install puppet on esx
Dotan
I´m trying to install puppet on esx 3.5 server, but I have some
difficulties.
I need to compile a new version of ruby.
If there anybody that succeed in this part or with the whole process,
its will be great for any post about it.
TIA,
Dotan
John Warburton
Here is my documentation trail for compiling the puppet supporting environment for ESX 3.5. Note that our installation standard requires applications to be installed under /apps, but you should get the idea. The only hairy bit I had was with the ruby-augeas link, where I had to hack the Makefile a bit. I think that was due to the non standard locations.
As a side note, VMware can get very picky about you running 3rd party apps on an ESX server when you make support calls, so I actually did the install locally on a dev ESX server, then moved it all onto an NFS share, and mount that every hour and do a puppet client run
Regards
John

Thank you very much for the answer, it's seem like a good one.
its going to help me a lot!!
I will be out of office until next week, so i can check that in a while, but im sure that this mail will fixed my problem.
Thanks again,

compile on ESX 3.5
I had problems with the ruby-augeas bindings, and had to do a manual
workaround.
The problem was that pkg-config wasn't installed on the server and
"rake build" was failing silently. Thanks to this post on the augeas-
devel list - http://www.mail-archive.com/augeas...@redhat.com/msg02164.html
Also, I install in a non-standard directory, so needed to include that
in the run time libs for augeas, hence my build doc now says:
Install pkg-config-0.23.tar.gz on server in default location
[root@esxhost tmp]# tar xzf ruby-augeas-0.3.0.tgz
[root@esxhost tmp]# cd ruby-augeas-0.3.0
[root@esxhost ruby-augeas-0.3.0]# export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/apps/puppet/
augeas-0.5.3/lib/pkgconfig
[root@esxhost ruby-augeas-0.3.0]# export CONFIGURE_ARGS="--with-
ldflags=-Wl,-R/apps/puppet/augeas/lib"
[root@esxhost ruby-augeas-0.3.0]# rake build
[root@esxhost ruby-augeas-0.3.0]# cp lib/augeas.rb /apps/puppet/ruby/
lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/augeas.rb
[root@esxhost ruby-augeas-0.3.0]# cd ./ext/augeas/
[root@esxhost augeas]# make install
Hope this helps
