Issue #14710 has been updated by R.I. Pienaar.
are you running this cronjob as root? If yes, please show the contents of /etc/puppet/puppet.conf ---------------------------------------- Bug #14710: Facter outputs an error when a script that runs "facter -p" is launched via Cron. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14710#change-64122 Author: Brent Hensarling Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Brent Hensarling Category: Target version: Keywords: Branch: Affected Facter version: 1.6.6 Hello, I have noticed that our puppetmaster outputs a strange error when it tries to run a BASH script via Cron that runs "facter -p" within the script. Here is the error that Cron sends to us via email: Cron Daemon [email protected] /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/facter: Is a directory - /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/facter (Errno::EISDIR) from /usr/bin/facter:19:in `load' from /usr/bin/facter:19 /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/facter: Is a directory - /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/facter (Errno::EISDIR) from /usr/bin/facter:19:in `load' from /usr/bin/facter:19 I have attached 2 examples of scripts that generate this issue. Our puppetmaster has Facter 1.6.6 and Puppet 2.7.9 installed. O/S is CentOS 5.5. Google searches didn't reveal much information about the problem. The only threads I found that even referenced the same error output can be found here: http://www.puppetlogs.com/puppet/%23puppet-2011-06-27.log.html http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_thread/thread/7a1b95adca7c17af/2cceda3ad28422ae It should be noted that running "facter -p" on the machine via the command line produces no issues at all. Nor do any errors occur when running the script from the command line as well. We only see this issue when the attached scripts are launched via Cron. Can you please advise if this is a possible bug in Facter, or if it's something we're doing wrong on our end. Let me know if you need any further debugging information from me Thanks!
