This Puppet 5.4.0 error message wraps up the situation in a pretty tidy
package:
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on
SERVER: Server Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a
Function Call, Cannot have code outside of a class/node/define
because 'freeze_main' is enabled (file:
/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests/defaults-firewall.pp,
line: 14, column: 3) on node redacted.machine.xxx
The freeze_main setting is documented
<https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/configuration.html#freezemain> to
trap code other than classes, defined type, and node definitions
appearing at top scope, /other than in the site manifest/. The error
message is complaining about a manifest in its environment's site
manifest directory, which would not be evaluated at all if Puppet were
not treating it as part of the site manifest. So why is Puppet
complaining? Is this just a straight-up bug, or is there more to it?
I just fixed a bug regarding freeze_main that was found when an
autoloaded class/define made use of a not already loaded custom data
type. The logic raising the error was too simplistic in its check for
the condition under which it should raise an error.
If your problem is not an actual problem, it may be that you ran into
that bug.
