Puppet agent does not start in Solaris zone

[Andreas Dvorak]

Dear all

the puppet agent does not want to start on my first Solaris zone. I have already Puppet on x86 server running.
Can anybody please help me?

I have created a package for Solaris 10 Sparc to use the puppet agent on a Solaris zone.

/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil -a puppet
common               package              catalog                        size
puppet               CSWpuppet            2.7.23,REV=2013.08.15      728.3 KB
puppet3              CSWpuppet3           3.3.1,REV=2013.10.22       980.4 KB
puppetmaster         CSWpuppetmaster      2.7.23,REV=2013.08.15        3.4 KB
puppetmaster3        CSWpuppetmaster3     3.3.1,REV=2013.10.22         2.2 KB

from http://mirror.opencsw.org/opencsw/unstable

Command to create the package:
/opt/csw/bin/pkgutil --stream --target=sparc:5.10 --output CSWpuppet3_agent_sparc_3.3.1.pkg --yes --download CSWpuppet3

But the service cswpuppetd does not want to start:

[ Nov 13 17:28:24 Disabled. ]
[ Nov 13 17:29:04 Disabled. ]

The zone has

Now I have tried the version puppet3              CSWpuppet3           3.1.1,REV=2013.03.15       780.4 KB from testing branch.
but it has the same problem.

Hi,

It's starting up through SMF? What happens if you try to run the agent directly? Like:

sudo puppet agent -t 

Or run it as root without sudo.

Hi Rich,

I tried
/opt/csw/bin/puppet agent --test
bash: /opt/csw/bin/puppet: /opt/csw/bin/ruby18: bad interpreter: Invalid argument

But unfortunately that does not help me. Have you got any idea?

Regards
Andreas

I'm not sure. I'd check to see if your Ruby version is supported:

Hi Rich,

the package installs CSWruby18 VERSION:  1.8.7p334,REV=2011.03.24 and that is supported.

Dear all,

I found the problem.
The package needs to be installed in the global zone. It does not work if you install it only in the local zone.

Best regards
Andreas
