John,
What is the error that you are receiving?
ERB should not have any problems with percent signs in a template. I use
the following bash function to help me with syntax checking.
# puppet template syntax checking
function pt()
{
if [ -z $1 ]; then
echo "usage: pt <puppet_template_file.erb>"
return;
fi
/usr/bin/erb -P -x -T '-' $1 | /usr/bin/ruby -c
}
-g
