Hmm. You appear to be correct - we've changed the semantics in a non-backward-compatible way. The only way around it, at this point, is to selectively set the alias for older clients and host_alias for new clients. Yuck. Anyone have any ideas? ---------------------------------------- Bug #2813: Aliases can no longer be used as resource names in references? http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2813 Author: Tim Stoop Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: RAL Target version: 0.25.2 Affected version: 0.25.1 Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/0.25.x/2813 Hi there, I have a very simple (part of a) manifest: <pre> host { "nfs": alias => "nfs.ip", ip => "10.2.0.10", } nfs_mount { "/srv/oracle": source => "nfs.ip:/path/to/mount", require => Host["nfs.ip"], } </pre> This gives me the error: <pre>err: Could not apply complete catalog: Could not retrieve dependency 'Host[nfs.ip]' of Nfs_mount[/srv/oracle] at manifestfile:123</pre> This worked in 0.24.8. Actually, when I revert to the 0.24.8 client but keep the puppetmaster at 0.25.1, it still works. Only after upgrading the client to 0.25.1 it breaks. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to help fix this. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
