How to get logs in to the same termianl in agent side

[Malintha Adikari]

Hi,

I am executing a shell script in the puppet agent side. If I execute the same shell script in my local machine it will print several log messages to terminal. But when I execute it in the puppet agent it does not print any log into the agent terminal. How can I print the logs of the shell script when I run it using puppet ? I am using following command to execute the shell script.

    exec { "strating":
    user       => 'root',
    environment => 'JAVA_HOME=/home/malintha/jdk1.6.0',
    path        => $command_path,
    command    => "/pathToShellScript/myScript.sh",
    logoutput => true,
    timeout => 3600,
    require => Exec['another goal'],
  }

Regards,

I think, you cannot: The manifest is first compiled on Puppet Master and then the catalog (complied manifests) is sent to the agent, where that command actually runs. You can try this instead to see if you get any thing better

command    => '/pathToShellScript/myScript.sh 2>&1',

logoutput  => true,

Best!

Another thing, JFYI: I think somewhere you said you are new the Puppet, so get into the habit to follow the style-guide before it's too late, especially for the quote: you are mixing up the double and single quotes.
Look at here: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/style_guide.html

you will need to run the puppet agent with --verbose (or --test which implied verbose) to actually display the output in the terminal.
