Re: puppet generate types should be run when the puppetserver is upgraded I wouldn't expect that to be necessary. Is there a specific module that fails when the server is updated? /cc Henrik Lindberg

Josh Cooper I didn't either but it definitely was. It was with a stack of SIMP modules, didn't debug past the fact that rerunning puppet generate types fixed everything.

In general it there is no need to regenerate. However, could have been that earlier version of generate did output something that was not quite right... don't remember exactly, but think we have fixed one such issue. Can an upgrade of server mean that there will also be different versions of modules? If so, generate needs to run to pick up those changes.

Given the comment from Henrik Lindberg, it would seem that the safe thing to do would be to run it and give people the ability to opt-out.
