You should consider packaging up the software for your hosts' native package management system(s), and managing it that way. You should also look at the installer docs (or try "alfresco_installer.bin --help") to see whether it accepts any options to replace / suppress the interactive queries. If you have no alternative to making Puppet issue responses to the queries, then you'll need to rely on I/O redirection. Either pipe the responses into the installer, or write a response file on the client and redirect the installer's standard input to be from that file. Make sure you're using the "sh" provider for the Exec in this case. John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
