ok, I found it (partially).
It is caused by $stdout.reopen(tempfile) in puppet's execute function
in utils.rb
It's further caused by rb_scan_args in ruby's class.c - did not
investigate why exactly ...
Here is how to reproduce in irb:
require 'tempfile'
t = Tempfile.new("puppet")
begin
$stderr.reopen(t)
rescue => detail
puts detail
puts detail.backtrace
end
[pxmgt1] ruby > ruby test.rb
wrong number of arguments (2 for 1)
test.rb:5:in `respond_to?'
test.rb:5:in `reopen'
test.rb:5
This problem seem only to exists on RHEL4 / Ruby ruby 1.8.7
(2008-05-31 patchlevel 0) [i686-linux]
The way I fixed it just by replacing the following two lines in
utils.rb (puppet):
#$stdout.reopen(output_file)
#$stderr.reopen(error_file)
$stdout.reopen(output_file.path,"w")
$stderr.reopen(error_file.path,"w")
