Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet facter operatingsystemrelease
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.

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet facter 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 !

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. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Puppet Users group.

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