Are you certain that the apt and motd classes are correctly receiving their parameters from Hiera? If their definitions happen to provide default values for all parameters, then a failure to look up parameter values in hiera would not cause catalog building to fail for them. It could be that Hiera is misconfigured, so that it's not providing *any* data. Have you restarted the master since last updating the data? I'm never sure any more what exactly Puppet caches, or when, but you can ensure that its caches are flushed by restarting the master (the service, not necessarily the whole machine). Have you looked in the master's logs for diagnostics that might be relevant? John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
