Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet facter operatingsystemrelease

2011-02-09 Thread Hugo Deprez
Hello,

thank you for the anwser.
I try to run facter on both servers here it what I get :

~ # facter operatingsystemrelease
5.0.8

~ $ facter operatingsystemrelease
6.0

So far no issues.

Maybe in my if statement I should use   ?

Is there a way to print somewhere  the value of  the variables in order to
be sure of what is return ?


If not i'll try to use versioncmp.

Thanks

  Factor is a helpful tool, but not here and now.

 Ah thanks for the fix.

notify { OS release detected as '$operatingsystemrelease': }

Hello,

I found the solution thanks to your help  :

if versioncmp($operatingsystemrelease, '5.0.8')  0 {
$syslog_template = syslog/syslog-ng.conf-squeeze.erb

}
else
{
$syslog_template = syslog/syslog-ng.conf.erb
}

and I add in my class :

notify { OS release detected as '$operatingsystemrelease': }
 notify { template detected as '$syslog_template': }

It works
Thank you !

Hugo

 Hello,
 
 I am running puppet server version 0.25.4-2, and since Debian squeeze
 is the new stable release I would like to adapt some of my modules.
 
 I have a syslog-ng module, I would like to specify another template
 for my squeeze server.
 
 I changed my init.pp as follow :
 
 
 if ($operatingsystemrelease = 5.0.8) {
 $syslog_template = syslog/syslog-ng.conf.erb
 }
 else {
 $syslog_template = syslog/syslog-ng.conf-squeeze.erb
 }
 
 [...]
 
 
   file { /etc/syslog-ng/syslog-ng.conf:
 ensure = present,
 mode = 644,
 owner = root,
 group = root,
 content =  template($syslog_template),
 notify = service[syslog-ng],
 }
 
 I try this configuration thanks to the following post :
 http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/33bafb3fff10171f
 
 But it doesn't work. My old client are still using  syslog/syslog-
 ng.conf.erb and I don't get any error message.
 
 Maybe the puppet server is too old version for using facter
 operatingsystemrelease  ?

Run factor | grep operatingsystemrelease on your client and see what happens. 
 If it doesn't give output, try factor by itself and see if you have a typo 
in the name for the fact.

I would guess that it's not giving a version number, or giving one different 
from what you expect.

Erm, that's facter operatingsystemrelease or just facter :-)

Quite possible. Note that facts can be different between different
versions of facter (don't get me started on the old lsbdistid etc.)

However, I suspect your error is rooted elsewhere. Hint:
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/function.html#versioncmp

HTH,
Felix
