Package: puppet Version: 0.24.1-1 Severity: normal The init script for Puppet gets the pid file from /var/run/puppet, while a default Puppet install stores the pid file in /var/lib/puppet/run ('$vardir/run'). Because of this a "/etc/init.d/puppet stop" does not work.
Adding rundir=/var/run/puppet to /etc/puppet/puppet.conf fixes this: [main] logdir=/var/log/puppet vardir=/var/lib/puppet ssldir=/var/lib/puppet/ssl rundir=/var/run/puppet -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-5-xen-amd64 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages puppet depends on: ii adduser 3.102 Add and remove users and groups ii facter 1.3.8-1 a library for retrieving facts fro ii libopenssl-ruby 1.0.0+ruby1.8.2-1 OpenSSL interface for Ruby ii libshadow-ruby1.8 1.4.1-7 Interface of shadow password for R ii libxmlrpc-ruby 1.8.2-1 XML-RPC support for Ruby ii lsb-base 3.1-23.2etch1 Linux Standard Base 3.1 init scrip ii ruby 1.8.2-1 An interpreter of object-oriented Versions of packages puppet recommends: ii rdoc 1.8.2-1 Generate documentation from ruby s -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
