I'm creating a manifest to install LAMP on a CentOS 6 machine. Everything works except for installing some pear modules. When issuing puppet /etc/puppet/modules/webserver/manifests/init.pp I get the following:
Invalid package provider 'pear' at /etc/puppet/modules/webserver/manifests/init.pp:111
Here are the relevant parts of the manifest, including the order of includes at the bottom:
class php {
package {'php':
ensure => present,
before => File['/etc/php.ini'],
}
file {'/etc/php.ini':
ensure => file,
}
$packagelist = [
"php-cli",
"php-common",
"php-devel",
"php-gd",
"php-ldap",
"php-mbstring",
"php-mssql",
"php-mysql",
"php-pear",
"php-pecl-ssh2",
"php-xml"
]
package { $packagelist:
ensure => installed,
require => Package['php'],
notify => Service['httpd'],
}
class pear {
package {
"pear":
ensure => installed,
provider => 'pear';
"pecl/zip":
ensure => installed,
provider => 'pear';
}
}
include php
include pear
I can comment out the include pear line at the bottom, and the rest installs without a hitch. rpm -qa | grep php-pear shows that package php-pear was successfully installed. Issuing pear at a prompt returns the expected pear help menu.
If I return to the init.pp file, and uncomment include pear and re-run puppet /etc/puppet/modules/webserver/manifests/init.pp, the same error appears.
What gives?
