Hey all, I've been trying to get EC2 facts working with the open source edition. I changed the code for ec2.rb and util/ec2.rb according to the master branch on Github(https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter). And testing the code with a 'facter' call seems to work fine. I can see all the EC2 information. Now when I run Puppet and ask for the global variable (e.g. $::ec_ami_id) it is empty. Manual testing shows that running 'facter -d -p' as myself (non-root user) and as root results in different output. Has anybody observed this issue before and maybe an idea on what might be going wrong here? Any help is greatly appreciated!
My Puppet version is 3.3.0 My Facter version is 1.7.3 Environment is Ubuntu 12.04 on an Amazon EC2 instance Sensitive information has been <removed>! ;) Running 'facter -d -p' as root shows: Relative directory ./facter removed from search path.
