Issue #6028 has been updated by Nigel Kersten. Status changed from Needs More Information to Rejected
I think you've got it around the wrong way and we're not picking it up. $factpath is where the facts are read from. $libdir is where the plugins are synced to. If you incorrectly set libdir to /var/lib/puppet, then the facts would sync to /var/lib/puppet/facter and a factpath of that location would work. It sounds like you're doing something odd with either confusing factsync/pluginsync, or setting vardir badly. This is pretty much impossible to protect against, but if you find more specific info, please feel free to reopen. ---------------------------------------- Bug #6028: first run of puppet agent removes everything in /var/lib/puppet/ https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6028 Author: Sandro Janke Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: We are in the process of migrating to puppet 2.6.x. Our master is running puppet 2.6.4 and I am updating all clients to the same version. The master has been rebuild from scratch on RHEL 6 Beta (soon to be upgraded to RHEL 6). On clients running Fedora 14 or RHEL 6 Beta puppet agent commits suicide on the first run: 1. stop puppet agent 2. remove /var/lib/puppet/ssl 3. run 'puppet agent --test --waitforcert 30' Puppet agent creates the CSR which I sign on the master. Once puppet agent continues it removes all directories in /var/lib/puppet. All that is left after the run is /var/lib/puppet/facter The same procedure works fine on a Fedora 13 node. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
