Issue #11540 has been updated by Josh Cooper.
Just to clarify: > Most of the errors are these `Could not set 'directory on ensure: Could not > find group puppet` which is due to bug to > <https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9862> as the puppet user and group > are not present on the system. This needs to be fixed no matter what. > The windows failures are strange because the code is inside an `if => > Puppet.features.microsoft_windows?` block and should not be executing (as > they rely on windows specific gems). This needs to be investigated as bad things will happen if Puppet.features.microsoft_windows? is true on this platform. > Perhaps we should add an rspec exclude filter, e.g. fails_on_centos5, to > those tests we know to fail like we do for ruby 192 and windows. I would only recommend doing this if we can run the specs on a different 1.8.5 platform (that doesn't have the useradd permissions issue) ---------------------------------------- Bug #11540: Puppet Specs fail on Centos5 https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11540 Author: Justin Stoller Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: testing Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: Keywords: specs, centos5, el5 Branch: Running Puppet specs on Centos5 gives Many failures. Most pertain to Windows. This is incredibly disconcerting and if was fixed would make testing/contributing to Puppet much easier. I've attached a file with the complete output if a dev can tell from the full rspec output what the issues are. Short story: <pre> Finished in 109.95 seconds 13179 examples, 213 failures, 88 pending </pre> Note, Centos5's packaged Ruby is 1.8.5 -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
