Issue #4608 has been updated by Jonathon Anderson.
<blockquote>Is this new with 2.6.0? Do you get the same segfault on 0.25.x?</blockquote> We experienced the same general behavior on 0.25.x (and 0.24.x): x86-64 instances were generally stable, whereas PowerPC instances mysteriously died around once per day. (In general, we would restart the agent each morning when we came into the office.) However, I only actually tracked down the explicit segfault now, on 2.6, so I can't guarantee that it was the same error. (The segfault is not logged anywhere, even in a debug log, so I eventually tracked it down by running the agent in the foreground in a screen session.) ---------------------------------------- Bug #4608: segfault when running on PowerPC node http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4608 Author: Jonathon Anderson Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected version: 2.6.0 Keywords: Branch: The PowerPC nodes that run puppet in our environment experience periodic segfaults: /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/puppet-2.6.0/lib/puppet/provider/confine.rb:72: [BUG] Segmentation fault ruby 1.8.4 (2005-12-24) [powerpc-linux] A longer "verbose, debug" log is attached.
