Hello  need a bit of help , hoping to talk to someone more knowledgeable than i on salt,  i am new to salt.

  File SLS :

either one of these

 top.sls
base:
  '*':
    - webserver

  *********** OR ****************
 vim.sls
vim:
  pkg.installed   

THe command i execute is   salt '*' state.sls vim

Or for the top.sls  i have used

salt  < MYSERVERNAME>  top.sls state.highstate --log-level=debug

The Error i get 2 errors 1 is this below and the other is   DATA FAILED TO COMPILE

 The TOP.SLS is sitting in /srv/salt and so is the below VIM.SLS

[root@salty salt]# salt '*' state.sls vim

For each of the minions i get the following,  

----------

    Function: pkg.installed
      Result: False

My /etc/salt/master    is set with

# Example:

#   base:
#     - /srv/salt/
#   dev:
#     - /srv/salt/dev/services
#     - /srv/salt/dev/states
#   prod:
#     - /srv/salt/prod/services
#     - /srv/salt/prod/states

file_roots:
  base:
    - /srv/salt


It is complaining about a .saltrc,  from above, i am not sure about this.  I am running as root and have this enabled in the config

ALL HELP IS GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!  Any other info you need please let me know!!

[sea...@gmail.com]

I have started to use another client to test this command   :

I should say i can successfully do a test.ping do a disk usage command with out a problem. The problem lies in the sls files here is the exact file, i know it is simple for now

TOP.SLS
base:
  '*':
    - webserver      <<<

 salt oracle.umflint.edu state.sls top.sls
oracle.umflint.edu:
    Data failed to compile:
----------
    No matching sls found for 'top.sls' in env 'base'


I thought  env 'base would be referring to  /srv/salt/base so i created a directory,  but i got the same error as above

[Colton Myers]

To solve your "Package 'vim' not found" error, just use the proper package name for vim on that system, i.e. vim-enhanced:

vim-enhanced:

  pkg.installed

Top.sls files are different from normal sls files, and are not designed to be run with state.sls. Instead, use state.highstate:

salt <myservernae> state.highstate

No need to actually reference the top.sls file in your command -- top.sls is a special file used by the highstate command.

Hope that helps.

Yes and Thanks  ,    
 
Here is more of what i am experiencing,   I changed the top.sls file to the following ,  i think the error i was having is that it was looking for the webserver.sls at the end of the other top.sls file
As I did mention i can run test.ping and other functions and they work successfully

NEW TOP.SLS    I do have apache installed on one (1) server , I have 7 minions
apache:
  pkg.installed: []
   service.running:
     - watch:
       - pkg: apache
       - file: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
       - user: apache
  
NOW when i run
                             salt '*' state.highstate

I have this error with the top file described above  BELOW for all 7 servers

 MYSERVERNAME

I don't think you understand how salt works. The following wouldn't go in top.sls, top.sls if for assigning certain states to specific minions.

apache:
  pkg.installed: []
   service.running:
     - watch:
       - pkg: apache
       - file: /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf
       - user: apache

YOu would put that in say apache.sls

The in top.sls you would put in a line that matches the minions you want apache installed on. Something like

"web*"

  - apache

I suggest you thoroughly read

http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/topics/tutorials/starting_states.html

and 

http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/states/top.html

or maybe work straight through the tutorials

http://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/topics/tutorials/
