Bug #17773: Using Mailalias provider causes agent to throw "Could not prefetch
mailalias provider 'aliases': undefined method `strip' for nil:NilClass"
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17773
Author: Nick Cammorato
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: Red Hat
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.19
Keywords:
Branch:
CENTOS6.3, Ruby 1.8.7, Puppet agent/master 2.7.19
On a non-standard alias location, and as a virtual resource, as follows:
@mailalias { $name:
ensure => $ensures,
recipient => $destination,
target => $target,
}
Everything still processes(apparently correctly) when the resources are
realized, but a refresh is triggered on each and every puppet run.
The offending code seems to be in providers/mailalias/aliases.rb within the
process method.
Altering the following:
ret[:name] = records[0].strip
ret[:recipient] = records[1].strip
so that the to_s conversion is implicit appears to resolve it. As in:
ret[:name] = records[0].to_s.strip
ret[:recipient] = records[1].to_s.strip
I couldn't find anything in the changelog for 2.7.20 indicating that this was
fixed.
