| When I run a plan against nodes on GCP, I always see the following non-fatal error:
Facter throws ``Error while resolving custom fact fact='<module_name>'`

Description On 1 of 3 nodes with only puppet installed, i.e., not enrolled with a primary PE:
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ hostname -f |
cd4pe01-9c8d30-0.us-west1-c.c.customer-support-scratchpad.internal |
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ puppet --version |

root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ facter --version |
4.3.1 |
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$
|
Given the following ``usage::dummy`` plan beneath my ``usage`` module and a bolt inventory of 3 GCP nodes (not enrolled with any PE primary):
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ cat plans/dummy.pp |
# @summary A dummy plan for testing small changes |
# @param targets The targets to run on. |
plan usage::dummy ( |
TargetSpec $targets = 'localhost', |
) { |
apply_prep($targets) |
apply($targets) { |
notify { 'Hello, world!': } |
} |
} |
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ bolt inventory show |
The project 'usage' shadows an existing module of the same name [ID: project_shadows_module] |
Targets |

Inventory source |

|
Additional information |
Use the '--targets', '--query', or '--rerun' option to view specific targets |
Use the '--detail' option to view target configuration and data

When I run the plan from my ``usage`` module root I see a non-fatal error for each node like this:

and shown in more detail like this for all 3 nodes:

However, if I add a simple external fact to one of the nodes ``cd4pe01-9c8d30-0`` as follows
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ cat /opt/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d/usage.sh |
#!/bin/sh |
|
echo "usage='hello world'" |
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$
|
Then the error disappears for the ``cd4pe01-9c8d30-0`` node, e.g., 
root@cd4pe01-9c8d30-0 usage (development)$ pbpr dummy --targets=all |
/opt/puppetlabs/bin/bolt plan run usage::dummy --targets=all --verbose |

I'd like to be able to run the plan without having to place an external fact as a workaround. |
