Hi, First I just want to say I find this a very useful project. In implementing it I encounter a few issue which I would like to document here. I am working with a bunch of RHEL 4 and RHEL 5 servers. I installed the epel RPM packages for EL4 and EL5. I noticed that #func testserver call rpms inventory returns a empty list. for both EL4 and EL5 servers. After some digging I found that the inventory function in rpms.py is commented out so it will never work. Removing the comments did not help. OK so I installed func-0.25 on the overlord and minion with the certmaster also updated to 0.25. Now I find that RpmModule does not load. I checked on the rpms.py line 56 mi = (ts.dbMatch() if pattern == '' else self.glob(pattern)) has a syntax error. On EL5 uses python-2.4. could this be the problem ? I commented out the entire verify function ( which has the problematic line of code ) and now the rpms inventory works very nicely. I notice another thing about the verify function. I believe that the RpmModule is suppose to provide the ability to handle rpm function for systems that do use yum like EL4. So it is not appropriate for the verify function in rpms.py to use the yum module to verify the packages. thats all thks & rgds Jimmy _______________________________________________ Func-list mailing list Func-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/func-list
