Fix verfied in: puppet=>â2.6.7-35-gec3178fâ, facter=>â1.5.8â Test checked in: [email protected]:puppetlabs/puppet-acceptance.git 41600e3..a7d5ff9 master -> master ---------------------------------------- Bug #5303: Puppet master fails when run as root due to inability to create rrd directory https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5303 Author: Paul Berry Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: reports Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.3 Keywords: Branch: While setting up the demo machine, Nick and I got the following error: Could not run: Got 1 failure(s) while initializing: change from absent to directory failed: Could not set 'directory on ensure: Permission denied - /var/lib/puppet/rrd We're not sure what happened. We used "sudo puppet master --mkusers" to create the puppet user, and we tried "sudo puppet master" a few times. It looks like perhaps Puppet is trying to create the /var/lib/puppet/rrd dir after giving up root permissions? Also probably a problem (perhaps the cause): we notice that it's not creating the puppet user as a system user, and therefore its home directory is not /var/lib/puppet. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
