Puppet / PUP-10884 Using 'puppet facts show' with a fact that doesn't exist gives conversion error Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 6.20.0 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2021/02/01 9:26 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Nick Burgan Puppet Version: 6.20.0 Puppet Server Version: 2019.8.x latest OS Name/Version: Centos 7 When running 'puppet facts show <fact_name>', if fact_name doesn't exist, rather than the error saying so, you get [root@cute-remainder ~]# puppet facts show abcd Error: no implicit conversion of Symbol into Integer Error: Try 'puppet help facts find' for usage Whereas on 7.x you get [root@choosy-trio ~]# puppet facts show abcd { “abcd”: “” } Desired Behavior: Either a blank value is returned, or an error is given that tells the user the fact doesn't exist. Actual Behavior: Symbol to integer conversion error Add Comment
