Adam Bottchen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-8351 PA-437 fix causes failures when SCL version of pip is installed Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2018/01/12 10:38 AM Priority: Major Reporter: Adam Bottchen Starting in Puppet 5, we now unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH via a wrapper script around puppet and facter. Unfortunately, this causes problems when customers have the SCL version of pip installed on the system, as the LD_LIBRARY_PATH update is required. Repro: 1. Install a base 2017.3.2 system 2. Set up the SCL repo from CentOS extras: `yum install centos-release-scl` 3. Enable the SCL version of python27: `source /opt/rh/python27/enable` At that point, numerous related problems surface: Facter will fail on pe_postgresql_info: # /opt/puppetlabs/bin/facter -p pe_postgresql_info |grep server_version 2018-01-12 09:13:58.272017 ERROR puppetlabs.facter - error while resolving custom fact "pe_postgresql_info": undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass The self.instances for the package provider will fail: # puppet resource package --trace Error: Could not run: undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass Adding debug to the pip provider shows the error: # /opt/puppetlabs/bin/facter -p pe_postgresql_info --trace /opt/rh/python27/root/usr/bin/python2: error while loading shared libraries: libpython2.7.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory 2018-01-12 09:56:16.158237 ERROR puppetlabs.facter - error while resolving custom fact "pe_postgresql_info": undefined method `[]' for nil:NilClass backtrace: /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/provider/package/pip.rb:74:in `block (2 levels) in pip_version' /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/provider/package/pip.rb:72:in `each' This can be worked around by commenting out the unset of LD_LIBRARY_PATH in the wrapper: # sed -ie 's/unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH/#unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH/' /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/wrapper.sh Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.0.2#70111-sha1:88534db) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
