Facter resolved to an invalid value

[Viktor Jevdokimov]

On some CentOS servers we started to receive an error:

Fact resolution fact='env', resolution='<anonymous>' resolved to an invalid value: Expected prod to be one of [Integer, Float, TrueClass, FalseClass, NilClass, String, Array, Hash], but was Symbol

Custom fact script:

Facter.add('env') do

  setcode do

    case Facter.value(:ipaddress)

    when /^172.22.1.*$/

      :dev

    when /^10.1.2.*$/

      :prod

    else

      :default

    end

  end

end

Happened after IP address was changed on the server, machine was restarted.

Have not idea what to fix.

Best regards,

Viktor

The error message is fairly self-explanatory, no? Facter needs facts to
return strings, booleans, arrays or hashes. Your fact returns Ruby
symbols, which Facter doesn't like. Change :dev, :prod and :default to
"dev", "prod" and "default" and it should work.
