicate everything


Classes are singletons and you can only have one of them.

If you want to instantiate multiple instances, use a defined resource type
instead.

[Puppet Users] Re: Defined resources not being applied, breaking dependencies

2011-05-20 Thread Jake - USPS
That was a typo on my part, usps-ipwatchd is where the issues stems
from as the error shows.  And as you stated, that is the only thing
defined.  Sorry for the confusion.

As you can see also, I'm not specifying any requires when defining the
usps-ipwatchd package.  And as the error shows its getting the correct
dependencies assigned to it.  The issue is that the dependency it has
is not 'defined' in the catalog the host receives, even though from
what I can tell above I have it defined properly and infact 2 similar
exec resources seem to be included fine (I think).  I've also checked
all my other modules/manifests to make sure I didn't have usps-
ipwatchd somewhere else also and its not.  So I'm not sure that is the
issue.

Thanks,
Jake

 Are you perhaps running into the issue where a specific require in a

 default as you have here with Package ?









  dependent on another resource (exec fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo), but the
  resource that its dependent on isn't being included into the catalog.
  What's where is that the ipwatchd resource is actually dependent on 5
  different exec 'repos' (fix_sles_pool_repo, fix_sles_update_repo,
  fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo, fix_sle_sdk_update_repo,
  fix_sle_usps_addons_repo).  2 of them look to be in the catalog
  (fix_sles_pool_repo, fix_sles_update_repo), the other 3 are not
  (fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo, fix_sle_sdk_update_repo,
  fix_sle_usps_addons_repo) ... I determined this (maybe incorrectly)
  by looking at /var/lib/puppet/client_yaml/catalog/fqdn.yaml.  All of
  the exec resources are all defined similarly though.  The error I get
  is:

  err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find
  dependency Exec[fix_sle_sdk_pool_repo] for Package[usps-ipwatchd] at /
  etc/puppet/modules/common/manifests/packages.pp:12

  This seems to be working fine on 5 other SLES 11.1 systems though ...
  and has worked fine in the past numerous times.

  I'm using puppet 2.6.8 on the master and agents.  I've mainly been
  using 2.6.7 in the past, just started using 2.6.8.  Not sure if that
  has anything to do with this, but it is a recent change.

  Not sure what else to provide  ... here is a copy of the class that
  manages the resources in question.  I removed all the shell commands
  in command and onlyif in the exec resources.  If they are needed
  for some reason let me know as I'm not sure I should be providing

Here was always good, when I was looking. ;)

That said, if you can't find anyone, Puppet Labs does have a
professional services arm who do consulting, and we would be happy to
talk to you about that.  Not really a full time solution, obviously.

Good luck.

The virtual resource operator:

[Puppet Users] PC EU feedback: exported resource syntax is too magical, hard to read

2011-05-20 Thread Randall Hansen
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/7612

The exported resources syntax:

@@user { luke: ensure = present }

Is concise and powerful, but very difficult to read. We should
consider word-based syntax, e.g.:

export @user { luke: ensure = present }

And taking into account #7605, perhaps:

export virtual user { luke: ensure = present }

Please comment on the ticket or reply here, whichever you prefer.

Thanks!

Yes on both counts. My coworkers have often commented on the cryptic
nature of this construct, and googling for 'puppet @@' doesn't return
anything immediately useful. Googling for 'puppet virtual export', on
the other hand, does. In fact, the first hit is the documentation on
Exporting and Collecting Resources.

[Puppet Users] report for schedule items

2011-05-20 Thread Corey Osman
Hi,

Currently when a resource is scheduled, that resource doesn't run until its 
supposed to.  However, the puppet report currently doesn't show if a resource 
is schedule as it just marks it as skipped.  Is there a way to separate out 
skipped from scheduled in puppet reports?

 The virtual resource operator:

 Is relatively easy to type but, if you don’t know it, very hard to
 read. We should consider a word-based syntax, e.g.:

virtual user { luke: ensure = present }

+1 to this. Any change here should also updae the export syntax as well.

replace @@user { foo: ; }
with export user { foo: ; }

Any plans on making the realizing/importing queries changed as well?

realize/query: User | title == foo |
export query: User | title == foo |

[Puppet Users] Re: PC EU feedback: ability to remove all unmanaged resources

 I call this the agent orange option :)

 This works, purging all unmanaged hosts entries:

     resources { 'host':
         purge = true,
         noop = true,
     }

 We should have a similar property for all (most?) types.

 Please comment on the ticket or reply here, whichever you prefer.


I don't understand.  I didn't think the resources meta-resource was
specific to use with the 'host' resource type.  Are there any resource
types that it *doesn't* work with?

Re: [Puppet Users] puppet code to find out which is the first active network interface

 I have a piece of shell script as below:

 How do I translate it to puppet code, for example to assign the result
 as a variable to use?

You want to write a custom fact, for Facter.  Normally you would
distribute that as part of the pluginsync process, so it would be sent
to the client by Puppet automatically, and available before your
catalog was compiled.

[Puppet Users] Puppetmaster leaving files open with too many files open error

2011-05-20 Thread treydock
Every few days I have to restart the puppetmaster process due to this
error

Could not read YAML data for node  Too many open files.

I have 9 clients being controlled by Puppet and each one of those will
generate the same error once this happens.  Running 'lsof' during this
time shows me 100's of entries like this

puppetmas 10443   puppet   14u unix
0x810014c7e18017057251 socket.

The only way to remedy this is by restarting the puppetmaster
process.  Once I restart the puppet master process it seems that a new
lsof entry is created and stays present for every client check.

All clients and puppetmaster are running 2.6.8 on CentOS 5.6 x64.  Any
ideas?  If more output and debug info is needed please let me know.
Also if switching to a mysql data store could get rid of this then
that would work as I was planning on it eventually.

Thanks
- Trey
