Hi,
I have been running for a few weeks puppet 3.7.5 + puppetserver 1.0.2
with the future parser enabled and stringify_facts disabled. I had to
do some minor fixing to get everything to work (mostly due to facts
type change), but it went overall quite well.
Now I have decided to take the next step : puppet 4.0.0 !
All set up, the exact same code *fails* :
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER: undefined method `key_attributes' for nil:NilClass
Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
Ouch! And I was telling everyone that the new parser was sooo much
better at reporting errors. So much for that.
I still haven't tracked the problem down completely, but after
disabling modules one by one, I know in which module it lies, so I've
disabled it for now.
But next I'm seeing weird things, where a user's home wasn't created
and where another was created but subsequent runs complain about his
name because it contains 'é' :
Error: Could not convert change 'comment' to string: incompatible
character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT
Error: Could not convert change 'comment' to string: incompatible
character encodings: UTF-8 and ASCII-8BIT
Error: /Stage[main]/Exyz::Common/Exyz::Shell_user[benja]/User[benja]:
Could not evaluate: Puppet::Util::Log requires a message
I never had that error with the same user and Puppet 2.x and 3.x
before. And a quick search doesn't come up with much relevant.
This is a RHEL7 system with the default LANG=en_US.UTF-8...
Not going so well so far, I was really hoping for less differences
between 3.7 with the future parser and 4.0. I will post followups if
anyone is interested.
