The thing it errors on is mod_auth_mellon which is not installed on that system.  Maybe it should be?

Assuming the server's hostname is moztrap2.webapp.scl3, the site 'intranet.mozilla.org' should *not* be deployed to this server. So installing Mellon is not the correct answer.

Is there a production outage?

Comment 2

[matthew devney [:jedi]]

No outage; merely alerts that puppet isn't running cleanly.

manifests/nodes/webapp.pp - moztrap[12] gets a webapp::base of genericrhel6.  That picks up modules/webapp/files/genericrhel6/etc-httpd/domains/intranet.mozilla.org.conf (same as generic[1-6]), and here we are.

[:Atoll]

That is .. completely insane. I had no idea. It may never get resolved.

Comment 6

[Eric Ziegenhorn :ericz]

moztrap.mozilla.org is served by the generic cluster which is maybe why these nodes were setup with that cluster name (right or wrong as it may be) -- does anyone know what these VMs do and why we have them in addition to the generic cluster?

Comment 7

[Greg Cox [:gcox]]

bug 1053979 - They're DR (in scl3) for the generic cluster (in phx1).

.....

Comment 8

[Eric Ziegenhorn :ericz]

Hmmm, that's a tricky one!  I suspect some of the genericrhel6 stuff in the node manifest is correct then like webapp::genericrhel6::keys, but I have some doubts about "cluster => 'genericrhel6'".  Moztrap is scheduled to be replaced by November, but we should probably try to fix this anyway and given these are the DR boxes hopefully the risk of breaking something is low.

Comment 9

[:Atoll]

In this case, just adding the missing Package[mod_auth_mellon] to the node definition for these servers should carry them through to their eventual shutdown.

Comment 11

[:Atoll]

added mellon => true to the production (CHG0010611) moztrap cluster definition in manifests/nodes/webapp.pp.
