Title: Message Title

Steve Traylen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-7577 augeas does not error if no suitable lens found Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.8.1 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2017/05/19 12:59 AM Environment: puppet-agent-1.8.2.10.g44e8319-1.ai7.x86_64 Labels: augeas Priority: Normal Reporter: Steve Traylen There are various similar reports but I could not find an existing bug. Running an augeas type when a suitable lens cannot be found results in no augeas change and so no puppet notification. Running pupept apply with augeas { 'testing': context => '/tmp/junk.txt', changes => ['set max_files 32768'], } results in Debug: Augeas[testing](provider=augeas): Will attempt to save and only run if files changed Debug: Augeas[testing](provider=augeas): sending command 'set' with params ["/tmp/junk.txt/max_files", "32768"] Debug: Augeas[testing](provider=augeas): Skipping because no files were changed Debug: Augeas[testing](provider=augeas): Closed the augeas connection and a successful puppet run. The existance or not of the file /tmp/junk.txt is irrelevent. The documentation does recomend to sut the incl attribute which subsequently gives you an error but I feel the command above should some how fail, maybe setting a incl should just be mandetory anyway. For the real case of this burning us when we switched from non AIO puppet to AIO puppet-agent we lost the lens. /usr/share/augeas/lenses/libvirtd_qemu.aug provided by a qemu package as the ldpath to augeas changed dropping the system path. Not finding a suitable lens resulted in successful puppet run but no error or action on the file.
