Could not find class when running puppet apply with modulepath

Running puppet apply with the modulepath switch fails with Error: Could not find class apt for vagrant.example.com on node vagrant.example.com

Puppet version is 3.7.3 running on Ubuntu 14.04 managed by Vagrant and VirtualBox

This is the command I'm running:

sudo puppet apply --debug --verbose --modulepath '/tmp/vagrant-puppet-3/modules-0' /tmp/vagrant-puppet-3/manifests/default.pp

The output

vagrant@vagrant:~$ sudo puppet apply --debug --verbose --modulepath '/tmp/vagrant-puppet-3/modules-0'  /tmp/vagrant-puppet-3/manifests/default.pp

Running puppet module list with same modulepath does indeed list the modules (including puppetlabs-apt which I'm refering to), albeit with dependencies warnings.

vagrant@vagrant:~$ puppet module list --debug --verbose --modulepath '/tmp/vagrant-puppet-3/modules-0'

The strange thing is that puppet module list seems to be finding the modules, but referring to any of the modules in my manifest file fails (same class error if I try to include postgresql). I have a feeling that my manifest file is wrong. Am I missing something obvious here?

Cheers

Solution

  • rename the module folder puppetlabs-apt to apt

    or change the pp code

    from

    include apt

    to

    include puppetlabs-apt

    Depend on how you defined in apt pp file.
