[Puppet Users] Cipher is not a module

Hi,

I''m trying to install puppet as a client on a new machine.
I received this weird error when trying to start up as /etc/init.d/
puppet start :
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/openssl/cipher.rb:22: Cipher is not a module
(TypeError)
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
36:in `gem_original_require''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
36:in `require''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/openssl.rb:20
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:

36:in `require''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/ssl.rb:3
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
36:in `gem_original_require''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:
36:in `require''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet.rb:155
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/application.rb:271:in

        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/command_line.rb:
60:in `new''
        from /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/util/command_line.rb:
60:in `execute''
        from /usr/bin/puppet:4

My Linux is 2.6.18-274.3.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue Sep 6 20:13:52 EDT 2011
x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
which is a Centos 5.6

and the packages I installed using yum install are:
ruby-libs-1.8.7.352-5.el5
ruby-libs-1.8.5-5.el5_4.8
rubygem-activesupport-2.1.1-2.el5
ruby-1.8.7.352-5.el5
ruby-augeas-0.4.1-1.el5
ruby-irb-1.8.7.352-5.el5
rubygems-1.8.10-1.el5
rubygem-activerecord-2.1.1-2.el5
ruby-shadow-1.4.1-7.el5
ruby-rdoc-1.8.7.352-5.el5
libselinux-ruby-1.33.4-5.7.el5
facter-1.6.3-1.el5
puppet-2.7.6-2.el5
puppet-server-2.7.6-2.el5

I even removed the /usr/lib/ruby before reinstalling but it doesn''t
work. Funny thing is , it worked for my puppet master and one of my
clients, and repeated the same way for this machine, but I kept
getting this "Cipher is not a module" error. Please point out what
I''m
missing...

thanks,
K

Re: [Puppet Users] Cipher is not a module

It''s highly suspect that you have ruby-libs 1.8.5 and 1.8.7 installed.
Might want to see about removing 1.8.5. Also, what does ruby -r
openssl -e ''puts OpenSSL::VERSION'' -e ''puts
OpenSSL::OPENSSL_VERSION''
-e ''puts OpenSSL::Cipher.class'' output?

Re: [Puppet Users] Cipher is not a module

I too am having this issue. I''ve noticed that there are quite a few
posts available on Google that seem to talk about this, but all of them
recommend removing libraries which supposedly solve the problem. Not so in my
case...

Initially I realized that I did have some i386 and i686 libraries installed. I
removed all of them and I know have the following:

ruby-devel-1.8.7.352-5.el5
ruby-libs-1.8.7.352-5.el5
ruby-1.8.7.352-5.el5


Running the command you recommend, I get the following output:

1.0.0
OpenSSL 0.9.8e-rhel5 01 Jul 2008
Class


I''m using RVM on this server currently, and I''ve uninstalled
and reinstalled Ruby, as well as deleted and reinstalled the gemset.

ruby 1.8.7 (2010-01-10 patchlevel 249) [x86_64-linux]

Not sure what to do at this point, other than build another instance.
I''m trying to use a specific version of Ruby (1.8.7-p249) that was
"known to work" (at least until this point). It works on my local
development workstation, so I guess I just need to keep plugging away to find
out what''s broken.

This is clearly a Ruby issue; Nevertheless, thanks for any insight!
