[Puppet - Bug #23318] Invalid YAML (hiera) file and automatic param binding fails in vague errors
Issue #23318 has been updated by Henrique Rodrigues.
I have the exact same problem, but using CentOS 64-bit, Puppet 3.3.2, Hiera
1.2.1 and the normal Puppet parser (not future).
Bug #23318: Invalid YAML (hiera) file and automatic param binding fails in
vague errors

Hi,
In my chain of hiera files I have an empty file. My manifests look as follows:
pre
blockquote
node 'example.com' {
include role::vps::hypervisor
}
class role::vps::hypervisor inherits role::vps {
}
class role::vps inherits role {
}
class role {
include profile::base
}
class profile::base (
$firewall = params_lookup('firewall', 'global' ),
$manage_networking = true
) {
# Some code here
}
/pre
/blockquote
This results in the following error:
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
undefined method `empty?' for false:FalseClass at role.pp:2 on node example.com
Once I remove the parameters in the profile::base class, the error changes in
to the little bit more helpful message:
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Data
retrieved from /etc/puppet/hieradata/vps.yaml is String not Hash at
/etc/puppet/modules/profile/manifests/base.pp:13 on node example.com.
Two issues:ulli
I think an empty or invalid Hiera file should not result in an error at
all./lili
If, for whatever reason, automatic parameter binding fails, a reasonable error
should be displayed. In the past I've seen (and reported) several issues where
the binding failed, and resulted in some vague issues which are hard to debug.
/li/ul
Parser: future (not sure if relevant)br /
br /
Hiera version: 1.3.0br /
Puppet version: 3.3.2br /
OS: Debian 7, 64 bitbr /
Env: Passengerbr /
I wouldn't classify the priority of this issue as low, because it's easy to
trigger, and really hard to find the cause off the given error message.
