Hi, I am new to puppet...I have installed puppet on two machines 1. Master : hostname : master os :centos 6.5 puppet version: 3.7.4 (Puppet Enterprise 3.7.2)

2.client. hostname : newclient os :centos 6.5 puppet version: 3.7.4 (Puppet Enterprise 3.7.2)

Manifest details /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/manifests/site.pp

node "newclient" {

  file { "/root/helloworld.txt":
    ensure => file,
    owner  => "root",
    group  => "root",
    mode   => 0644
  }

}

After creating this manifest I run the following command in client but nothing works out

sudo puppet agent --verbose --no-daemonize --onetime
Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
Info: Retrieving plugin
Info: Loading facts
Info: Caching catalog for newclient.localdomain
Info: Applying configuration version '1427054941'
Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.02 seconds

..Please Help

The answer is in your agent output. You've defined the file for an node named 'newclient', but as you can see in the output, your node's name is actually 'newclient.localdomain'

I tried with this name as well. After following puppet document at https://docs.puppetlabs.com/pe/latest...starthelloworld.html this solution works fine but this time the location is '/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/environments/production/modules/testing/manifests'

here I have teo files

init.pp

cat init.pp include test

2.test.pp

class testing::test{

user { 'ironman': ensure => 'present', comment => 'again by puppet', gid => '0', home => '/home/ironman', password => '$6$JzWFXB.4/BaSILCJ$6UqQP6IzEb92BwO5cN0tXqkb7LXgNFVOrRQYvKrFe.7NDYQ0J2.Y0C0.5peTMPGBjUblewL6pUs5Aa/19XQUQ0', passwordmaxage => '99999', passwordminage => '0', shell => '/bin/bash', uid => '1112', } }

and I am adding this module to the group 'default' from web page. and this time it works.

but nothing happens in the previous case where I create a site.pp file with following content

node "newclient.localdomain" {

file { "/root/helloworld.txt": ensure => file, owner => "root", group => "root", mode => 0644, content => "yahooooo", }

}

however the above code executes on master server with 'puppet apply site.pp' but on the client output is same... Info: Retrieving pluginfacts Info: Retrieving plugin Info: Loading facts Info: Caching catalog for newclient.localdomain Info: Applying configuration version '1427096942' Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.37 seconds

and file does not get created after.

If you're using console, I don't think it will use a node definition in site.pp. You need to put all your code into modules and use the console to add them to a server, or include them in a class that is getting added to a server.
