Re: Problem with plugins

[Andrew Mayhew]

I ran into this problem in older versions of cfengine, but I do not know if
what I did to fix this still applies.  In the control: section I found that
you needed to define all the classes that could be defined through modules
using the AddInstallable directive, like the following:

control:
  AddInstallable = ( policy.foo.bar )
  
The above example would mean that the classes policy, foo, and bar could be
added or turned on through a module.  

Hope that helps.
