Error 400 on SERVER: Could not autoload active_record: uninitialized constant ActiveRecord

[Joehillen]

I'm trying to setup a new puppet setup (master and clients). I installed puppet v2.7.9 from the apt.puppetlabs.com repo. I setup async_storeconfigs with mysql and stompserver.

When I try to run, puppet agent --test --noop, on the client I get this message.

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not autoload active_record: uninitialized constant ActiveRecord

There are on actual storeconfigs written yet.

I saw a similar error to this on the mailing list, but that was from someone who installed from gems.

Thanks,

-Joe

Btw, this is Ubuntu Server 10.04.3 LTS

Ok, I solved the issue.

It took some doing because apparently puppet doesn't work with the newest version of activerecord.

http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/867

Here are the steps that ended up working:

apt-get install rubygems
gem install activerecord --version 3.0.11
apt-get install libmysqlclient15-dev
gem install mysql

I had to disable async_storeconfig because stomp gave an error and I had never used it before:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not write ***** to queue: undefined method `publish' for #<Stomp::Client:0x7f86042f8280>
Instance::#<Puppet::Resource::Catalog:0x7f8604546618>
client : #<Puppet::Util::Queue::Stomp:0x7f860447b080>

Thank you, you just added hours to my life! 3.0.11 works perfect. Perhaps the puppetlabs docs should make note of this?

Storeconfigs use activerecord as an ORM.
