invalid checksum using template

[Felice Pizzurro]

Hi all,

I'm simply tryng to push a file with content in template:

file {'/tmp/test':

  ensure  => present,

  content => template('modulename/template_file.erb')

}

Template file contains a line like this:

{FOO}.

note final dot character. The file is correctly created but I have the following error during the filebucket

Error: Could not retrieve content for {FOO}.

 from filebucket: Invalid checksum ".\n"

Wrapped exception:

Invalid checksum ".\n"

If I delete this line or the final dot it works fine. I've also tryed to put the string in a variable but nothing...

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Fx

This sounds very strange, but your account of the problem is a bit fragmented and incomplete.  Can you provide a complete example that exhibits this problem?  For example, how about this:

file {'/tmp/test':
  ensure  => present,

  content => '{FOO}.'
}

And on what version of Puppet are you experiencing this?

I'm pretty sure puppet has a bug whereby it thinks content of the form {FOO} specifies a checksum whose algorithm is FOO, and then tries to retrieve a file whose checksum is FOO from the filebucket.

Hi,

I use puppet 3.7.3-1puppetlabs1. Puppet master is ubuntu 12.04, client is ubuntu 10.04.

I have a resource file, content is a template that have the string {FOO}. inside

class test {

 

  file {'/tmp/test':

    ensure => present,

    content => template('test/template.erb')

  }

}

the template content is only the string {FOO}.

Result of agent execution is:

Error: Could not retrieve content for {FOO}.

 from filebucket: Error 400 on SERVER: Invalid checksum ".\n"

Wrapped exception:

Error 400 on SERVER: Invalid checksum ".\n"

Error: /Stage[main]/Test/File[/tmp/test]/ensure: change from absent to present failed: Could not retrieve content for {FOO}.

 from filebucket: Error 400 on SERVER: Invalid checksum ".\n"

Yup. And it's been known for quite a while.

I don't think that this can be worked around at the moment, unless the
OP can avoid `content` in favor of `source`.

Cheers,
