Debian Wheezy with the Puppetserver 2.2.0, Puppet Agent 1.3.0 packages from the Puppetlabs APT repository. Puppetserver and Agent are running on the same host.
Description
I am trying to write a custom report but the code doesn't seem to be picked up by the Puppetserver (2.2.0). Following https://puppetlabs.com/blog/when-puppet-reports-part-2 I have written a small module with a dummy report that only writes out a single line to the server log. The module is available at https://github.com/smoeding/puppet-foobar
First environment: Puppet 3.6.2, Debian Wheezy
- Install module foobar
- Verify parameters in puppet.conf: pluginsync=true, reports=foobar
- Start the puppetmaster
- Run puppet agent -t
- Observe the creation of /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/reports/foobar.rb
The logfile shows a successful call to the report (last line):
Info: Caching node for xxx
|
Info: Caching node for xxx
|
Notice: Compiled catalog for xxx in environment production in 9.54 seconds
|
Info: Puppet run on xxx ended with status unchanged
|
So the report code seems to be working in this environment.
Second Environment: Puppetserver 2.2.0, Puppet-Agent 1.3.0, Debian Wheezy
- Install module foobar
- Verify parameters in puppet.conf: pluginsync=true, reports=foobar
- Start the puppetmaster
- Run puppet agent -t
- Observe creation of /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/lib/puppet/reports/foobar.rb
The logfile /var/log/puppetlabs/puppetserver/puppetserver.log only contains:
2015-11-25 18:49:12,105 WARN [qtp559733227-62] [puppet-server] Puppet No report named 'foobar'
|
So the report is configured but obviously not registed in the server. Restarting the Puppetserver does not change that situation and the warning remains.
When I manually copy the file foobar.rb to
/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/reports (where the standard report files http.rb, log.rb and store.rb reside), then the report suddenly works:
2015-11-25 19:04:14,042 INFO [qtp1605533662-61] [puppet-server] Puppet Puppet run on yyy ended with status unchanged
|
It seems to me as if the documented way of writing a custom report as part of a module does not cause the new Puppetserver to pick up the deployed code and execute the report. Other code in modules (custom facts, types & providers) works the expected way.
