Re: [Puppet Users] How to use variables in a puppet class

[Sean Crosby]

Hi Vikas,

Do you have the package 'redhat-lsb' installed? The $lsbdistrelease fact is
only populated when this package is installed

 Hello All,

 I have a kickstart server which I use to deploy many minor versions of
 CentOS/RHEL 5 and 6 for both 32 and 64 Bit OS.

 I have lots of yum repository files. For. e.g. - RHEL_5.5_64.repo,
 RHEL_5.6_64.repo, RHEL_6.2_32, RHEL_6.5_64, etc. I am looking to use Puppet
 to automatically deploy the required kickstart repos. I tried to follow
 this
 http://seriousbirder.com/blogs/how-to-create-a-puppet-yum-repo-module/
 link in vain.

 The problem is that I am unable to use facter variables *$lsbdistrelease*
 with something like below.

 baseurl= http://our-reposrv:8080/dev/RHEL_$lsbdistrelease_64;

 Here, the variable does not converts to is value.

 Please help me to get this sorted. Am I missing anything ?

 Regards,
 Vikas

Why have you added the root user to the group puppet? puppetmaster
normally runs using the puppet user in the puppet group.

What groups is your 'puppet' user part of?

Here's mine:

# id puppet
uid=52(puppet) gid=52(puppet) groups=52(puppet)
