Issue #8239 has been updated by John Florian.
I'm consistently experiencing this bug. I get one more zombie every time
puppet executes the custom module fact shown below. This is with
puppet-2.6.6-1.fc15.noarch and facter-1.6.0-2.fc15.noarch on Fedora 15. Please
let me know if I can provide other details. (This immediately reminded me of
the problems I saw and reported when I created #2211, but I see that's already
linked here.)
<pre>
Facter.add("plant_number") do
begin
gw = IO.popen("/sbin/ip route show 0.0.0.0/0").read().split()[2]
if gw
plant = "%02d" % gw.split(".")[1]
else
plant = nil
end
end
setcode do
plant
end
end
</pre>

Author: Giles Constant
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Adrien Thebo
Category: agent
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.1
Keywords: getconf zombie defunct
Branch:
I'm seeing this..
[root@xxxxx001 ~]# pstree |grep getconf
|-puppetd---574*[getconf]
574 getconf zombies!
root 32530 17822 0 Jun27 ? 00:00:00 [getconf] <defunct>
root 32532 17822 0 Jun29 ? 00:00:00 [getconf] <defunct>
root 32546 17822 0 Jul05 ? 00:00:00 [getconf] <defunct>
...etc...
Facter version 1.5.8, Puppet 2.6.6.
I've had a look at the old bug relating to 'timeout' in resolution.rb, but
setting it to an integer other than 0 didn't make the problem go away.
