hostname appears in classes.txt

[mark bradley]

Although I have a node defined (puppet agent --test runs without error) the agent does not pick up files that it should be accessing and I've noticed that the hostname appears in classes.txt.

Does anyone have a notion of what's happening? Could it be that my node isn't being recognized as belonging to the class defined on the server?

Hi Mark,

   The classes.txt file contains all the classes which is to be executed on agent. It also contains hostname. So the hostname in classes.txt file is not a problem. 

Check out the classes present in your manifests which is to be apply on agent are present in classes.txt. If not present then you can run puppet agent as,

# puppet agent --test --loadclasses

Can you explain your problem in details like which file is not pick by puppet. Also give your manifests code. 

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Rahul,

Thanks for the reply!

First of all, the problem is that the class that the node belongs to isn't being "realized" (that is, files that are installed on other nodes of that class aren't being installed on this problematic node).

Also, I cannot find the --loadclasses option in http://docs.puppetlabs.com/man/agent.html and the binary also complains .. can you expand on this?

Thanks,

Mark

Hi,

It was a problem with my script that updates the git repository. Embarrassingly, Puppet was doing the right thing, which was "do nothing".
