I am running into an odd issue in Puppet 4.8.0 running under Foreman 1.13.2
When, on the master, I run *puppet master --verbose --compile myserver.domain.com *I get an error on basic facts with "Unknown Variable". I have had this happen on multiple classes. puppet master --verbose --compile myserver.domain.com Info: Caching node for myserver.domain.com Warning: Unknown variable: '::osfamily'. at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/development/modules/pam/manifests/init.pp:85:8 Warning: Unknown variable: '::osfamily'. at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/development/modules/pam/manifests/init.pp:353:100 Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Pam is only supported on RedHat and Suse osfamilies. Your osfamily is identified as <>. at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/development/modules/pam/manifests/init.pp:353:7 on node myserver.domain.com Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Function Call, Pam is only supported on RedHat and Suse osfamilies.

Your osfamily is identified as <>. at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/development/modules/pam/manifests/init.pp:353:7 on node myserver.domain.com For reference the pam/manifests/init.pp: Line 85: case $::osfamily { Line 353: fail("Pam is only supported on RedHat and Suse osfamilies. Your osfamily is identified as <${::osfamily}>.") The odd part here is that when I run the command with --debug I see that it resolves osfamily from the hosts's facts yaml file: Debug: Facter: fact "osfamily" has resolved to "RedHat". Do I need to make some sort of modification or setup change to ensure it picks up the files correctly? This box worked fine previously when I was running a version < 4.8.0 as I used it to do a lot of my coding and testing via the puppet master --compile <server name> to verify the code was compiling properly on the master. Now the other odd thing is that the catalog compiles fine when I run puppet agent --test --verbose on myserver.domain.com. So it seems somehow ties to the *puppet master --compile* process. Anyone able to point me where to look check that I don't have a bad config setting or something similar? Could this be a bug in Puppet 4.8.0? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
