hello,
I am trying to add a custum fact to my puppet module.
I wrote and tested the facter script and it functions as I want it to.
I've got the same issue, trying to distribute a custom fact. I'd like to
return the version of Plesk Panel running on the client.
So I wrote and tested a little fact:
# cat plesk_version.rb
require 'facter'
Facter.add("plesk_version") do
setcode do
%x{cat /usr/local/psa/version}.chomp
end
end
r...@test10:~/lib/ruby/facter#
facter finds this on the client and it returns what I'm looking for.
I want to put this on the server and distribute it. My puppet clients
and puppetmaster server are 0.25.4.
On the puppetmaster I edited /etc/puppet/puppet.conf:
[main]
logdir=/var/log/puppet
vardir=/var/lib/puppet
ssldir=/var/lib/puppet/ssl
rundir=/var/run/puppet
factpath=$vardir/lib/facter
pluginpath=$vardir/lib/facter
pluginsync=true
[puppetmasterd]
#templatedir=/var/lib/puppet/templates
factsync=true
factpath=$vardir/facts
and also fileserver.conf:
# cat /etc/puppet/fileserver.conf
[files]
path /var/lib/puppet/files
allow *
[plugins]
path /var/lib/puppet/facts
allow *
I put my fact file (plesk_version.rb) in the /var/lib/puppet/facts
directory. I also put a copy in the /var/lib/puppet/plugins directory.
On my client, I ran the puppetd with this command:
# /usr/sbin/puppetd --no-daemonize --verbose --onetime --pluginsync
I got this:
info: Retrieving plugin
err: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Failed to retrieve current state of
resource: Could not retrieve information from source(s)
puppet://xxx.xxxxx.net/plugins
notice: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter]: Dependency
file[/var/lib/puppet/lib] has 1 failures
warning: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib/facter]: Skipping because of failed
dependencies
This seems to have changed some in 0.25.4, and googleing around has not
helped.
May I have a pointer to the correct process?
Thanks,
Ed Greenberg
