[Puppet Users] Re: How to Prevent Both MySQL and Percona From Being Installed?

Hi, well at least on my debian, the percona-server package "provides" mysql, a meta-package. Installing Percona sees to it that MySQL (or MariaDB) is purged from the system first. So the way I see it, you have no need to remove mysql from your machine. Just install percona-server, this will see

[Puppet Users] puppetlabs-mysql and Percona

Hi, the module puppetlabs-mysql on the forge is tagged with percona, but I don't see a way to have the module install a Percona-Server. The module has providers for MySQL and MariaDB, but not Percona. I tried working with puppetlabs-mysql, installing Percona with a package-resource ending with

Hi, You could create a simple facter script to check for a installed software you are interested in. The facter scripts are run on all nodes and you can check the result on each machine easily. regards > Am 25.01.2018 um 23:17 schrieb Brandon Blackmoor >: >

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: ensure_packets not working

Hi John, thanks for your support! I see your point, especially with the different use of notify. It’s disapointing to hear one should still keep away from ensure_packages, as it greatly helps me to install packages only when needed. This goes mostly for apache modules and php extensions in my

Re: [Puppet Users] refactor use of ensure_packages to install new versions of php packages

thx for the smart ;-) but when I redeclare the list, I end up keeping two lists of packages. The guy who I am, I will definitely fuck this up regularly… and that’s back to the root of my problem… I would like to somehow reuse the $myPackages structure with different values for $php_version. M

Re: [Puppet Users] refactor use of ensure_packages to install new versions of php packages

I think you will get sort of „cannot redeclare“… otherwise I agree, it would work like you suggest. But with the solution you propose, I guess I will have one structure for the packages to be installed and another for the ones to be removed. But I want to manage only one list of packages… more

Re: [Puppet Users] refactor use of ensure_packages to install new versions of php packages

Hi Garrett, thx for the thoughts. I am basically doing as you suggest. Whenever possible I hold to latest versions of package maintainers But Debian often comes with old versions of PHP which poses a problem. So I tend to use sury repositories to install newer but well tested packages of PHP.

Re: [Puppet Users] refactor use of ensure_packages to install new versions of php packages

Hi all, I solved this with the use of puppet iteration functions: class profile::software::apache ( $php_version= '7.4', $php_remove = ['7.0‘, ‘7.3'], #... ) { # build a hash of PHP Versions with a value of either present or absent # and iterate over it with each $phpInstallHa

Re: [Puppet Users] Newbie wants to know your favourite distro for Puppet Server

I am going well with Debian, but that’s what I usually use. I guess I had a hard time running Puppet against Windows only… although it is possible, I think the worlds are so apart that there are some rough edges… you probably are more easy when you know your Puppet from unix and then start to c
