    • Release Notes Summary:
      There was a bug in Puppet Server versions prior to 2.7.0 wherein calling the `generate()` function did not merge the output from {{STDERR}} into the output from {{STDOUT}}. This bug is fixed on 2.7.0 and the output from {{STDERR}} is now included.

      Description

      description

      The function generate() does not merge stdout and stderr using a puppet4 master. It works as expected on a v3 master, or using puppetv4 apply.

      #!/bin/sh
      		 
       
      		 
      echo -n stdin
      		 
      echo -n stderr 1>&2


      class manifests::test_util_exec {
      		 
        $_msg = generate('/tmp/test2')
      		 
        notify { 'test_util_exec':
      		 
          message => $_msg
      		 
        }
      		 
      }

      puppetv4 master

      Notice: stdin
      		 
      Notice: /Stage[main]/Manifests::Test_util_exec/Notify[test_util_exec]/message: defined 'message' as 'stdin'
      		 
      Notice: Finished catalog run in 32.46 seconds

      puppetv3 master

      Notice: stdinstderr
      		 
      Notice: /Stage[main]/Manifests::Test_util_exec/Notify[test_util_exec]/message: defined 'message' as 'stdinstderr'
