Ramin,
After looking more at your example for configuring apache mods via hiera, I
have one problem.
The create_resources will actually just define a resource like so:
apache::mod { 'php' }
However, to install the php module with puppetlabs/apache, I actually need
to include the apache::mod::php class, ie:
class { 'apache::mod::php' }
Any ideas on how to make this work correctly? The hiera data should allow
me to choose which apache::mod::subclass modules that should be installed.
Thanks,
Josh
