Issue #17350 has been updated by Henrik Lindberg. Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted Keywords set to error message, usability
If it is possible to output that something is invalid, it must have access to enough information to give a better error message. ---------------------------------------- Bug #17350: improve invalid parameter error message from create resources https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/17350#change-78449 Author: Luke Bigum Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 3.0.0 Keywords: error message, usability Branch: The error message from create_resources() when an invalid parameter is given is a little difficult to understand. For example if I have some Hiera data like this (where the 'enable' parameter is mis-spelt as 'enabled'): service: puppet: enabled: true Then it would be more helpful if the error message looked something like this: Invalid parameter "enabled" for resource type 'service' via create_resources() on node foo Instead of what it does now: Invalid parameter enabled on node foo -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
