Issue #15746 has been updated by Josh Cooper. Project changed from Hiera-Puppet to Puppet
---------------------------------------- Bug #15746: Hiera puppet backend silently ignores exceptions https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15746#change-76950 Author: Ellison Marks Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Ellison Marks Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: debugging Branch: <pre>unless loaded_classes.include?(klass) begin if scope.respond_to?(:function_include) scope.function_include(klass) else scope.real.function_include(klass) end temp_answer = scope[varname] Hiera.debug("Found data in class #{klass}") rescue end else temp_answer = scope[varname] end</pre> While working with hiera's puppet backend, I made a syntax error in one of my data classes, such that when calling a hiera function it would fail to load. Due to the above code, however, there was no indication that such an error was occurring. The only hiera messages when I enabled debug in the puppet master was the following: <pre>Could not find data item classes in any Hiera data file and no default supplied at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp</pre> Perhaps something like this would be useful. I added it temporarily to help me find the error. <pre>rescue Exception=>e Hiera.debug(e.message) Hiera.debug(e.backtrace.inspect) end</pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
