Jeff Sparrow commented on FACT-1777   Re: `load': cannot load such file - LoadError > You'll want to put C:\Program Files\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin before the sys\ruby\bin. I have not changed %PATH% beyond what installing puppet does. However, this is a server that originally had puppet<3.7.3>/facter<2.3.0> installed. Is upgrading from -> to those versions not supported, or is there an upgrade path that we need to follow? > Also, I'm not sure what facter - is expected to do... In the past, facter -<something> would allow me to actually do useful things with facter: eg; C:\Users\Administrator>facter -help facter(8) -- Gather system information ======   SYNOPSIS --------   Collect and display facts about the system.   USAGE -----   facter [-h|--help] [-t|--timing] [-d|--debug] [-p|--puppet] [-v|--version] [-y|--yaml] [-j|--json] [--plaintext] [--external-dir DIR] [--no-external-dir] [fact] [fact] [...]   DESCRIPTION -----------   Collect and display facts about the current system. The library behind Facter is easy to expand, making Facter an easy way to collect information about a system from within the shell or within Ruby.   If no facts are specifically asked for, then all facts will be returned.   EXAMPLE -------   Display all facts:   $ facter architecture => amd64 blockdevices => sda,sr0 domain => example.com fqdn => puppet.example.com hardwaremodel => x86_64 [...]   Display a single fact:   $ facter kernel Linux   Format facts as JSON:   $ facter --json architecture kernel hardwaremodel { "architecture": "amd64", "kernel": "Linux", "hardwaremodel": "x86_64" }   AUTHOR ------ Luke Kanies   COPYRIGHT --------- Copyright (c) 2011-2014 Puppet Labs, Inc Licensed under the Apache 2.0 license   OPTIONS ------- -y, --yaml Emit facts in YAML format. -j, --json Emit facts in JSON format. --plaintext Emit facts in plaintext format. --trace Enable backtraces. --external-dir DIR The directory to use for external facts. --no-external-dir Turn off external facts. -d, --debug Enable debugging. -t, --timing Enable timing. -p, --puppet Load the Puppet libraries, thus allowing Facter to load Puppet-specific facts. -v, --version Print the version and exit. -h, --help Print this help message.   C:\Users\Administrator>facter -v 2.3.0 The biggest benefit being the ability to call facter -p -y in order to collect facts and push them into a yaml, which we then send over to Foreman for fact updating and collection. Whereas now, we are just left with: C:/Program Files/Puppet Labs/Puppet/sys/ruby/bin/facter:23:in `load': cannot load such file -- C:/Program Files/Puppet Labs/Puppet/sys/ruby/lib/ruby/gems/2.1.0/gems/facter-3.6.7/bin/facter (LoadError) from C:/Program Files/Puppet Labs/Puppet/sys/ruby/bin/facter:23:in `<main>' on anything we try.
