Problem just keep hitting me...
Can anyone see why this simple script fails:
--------------- start ----------------
class mysql-server {
Package['mysql-server'] -> Service['mysql']
package { mysql-server :
name => "mysql-server",
ensure => installed,
}
service { mysql :
name => 'mysql-server',
require => Package['mysql-server'],
ensure => running,
enable => true,
}
----------- end ------------
When I run it, it alway ends with:
err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find init
script for 'mysql-server'
Which is becase it tries to start the service before it is
installed...
Might have something to do with FreeBSDs brilliant namingconvention,
but that beats me.
Br,
Freddie
