Issue #8229 has been updated by Charlie Sharpsteen.
Category changed from file to filebucket
Status changed from Investigating to Accepted
Alright, the issue here is that when we send files over the wire to and from a
filebucket, they are encoded to a JSON object of the following form:
<pre>
{'contents': '<exact content of the file>'}
</pre>
The problem is that we don't base64 encode the content of binary files---which
is very rough on the parser that is de-coding the JSON packet. Furthermore,
running megabytes of data through a JSON parser that is only ever returning a
hash with one entry set to those bytes is probably overkill.

# Overview #
When uploading files using `puppet inspect` I often get this on the managed
node side of the equation:

On the master side, I saw this error message but did not have trace enabled:
