1.2.6rc1 Release Notes
==(#12658) Add robots.txt to dashboard
Without this patch, in the default install of puppet dashboard,
internet bots can crawl and index puppet dashboard sites.
This patch adds a robots.txt file to dashboard that prevents
crawling by all bot types of the whole site.
(#12484) Strips whitespace from parameter keys
Parameter keys for groups and nodes aren''t allowed to have
trailing spaces. This commit adds a filter before validation
that strips these spaces.
(#12476) Add context to install.rake exceptions
Tasks inside lib/tasks/install.rake could throw SocketErrors when
attempting to contact the CA server that did not give sufficient context
as to what connection was failing. This could produce the ultimately
unhelpful error message of:
(in /opt/puppet/share/puppet-dashboard)
rake aborted!
getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
This adds exception handling that will add the relevant context to the
exception and re-raise it. In this case, we would get
(in /opt/puppet/share/puppet-dashboard)
rake aborted!
Unable to contact ca_server example.unreachable.foo: getaddrinfo:
Name or service not known
So when the task fails, there''s a clear explanation for what
exactly is
failing.
(#10562) Adds header so IE8 users can download nodes.csv
Due to IE8''s idiosyncrasies, the following header is necessary
for its users to successfully download /nodes.csv
Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
(#10901) Adds Selenium documentation. Removes selenium_spec/
Shows the user how to run Selenium acceptance tests locally. Removes
the selenium_spec/ directory. Selenium tests now live in
acceptance/selenium/
(#10555) sets default language of Dashboard to English
Setting the lang and xml:lang attributes explicitly ensures
that Chrome will not interpret the page as anything other
than English. This avoids weird "translate" messages as seen
in #10555 (https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10555).
(#10562) Adds header so IE8 users can download nodes.csv
Due to IE8''s idiosyncrasies, the following header is necessary
for its users to successfully download /nodes.csv
Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0
(#6739) Remove RELEASE_NOTES.md from Dashboard
The RELEASE_NOTES.md file used to be used in a version number link
dashboard. Since changing the version link happened in the 1.2.0
timeframe, the file wasn''t removed.
This minor fix remotes the file, and references to it in the packaging
bits of Dashboard.
(#4890)
Add example configuration for using basic auth with Dashboard
Pending a fix for issue #7173, Puppet can''t submit reports to a
server that
requires authentication. A known way to get around this is to provide
exceptions in Dashboard''s security configuration for retrieving
node
definitions and submitting reports. This commit adds a commented-out section
to the example vhost file to do exactly that.
Remove AllowOverride AuthConfig from example vhost
Unless you consider its javascript and CSS files to be confidential,
there is absolutely no situation where you''d use an .htaccess file
to override
auth for Dashboard, because access to locations in a Rails app
can''t be
controlled with a directory override. This commit kills a misleading example
line that implied this was possible.
Init Script Improvements
Adding a force-reload for LSB compliance.
All LSB compliant scripts require a force-reload. In dashboard''s
case, since there is no configuration reload mechanism, its just a
restart.
Removing duplicated exits.
Every statement in this case exits on the return value. So instead of
duplicating those exits just fall through to a single exit.
Fixing exit code for default case.
In case of an error while processing any init-script actions the init script
should exit with a status code of 2, invalid or excess argument(s).
