Do you have agents from different environments checking in? ---------------------------------------- Bug #14979: inconsistent server 400 error: undefined method `parent' for nil:NilClass https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14979#change-65385 Author: Banio Carpenter Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: I see this server 400 error intermittently when run as a cron. I'm not able to reproduce it running puppet manually. I have tried many times to reproduce it using: puppetd -t puppet agent -t puppet agent --no-daemonize --onetime --verbose puppetd --no-daemonize --onetime --verbose The error is: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Failed to parse template admissions/zz_admissions_vhost.conf.erb: undefined method `parent' for nil:NilClass at /etc/puppet/modules/admissions/manifests/apache.pp:84 on node nodee.mydomain.com the relevant part of apache.pp (content is line 84): file { "/etc/httpd/conf.d/zz_admissions_vhost.conf": ensure => present, owner => root, group => root, mode => 640, content => template('admissions/zz_admissions_vhost.conf.erb'), } -> the only fact/variable I have in the template (admissions/zz_admissions_vhost.conf.erb) is this: ServerName <%= domain %> Versions: # puppetd --version 2.7.14 # ruby --version ruby 1.8.5 (2006-08-25) [i386-linux] # facter --version 1.6.9 Again I can't reproduce this manually, only happens when run as a cron, and even then only sometimes--percentage ranges from 10% to 75% depending on the day. The cron is: puppet agent --no-daemonize --onetime --verbose -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
