---------------------------------------- Bug #22906: MSI properties that have a default value don't allow the remembered property to be applied during an upgrade https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22906#change-98930 * Author: Rob Reynolds * Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review * Priority: Normal * Assignee: Rob Reynolds * Category: * Target version: 3.4.0 * Affected Puppet version: development * Keywords: windows * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet_for_the_win/pull/61 ---------------------------------------- If you install puppet on windows, the value is persisted in the registry. If you upgrade and don't specify a new value, the persisted value should be re-applied, but is not. Specifically: <pre> <Property Id="PUPPET_MASTER_SERVER" Value="puppet"> <Property Id="PUPPET_AGENT_ENVIRONMENT" Value="production"> </pre> To reproduce, install 3.3.1 (or whenever the property was introduced): <pre> start /w msiexec /qn /i puppet-3.3.1.msi PUPPET_MASTER_SERVER=myotherserver </pre> Make sure the value is in the registry and puppet.conf: <pre> reg query "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Puppet Labs\PuppetInstaller" /v RememberedPuppetMasterServer type c:\programdata\puppetlabs\puppet\etc\puppet.conf </pre> Upgrade to the new version without specifying a new value: <pre> start /w msiexec /qn /i puppet-latest.msi </pre> puppet.conf will revert back to the default `puppet` instead of the remembered value `myotherserver` This wasn't an issue previously, because once a value was written to puppet.conf, it was never changed, even if a new value was specified in the command line. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
