---------------------------------------- Bug #5212: With Puppet standalone, exported facts are overriding local facts https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5212 Author: Jordan Sissel Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: exported resources Target version: 2.6.6 Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2 Keywords: exported facts override local Branch: I have custom facts that are being overriden by the values stored in the storeconfig database. That is, if I run 'FACTERLIB=/path/to/puppet/facts facter' I see the correct fact, but when I run puppet I see the old value. On a hunch, I did this in my storeconfigs mysql db: <pre> mysql> delete from fact_names; Query OK, 126 rows affected (0.03 sec) mysql> delete from fact_values; Query OK, 4075 rows affected (0.12 sec) </pre> It is not relevant w hether the above is an unsupported operation - I am just hacking and debugging right now ;) Here's the result: % sudo puppet --modulepath /opt/puppet/modules --verbose --no-use_cached_catalog --storeconfigs --thin_storeconfigs --ignorecache /opt/puppet/manifests/site.pp info: Loading facts in truth info: Loading facts in rightscale info: Loading facts in zookeeper info: Connecting to mysql database: puppet warning: Host is missing hostname and/or domain: solr13-1.prod.loggly.net err: Scope(Node[default]): Unsupported operatingsystem: '' info: Caching catalog for solr13-1.prod.loggly.net info: Applying configuration version '1289001996' notice: /Stage[main]//Node[default]/Exec[apt refresh]/returns: executed successfully </pre> So if the facts table is empty, the node can't find its facts. This is very strange. So I try this: <pre> mysql> delete from hosts; Query OK, 37 rows affected (0.01 sec) </pre> And things start working... Basically, it seems like facts stored in the storeconfig db override local facts, which seems like a bug to me given it prevents facts from changing.
