Puppet users - Nov 2011 - Could not render to b64_zlib_yaml after 2.6.12 upgrade

Hi,

I just reinstalled puppet to version 2.6.12 to patch the security bug. Now all
of my RHEL4 clients are getting this error:
Puppet master is running 2.7.6
Clients are running 2.6.12


puppet-agent[11444]: Starting Puppet client version 2.6.12
slcdbnops1 puppet-agent[11444]: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could
not render to b64_zlib_yaml: uninitialized constant Base64


Any ideas?  Is this a ruby problem?

Hi,

I can''t remember for sure but I believe the clients can''t be
at a higher level than the master.

sure sounds like a ruby problem - which version of ruby? (RHELv4 has a really
ancient version of ruby and clearly you would be better served by installing
something like enterprise ruby or rvm to manage a separate ruby install)
