Sorry, I should explained my issue: class apache ( $apache = hiera_hash('apache'), $mpm = $apache['mpm'], )
This code will produce the following error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: apache is not an hash or array when accessing it with mpm If I do not try to set mpm inside the class definition but inside the manifest it will work: class apache ( $apache = hiera_hash('apache'), ) { $mpm = $apache['mpm'] notify { "Hiera is: ${mpm}": } Again am I seeing a bug or is this not how I should be doing things?
