Title: Message Title

Aaron Hilton created an issue   Puppet / PUP-11727 Restrictive umask on compiler causes errors after upgrade Issue Type: Improvement Affects Versions: PUP 7.21.0 Assignee: Unassigned Components: Compiler Created: 2023/01/31 8:52 AM Environment: RHEL 7 PE 2023.0 Priority: Normal Reporter: Aaron Hilton Customer upgraded from 2021.7.1 to 2023.0 and all compilers except one were reporting as operational in the Console GUI except one. Running puppet infra status came back with no issues for affected compiler and all services were running on the compiler. The puppetserver.log file on the affected compiler was flooded with the error Facter Error loading fact /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/lib/facter/pe_postgresql_info.rb: no such file to load -- /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/lib/pe_install/pe_postgresql_info.rb Further investigation found that the parent directories of these files did not have sufficient permissions for the pe-puppet user to access them causing the error. 50332369    4 drwx------  16 root     root         4096 Jan 30 17:07 /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/lib 41943474    0 drwx------   2 root     root            6 Jan 30 17:05 /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/locales It was determined that this compiler was running with umask set as 0077, causing the insufficient permissions. Deleting the /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache directory and running (umask 0022 && /opt/puppetlabs/bin/puppet plugin download) resolved the issue.   Please adjust the service or agent as necessary to enforce propper permissions on these directories.
