No matching sls found for 'dnsinstall.sls' in env 'base'

I'm setting up a DNS server using salt-stack. But the env=base is going wrong somewhere

First, run with salt 'ubuntu' state.apply dnsinstall:

ubuntu:

Summary for ubuntu

Succeeded: 3 (changed=2)

Failed: 0

Total states run: 3 Total run time: 19.354 s

But when I 2nd run the same code:

ubuntu:

Data failed to compile:

No matching SLS found for 'dnsinstall.sls' in env 'base'

I also make a file.managed to push to the config file and also have the same problems:

quan@quanlm:/srv/salt$ sudo salt '*' state.apply dnsconfig.sls

ubuntu:

Data failed to compile:

No matching sls found for 'dnsconfig.sls' in env 'base'

But when I try to run this line:

sudo salt-run fileserver.file_list saltenv=base

dnsconfig.sls
dnsinstall.sls
named.conf.options

The saltenv=base contains those file

My dnsconfig.sls

deploy the config file:

file.managed:

- name: /etc/bindnamed.conf.options

- source: salt://named.conf.options

- mode: 644

My dnsinstall.sls

install bind9:

pkg.installed:

- pkgs:

  - bind9

  - bind9utils

  - bind9-doc

Where I'm wrong at, I don't understand why it won't work normally

Solution

😁 well, that's my classic "back from holidays" mistake... You may not include the file extension when running the command:

No matching SLS found for 'dnsinstall.sls'

I guess you used this command line:

Salt ubuntu state.apply dnsinstall.sls

When you should use:

Salt ubuntu state.apply dnsinstall

Note the missing .sls in the second and correct call.
