Error: undefined method `gsub' for nil:NilClass

Hi guys, can you give me a hint on this?

Thanks!

It looks like a bug in the chosen provider for your Sysctl custom type, perhaps related to the manner in which your Spotflux_pweb::Sysctl defined type uses it.  The error message does suggest that the sysctl is not initially set/customized, but it would be a poor implementation of a Sysctl type that could not handle that situation.

Having no idea where your Sysctl type comes from (there are many available, or you could have written your own), and no information on Spotflux_pweb::Sysctl, there's really not much more I can say.

That was my fault - I pushed a change without actually running the tests and got everything I deserved as a result.

Apologies for the bug, but it's fixed now.
