Hi there,

i wanted to ask some questions to better understand how to adapt failing puppet configuration for my wikimedia labs instance, as i started to get notifications 2 days ago.

So, i found out about "Manage Puppet Groups" (in Wikitech) but i could not figure out what the page is exactly about (listing "all projects" -> "Classes"?), except that i can add so called "puppet groups" myself.. But before trying so, i wanted to understand a bit more, specifically:

- What does the "role::puppet::self" mean? when set/not-set for my instance?

- What does the global group named "puppet-development" stand for? (looking at "configure" of my specific instance in question, this group is not selected)

- Where can i see/find my instances puppet configuration

- How can i adjust my instance puppet file and (test-)run puppet until it is not "failing to run" but "working"
- Where can i see/find the (error) output of puppet failing

Might it be best for me to migrate my app to a new (debian jessy based) instance, would that make sense (i mean, has anything changed in the provisioning of puppet-defaults for new instances from 02 March 2015 to 07 June in 2016)?

OK, so much for now & Thanks for your support!

Puppet is failing to run on the "wikidata-topics" instance in the Wikimedia Labs

Working puppet runs are needed to maintain instance security and logins.
As long as puppet continues to fail, this system is in danger of becoming
unreachable.
