[Puppet Users] missing msgpack gem following puppet 3.4.0 upgrade

2013-12-23 Thread Luke Alford
Hello all,

Our puppet master and agents recently updated to 3.4.0 and all of our 
puppet runs are now compiling the catalog and promptly exiting happily 
without actually doing anything. There isn't anything unusual about what I 
see in the log output aside from a debug message about missing the msgpack 
gem. We are not attempting to use the new serialization at this time and no 
configurations have changed other than the package upgrade, but nonetheless 
puppet seems displeased about not having the library. Has anyone else 
encountered this? Is there something besides the package upgrade that is 
required for this to work?

OS: CentOS 6.4
Puppet: 3.4.0-1

puppet.noarch  3.4.0-1.el6   
 @PuppetLabs
puppet-server.noarch   3.4.0-1.el6   
 @PuppetLabs

Some log output from an agent noop run, I am not 100% certain this is 
causing the problem since the missing gem is only logged at the debug 
level, but I'm only going off of nothing else seeming out of the ordinary. 
I appreciate any thoughts on the matter, in the meantime I'll trying going 
back to 3.3.2-1 and see if that restores proper function. Our normal runs 
take many minutes as puppet does quite a bit for us, but it now bows out 
awfully quick.

[Puppet Users] Re: missing msgpack gem following puppet 3.4.0 upgrade

2013-12-23 Thread Luke Alford
Upon downgrading to 3.3.2-1 the problem still remains, so it does appear 
that the missing msgpack gem is a red herring that is not the cause of my 
problem. I'd still be interested in thoughts on that debug statement 
though, particularly if we choose to move to the improved serialization in 
the future.

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: missing msgpack gem following puppet 3.4.0 upgrade

2013-12-23 Thread Adrien Thebo
Puppet 3.4.0 adds experimental support for the msgpack protocol (
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/experiments_msgpack.html),
but doesn't depend on it being present. To enable it you need to install
the msgpack gem and set the preferred serialization format, so unless
you're explicitly enabling it then it shouldn't be a concern. Since it's
only experimental we aren't planning on moving to it in the near future,
but it's available so that people can try it for themselves.

With respect to your puppet runs being empty, you'll probably want to
ensure that the puppet master is generating the catalogs that you expected.
You can do `puppet master --compile nodename` to directly generate a
catalog; if that returns an empty catalog then it is probably an issue with
how the master is configured.

Re: [Puppet Users] Roles/profile design

2013-12-23 Thread Josh
Ramin,

After looking more at your example for configuring apache mods via hiera, I 
have one problem.

The create_resources will actually just define a resource like so:

apache::mod { 'php' }

However, to install the php module with puppetlabs/apache, I actually need 
to include the apache::mod::php class, ie:

class { 'apache::mod::php' }

Any ideas on how to make this work correctly?  The hiera data should allow 
me to choose which apache::mod::subclass modules that should be installed.

Thanks,

Josh 
 

 You're overloading profile because you're not using Hiera or an 
 ENC. 
 Take this example 

 class role::app1_fe { # or perhaps ::fe_app1 
include profile::apache 
include profile::php 
 } 

 class profile::apache { 
include apache 

$mymods = hiera('apache::a2mods', {}) 
create_resources('apache::a2mod', $mymods) 
$myvhosts = hiera('apache::vhosts', {}) 
create_resources('apache::vhost', $myvhosts) 

 } 

 profile::apache can be used by *any* server that needs Apache because by 
 default it does nothing but the minimal config of Apache. However if you 
 were to feed it data such as modules to enable or vhosts to load you 
 could build any Apache server you might need. 

 hieradata/app1_fe.yaml  # this assumes you have a role fact. 
 --- 
 apache::a2mods: 
expires: {} 
headers: {} 
rewrite: {} 
 apache::vhosts: 
www.example.com: {} 

 Structures like profile::webserver::app1 indicate you're mixing roles 
 and profiles. And you also embedding data into your Puppet code rather 
 than writing code to consume data. 

 It's a lot to wrap your head around and from my experience it 
 takes 1-2 
 restructures of your Puppet code to fully understand it. 

 Ramin

Hi,
How are you declaring your classes to include from with in hiera?

Is it similar to this?

---
classes:
  - apache
  - apache::mod
apache::someparamater: value
apache::mod::php: blah


If so, you should be able to do:

---
classes:
  - apache
  - apache::mod::php
apache::my_favorite_parameter: value
apache::mod::php::php_parameter: some_other_vaule

I haven't tried that exact thing with the apache module, but it does
work for other modules with sub-classes that I've been working with.
That is assuming that you're using the 'classes' array with the
hiera_include function.  We use the create_resources function to create
wrappers for defines, while regular classes are included via the
hiera_include and classes array.

Our setup was pretty much taken directly from the hiera documentation:

http://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/1/puppet.html#assigning-classes-to-nodes-with-hiera-hierainclude

There are some gotchas that come up with the hiera merge behavior
depending on how complex you're hiera layout becomes.  For example, we
had to set the hiera merge_behavior to deeper for us to get some of the
desired results that we were looking for.

Thanks for the confirmation Adrien, and for the tip on the puppet master

 the msgpack gem and set the preferred serialization format, so unless 
 you're explicitly enabling it then it shouldn't be a concern. Since it's 
 only experimental we aren't planning on moving to it in the near future, 
 but it's available so that people can try it for themselves.

 With respect to your puppet runs being empty, you'll probably want to 
 ensure that the puppet master is generating the catalogs that you expected. 
 You can do `puppet master --compile nodename` to directly generate a 
 catalog; if that returns an empty catalog then it is probably an issue with 
 how the master is configured.

 Hello all,

 Our puppet master and agents recently updated to 3.4.0 and all of our 
 puppet runs are now compiling the catalog and promptly exiting happily 
 without actually doing anything. There isn't anything unusual about what I 
 see in the log output aside from a debug message about missing the msgpack 
 gem. We are not attempting to use the new serialization at this time and no 
 configurations have changed other than the package upgrade, but nonetheless 
 puppet seems displeased about not having the library. Has anyone else 
 encountered this? Is there something besides the package upgrade that is 
 required for this to work?

 OS: CentOS 6.4
 Puppet: 3.4.0-1

 puppet.noarch  3.4.0-1.el6   
  @PuppetLabs
 puppet-server.noarch   3.4.0-1.el6   
  @PuppetLabs

 Some log output from an agent noop run, I am not 100% certain this is 
 causing the problem since the missing gem is only logged at the debug 
 level, but I'm only going off of nothing else seeming out of the ordinary. 
 I appreciate any thoughts on the matter, in the meantime I'll trying going 
 back to 3.3.2-1 and see if that restores proper function. Our normal runs 
 take many minutes as puppet does quite a bit for us, but it now bows out 
 awfully quick.

Re: [Puppet Users] Roles/profile design

2013-12-23 Thread Josh
Joseph,

I'm not currently defining classes with hiera.  The host is assigned a 
role, which includes a profile, which installs includes ::apache.  I guess 
this may be something that we need to look at for these types of scenarios.

Josh
 

 Hi, 
 How are you declaring your classes to include from with in hiera? 

 Is it similar to this? 

 --- 
 classes: 
   - apache 
   - apache::mod 
 apache::someparamater: value 
 apache::mod::php: blah 


 If so, you should be able to do: 

 --- 
 classes: 
   - apache 
   - apache::mod::php 
 apache::my_favorite_parameter: value 
 apache::mod::php::php_parameter: some_other_vaule 

 I haven't tried that exact thing with the apache module, but it does 
 work for other modules with sub-classes that I've been working with. 
 That is assuming that you're using the 'classes' array with the 
 hiera_include function.  We use the create_resources function to create 
 wrappers for defines, while regular classes are included via the 
 hiera_include and classes array. 

 Our setup was pretty much taken directly from the hiera documentation: 


 http://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/1/puppet.html#assigning-classes-to-nodes-with-hiera-hierainclude
  

 There are some gotchas that come up with the hiera merge behavior 
 depending on how complex you're hiera layout becomes.  For example, we 
 had to set the hiera merge_behavior to deeper for us to get some of the 
 desired results that we were looking for.

[Puppet Users] puppet 3.4.0 upgrade, foreman 1.1-stable, problems that are not provisioning related

2013-12-23 Thread Luke Alford
I am having problems with our puppet/foreman infrastructure that seem to 
coincide with an upgrade to 3.4.0-1, but that are persisting after a 
downgrade back to 3.3.2-1. There are no obvious errors I can find and I 
don't seem to be having any problems with puppet talking to foreman, so 
overall things look completely normal other than I have puppet classes when 
foreman responds with node information and an empty catalog after the 
puppet master compiles. I am pretty stumped by this and would appreciate 
any thoughts others may have on troubleshooting this problem.

First, here's some more important information about our system. We had been 
running puppet 3.3.2-1 and foreman 1.1-stable for quite some time before 
things bumped up to 3.4.0 over the weekend.
- centos 6.4 for puppet master and nodes
- puppet and puppet-server 3.3.2-1 (I downgraded both puppet and 
puppet-server back to this version since we'd been running successfully 
with it for some time now)
- puppetdb and puppetdb-terminus 1.5.0-1
- foreman 1.1-stable (we've also been running this for some time, we don't 
do any provisioning with it but we use it as an ENC for storing data and 
classifying nodes into roles)
- puppet and foreman running behind nginx/passenger

If the upgrade to 3.4.0 was the sole source of my problem I would expect 
things to have returned back to normal after the downgrade. Since the 
catalog is still empty though, there's got to be something I'm missing. 

Here are a few things I've tried while digging into this.

1) puppet master --compile my node
The node is found, but there are no classes identified. Therein lies the 
problem.
...
version: 1387830624,
classes: [
  settings,
  default
],
environment: production
...

2) Firing up irb, I manually checked what foreman returns for my node. I 
won't post the whole output including parameters, but the important part is 
that the keyset for the classes key in the yaml document matches what I 
would expect for this particular monolithic test box.
...
{play=nil, sudo=nil, mongo=nil, rsyslog=nil, 
mysql::server=nil, jmx=nil, nginx::loadbalancer=nil, ssh=nil, 
play::install=nil, mongo::seed=nil, users=nil, 
mysql::server::master=nil, logstash=nil, common=nil, 
puppet=nil, zabbix=nil, motd=nil, logrotate=nil, java=nil, 
yum=nil, ntp=nil}

3) I noticed that facter also updated to version 1.7.4 during this time, 
but at least from what I've tried so far this doesn't seem to be a problem 
of any kind.

4) Yes, I did try turning it off and on again. :)

So it seems that somewhere between talking to the ENC and actually 
compiling the catalog that my puppet classes disappear into the ether that 
I have not yet identified. I would appreciate any suggestions people have 
on further troubleshooting, or why the upgrade might have gotten things 
into an odd state that rolling back the package somehow doesn't fix.

Re: [Puppet Users] Roles/profile design

2013-12-23 Thread Ramin K

Something like the following might work.

class profile::app1_site
  class {'apache::mod::php':}
  package { 'php5-brcypt': }
  # etc etc
}

	I've avoided parameterized classes for historical reasons, but Joseph's 
method should work. It does require some restructuring.


	fwiw not a fan of the apache::mod set of functionality unless the 
module is part of Apache core. I've noticed there is now a 
puppetlabs-passenger module to handle the complexities apache::mod { 
'passenger': } could not. Assuming your PHP config is more than just 
installing the Apache module I recommend following the same logic and 
making your own PHP module with a module and local conf define. Wrap 
that in profile::php with the needed create_resources and add it to the 
role.
