[Puppet Users] Migrating from 0.25.4 to 2.6

Hi all, As part of a new project, we're thinking about moving from CentOS to Debian. One of the few concerns I have about doing this is that we currently run Puppet 0.25.4 on all our systems, yet the available versions for Debian appear to be 0.24.5 or 2.6.2 (backports). If I keep my puppetmaste

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: How to include the Scope(...) in a generated string?

Hi, Brian.Not knowing about the structures inside puppet my guess would be that the scope is evaluated before the classes are applied.Their content seems complete in both cases you mention. However the order may vary. This can be the case if the variables are held internally in a HashMap or similar

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: How to include the Scope(...) in a generated string?

My experience with it is that it only includes declared/included classes (which matches my desire anyway), but that the list of classes is ... somewhat random. It will always include the classes in the chain of the test, but other classes are more random. A short example: class one{ include two;

[Puppet Users] Re: How to include the Scope(...) in a generated string?

*EXPERIMENTS* Huh, it seems to return the DECLARED classes, not the defined ones, i.e. it can only see the modules and classes that are being applied to this particular node. OK, I could see an argument for that making sense. BUT: It also includes the names of any `node` constructs that match it (

[Puppet Users] Re: How to include the Scope(...) in a generated string?

On it. (Thanks for the example, Dan; that's pretty sweet.) Brian, what problem do you tend to see with the classes array? Does it look like an order dependency? Is it just a crapshoot as to whether a given class is in the list, or is there a method to it? On Feb 2, 5:18 pm, Brian Gallew wrote: >

I'm running into a bizarre issue. What it boils down to is that when I start tomcat through puppetd, certain UTF-8 settings do not appear to take effect and the end result is garbage characters on a web page. However, when we run puppetd with --no-daemonize --debug -- trace --one-time, everythin

I'd like to include similar information that notice() spits out in a file I am generating -- basically so that anyone looking at the generated file (actually a file fragment) could trace it back to the class that is generating the entry. Using $name within the file fragment is the closest I am ge
