Puppet users - Apr 2013 - Hiera error in Puppet: undefined method `empty?'

Hello,

I have spent the past several days unsuccessfully trying to get hiera-gpg 
to work. Can anyone help me understand what I am doing wrong? I am using 
Puppet Enterprise 2.7.2 (as a proof of concept).

Right now, I just have a simple class where I look up a password and 
display it. I intend to use that password for subsequent operations. 

class hiera_test {
        $lookup = hiera("appadminpwd")
        #Test hiera functionality
        exec { "hiera_test":
                command => "curl -s -f -u admin:$lookup 
http://localhost/configure.html",
                path   => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin",
        }

        notify { "Password is: $lookup": }
}



The error I always receive is:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
undefined method `empty?'' for #<Puppet::Util::Log:0x7f137e3566d0>
at
/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/modules/mod1/manifests/hiera_test.pp:2 on node 
ireland



The error message indicates to me that the lookup from Hiera is failing.

The strange part is that I can run hiera from the command line successfully:

/opt/puppet/bin# ./hiera appadminpwd
apppassword

/usr/local/bin# ./hiera appadminpwd

apppassword 


I have a hiera.yaml in /etc/hiera.yaml and also in 
/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/hiera.yaml. Thanks for any assistance - I did see a 
similar post a month ago, but there was no resolution.

Thanks,
John

I just figured out the error. The keyring had the wrong ownership 
permissions!

I guess writing out the problem can help figure out the issue. Hope this 
will help someone else save time and effort.

How so?

Anyway, first debugging steps:

1. Does the error disappear when you set $lookup = ''foo''

2. Does the error disapper when you change the variable name, say $foo
hiera(...)

3. Does the error disappear when you comment out the other declarations
in the class body?

Thanks,
Felix
