if you write
<% if val != "<%= hostname %>" %>
The thing between <% and %> will be interpreted as ruby code but you mix
in erb syntax inside this ruby fragment. Maybe erb thinks the ruby code
ends after the inner %> not after the outer %>. However what you really
wanted to write was probably
<% if val != @hostname %>
Notice that I am addressing hostname as an instance variable. Addressing
it as plain hostname (as a function) does also work but should be avoided
because you may accidentally call a real ruby function instead
(http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14527 is a great example for
that)
So the endresult could be
<% hosts.each do |val| -%>
<% if val != @hostname -%>
host (<%= val %>)
<% end -%>
<% end -%>

Re: [Puppet Users] erb question - can you "if val" in an "each do" statement?
Thank you Stefan
Just testing and ...
gary@mc9:/../github/dev/puppet$ erb -P -x -T '-'
modules/csync2/templates/host.csync2.cfg.erb | ruby -c
Syntax OK
gary@mc9:/../github/dev/puppet$
Brilliant, thank you very much.
Would still be interested to know if you can use if val in the each do
context.
However, for the time being problem solved, thanks for the time.
Regards
Gary

Haven't tested it but does
<% @hosts.reject { |h| h == @hostname }.each do |host| -%>
<%= host %>
<% end -%>
work for you?

[Puppet Users] erb question - can you "if val" in an "each do" statement?
Quick erb question:
Can you use a if val in an each do iteration? And if so... how :/ If
someone knows and is kind enough to shed some light.
Trying to figure what will work and the following do NOT work.
<% hosts.each do |val| %><% if val != "<%= hostname %>" %> host (<%= val
%>);<% end %><% end %>
<% hosts.each do |val| %><% if "<%= val %>" != "<%= hostname %>" %> host
(<%= val %>);<% end %><% end %>
<% hosts.each do |val| %><% if <%= val %> != "<%= hostname %>" %> host
(<%= val %>);<% end %><% end %>
All error with something similar to:
syntax error, unexpected $undefined, expecting kTHEN or ':' or '\n' or ';'
...= hostname ; _erbout.concat "\" %> host ("; _erbout.concat...
^
.cfg.erb:15: syntax error, unexpected kEND, expecting $end
...rbout.concat ");"; end ; end ; _erbout.concat "\n key /et...
Thanks in advance..
