Having an odd issue with the facts inside an ERB template. I'm using the facts to build a somewhat dynamic MOTD. I made some changes to init.pp for the module and deployed to my Dev environment and it started breaking things. It started off with not being able to find a value for lsbdistdescription Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Failed to parse template motd/motd.erb: Filepath: /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/parser/templatewrapper.rb Line: 81 Detail: Could not find value for 'lsbdistdescription' at /etc/puppet/environments/development/modules/motd/templates/motd.erb:10 at /etc/puppet/environments/development/modules/motd/manifests/init.pp:44 on node cbe01d.example.com Looking into the issue the only thing I found was that facts should now have an @ sign in front of them. Changing that didn't help. I have reverted back to the old code and its still broken. Oddly enough, it works as expected when I go to the server and run $ sudo puppet agent -t. It applies the lsbdistdescription to MOTD, then the puppet daemon fires off after 30minutes and does not acknowledge lsbdistdescription. Here is the current template: +++++++++++++++++: System Data :+++++++++++++++++++ + Hostname = <%= hostname %> + Domain = <%= domain %> + Address = <%= ipaddress_eth0 %> + OS: <%= @lsbdistdescription %> <%= architecture %> + Kernel = <%= kernelrelease %> + Uptime = <%= uptime %> + CPU = <%= processorcount %>x <%= processor0 %> + Total Memory = <%= memorysize %> + Managed by Puppet version <%= puppetversion %> <% if @extra -%> + Extra Info = <%= @extra %> <% end -%> +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Any ideas why only manual runs work as expected? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
