Bug #791: Users and groups created mid-transaction are not found
http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/791

Author: porridge
Status: Closed
Priority: Normal
Assigned to: jamtur01

Target version: 0.24.6
Complexity: Medium
Patch: None
Affected version: 0.24.4
Keywords: 


I recently noticed the following:

<pre>
Aug 23 18:09:35 extdns03 puppetdr987: [ID 702911 daemon.error] 
(//extdns03/common_foglight/foglight_agents_setup/Exec[/opt/foglight/script/setup.sh])
 Failed to call refresh on Exec[/opt/foglight/script/setup.sh]: Invalid user: 
foglight
</pre>

While I'm reasonably sure that the user did exist at that point. So after long 
and painful debugging I did the following:

<pre>
extdns01# RUBYLIB=. irb
irb(main):001:0> require 'puppet'
=> true
irb(main):002:0> Puppet::Util.uid('boom')
=> nil

[ Now, in a different window, ran "adduser boom" ]

irb(main):003:0> Puppet::Util.uid('boom')
=> nil
irb(main):004:0>
</pre>

I guess puppet should flush the uid/gid cache on any user/group operation, or 
possibly even every time.
