Bug #19731: Cron name with extended characters could lead to state yaml 
corruption
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/19731#change-87051

Author: Sylvain Avril
Status: Investigating

Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: 3.1.1
Keywords: yaml cron
Branch: 


Hello,

I was using the cron type with a name using accents and that lead to this error 
:
Could not intern from yaml: syntax error on line 8324, col 14: `    !binary ? 
"Q3JvbltS6XN1bekgam91cm5hbGllciBwb3VyIGZvcmVtYW4gZGV2XQ==\n"'
This is the name of the ressource in base 64.

Reverting the name to a more 7-bit ASCII type friendly resolved the problem 
(after a bit of cleaning in yaml and storeconfig). As far as I know, ressource 
names doesn't have much limitations in the characters to use.

I'm not sure if this is a problem specific to the cron type or if it is more 
general in puppet. There could be also a mismatch between the encoding of the 
manifest and the encoding in the crontab.

As ressource names are used as keys in the YAML, there's probably no easy 
option.
