I just built a new puppet master, and whenever I run puppet on it, it
throws an error while processing a service resource:

# puppet agent -t
> Info: Retrieving plugin
> Info: Caching catalog for i-45dc2b1d
> Info: Applying configuration version ''g
> 9ea47ad19bc706a754c00f00a024309948d3ea03''
> Error: /Stage[main]/Ipa::Client::Basic/Service[sssd]: Could not evaluate:
> invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII
> Notice: Finished catalog run in 15.37 seconds


The debug output:

Debug: Executing ''/sbin/status sssd''
> Debug: Executing ''/sbin/initctl --version''
> Error: /Stage[main]/Ipa::Client::Basic/Service[sssd]: Could not evaluate:
> invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII



This is what the manifest for that resource looks like:

> service { ''sssd'':
>   ensure     => running,
>   enable     => true,
>   hasstatus  => true,
>   hasrestart => true,
>   require    => [ Package[''sssd''],
File[''/etc/sssd/sssd.conf''], ],
> }



This is with ubuntu 12.04 and puppet 3.1
Any ideas?
