Issue #21890 has been updated by Josh Smeaton.
Oh I'm really sorry for not updating this - I thought I had. It turns out that, somehow, both facter 1.7 and 2.0 were installed on the same machine. I removed both versions, and reinstalled 2.0 and everything was fine. Yum was used for installation. I had other machines working properly with facter 2.0 which led me to this. You can close this one off. Sorry for wasting your time. ---------------------------------------- Bug #21890: Facter 2.0.0 not picking up external facts from /etc/facter/facts.d/ https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/21890#change-95829 * Author: Josh Smeaton * Status: Needs More Information * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Josh Smeaton * Category: * Target version: * Keywords: external_facts * Branch: * Affected Facter version: ---------------------------------------- Since upgrading to puppet 3.2.3 and facter 2.0.0, my custom facts are no longer being loaded. Below is a demonstration of a test: Server with puppet 3.2.3 and facter 2.0.0: <pre> # puppet --version 3.2.3 # facter --version 2.0.0 # cat /etc/facter/facts.d/test_facts.txt my_test_fact=facter2.0.0 # facter | grep my_test_fact # </pre> Server with puppet version 3.2.1 and facter 1.7.1: <pre> # puppet --version 3.2.1 # facter --version 1.7.1 # cat /etc/facter/facts.d/test_facts.txt my_test_fact=facter1.7.1 # facter | grep my_test_fact my_test_fact => facter1.7.1 # </pre> These two servers are part of a HA Pair, and other than the version of puppet/facter, they are identical. This is using standard puppet, not puppet enterprise. As a test, I created the facts in the /etc/puppetlabs/facter/facts.d but that still did not work. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
