[Puppet Users] Check package version in order to proceed with installation (err: Could not update: package is already installed)
Hi *, we have plans to handle the update process of puppet related packages by our local update server. However, for now we need do deal with the situation by fetching the respective rpms to the client and install them by using the rpm provider. So in order to proceed with the installation I would like to check if the latest version is already installed before puppet tries to install/update it, to get rid of the following error log message: node # puppetd -o --server puppet.domain.tld --waitforcert 60 --test [...] err: /Stage[main]/Puppet::Client::Rollout/Package[puppet]/ensure: change from 2.6.4-27.1 to Header-V3 failed: Could not update: Execution of '/bin/rpm -U --oldpackage /tmp/puppet-2.6.4-27.1.x86_64.rpm' returned 1: warning: /tmp/puppet-2.6.4-27.1.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 5c43a8d9 package puppet-2.6.4-27.1.x86_64 is already installed at /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/puppet.pp:42 [...] This error occurs anytime if the latest version of the package is already installed. I tried to use the onlyif and unless parameters but according to the latest type reference under http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html; these seem to be not supported, neither by the resource type file nor by resource type package. /etc/puppet/manifests/classes/puppet.pp class puppet { class client { class rollout { $mypuppetversion = 2.6.4-27.1 $myfacterversion = 1.5.8-6.1 $myrshadowversion = 1.4.1-4.1 file { /tmp/facter-$myfacterversion.x86_64.rpm: source = puppet://puppet.domain.tld/files/rpm-sles11sp1/facter-$myfacterversion.x86_64.rpm; /tmp/puppet-$mypuppetversion.x86_64.rpm: source = puppet://puppet.domain.tld/files/rpm-sles11sp1/puppet-$mypuppetversion.x86_64.rpm; /tmp/ruby-shadow-$myrshadowversion.x86_64.rpm: source = puppet://puppet.domain.tld/files/rpm-sles11sp1/ruby-shadow-$myrshadowversion.x86_64.rpm; } package { facter: ensure = latest, name = facter, provider = rpm, source = /tmp/facter-$myfacterversion.x86_64.rpm, require = file[/tmp/facter-$myfacterversion.x86_64.rpm]; puppet: ensure = latest, name = puppet, provider = rpm, source = /tmp/puppet-$mypuppetversion.x86_64.rpm, require = file[/tmp/puppet-$mypuppetversion.x86_64.rpm]; ruby-shadow: ensure = latest, name = ruby-shadow, provider = rpm, source = /tmp/ruby-shadow-$myrshadowversion.x86_64.rpm, require = file[/tmp/ruby-shadow-$myrshadowversion.x86_64.rpm]; } service { puppet: enable = true, ensure = running, restart = true, name = puppet; } } } } I hope that somebody got the point because as every time I'm totally sure that I missed some peace of documentation and of course there is always a better way to handle such situations? :) Thanks in advance Jan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.
