Re: Negative Lookbehind Regex Causes Duplicate Node Definition Errors Thanks for the detailed report. The problem is due to the way puppet keeps track of "regex" types of node names here. Both regexp are normalized to the same string: irb(main):005:0> @name = /(?<!a)sync/ => /(?<!a)sync/ irb(main):006:0> "__node_regexp__#{@name.source.downcase.gsub(/[^-\w:.]/,'').sub (/^\.+/,'')}" => "__node_regexp__async" irb(main):007:0> @name = /async/ => /async/ irb(main):008:0> "__node_regexp__#{@name.source.downcase.gsub(/[^-\w:.]/,'').sub (/^\.+/,'')}" => "__node_regexp__async" One simple fix is to specify "async" as a string and not a regex: node /(?<!a)sync/ { ... } node async { ... }
