Issue #10490 has been updated by Ken Barber.
Are you seeing issues with venet0 interfaces in Virtuozzo not having mac addresses and therefore Puppet not being able to work at all? If so - Is there a way in Virtuozzo that you know of Ernesto to configure a mac address for these interfaces as a work around for this? I'm no Virtuozzo expert myself but I would hope this is the case. ---------------------------------------- Bug #10490: macaddress fact errors when no macadress can be found https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10490 Author: Stefan Schulte Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: library Target version: 1.6.x Keywords: Branch: Affected Facter version: In `lib/facter/macaddress.rb` facter runs `ifconfig -a` on Linux and returns the first occurrence of the following regex as the macaddress <pre> /(?:ether|HWaddr) (\w{1,2}:\w{1,2}:\w{1,2}:\w{1,2}:\w{1,2}:\w{1,2})/ </pre> But facter does not handle the case where none of the printed lines actually match the regular expression. E.g. (taken from #10392) <pre> # /sbin/ifconfig -a |egrep 'ether|HWaddr' venet0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 venet0:0 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 </pre> Actual error message <pre> Could not retrieve macaddress: private method split' called for nil:NilClass </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
