What does the output of apitruthtag("metadata") show you between each run in facter, irb and puppet? Can you output each to a file and analyze the difference? > irb, ruby, or facter: > yaml parsed http response = #<YAML::Object:0x2ada01f7cf00> > > puppet run: > yaml parsed http response = #<Puppet::FileServing::Metadata: > 0x2ac7987b9c08> > with error: > > undefined method `ivars' for #<Puppet::FileServing::Metadata: > 0x2ac7987152c0> > #<NoMethodError: undefined method `ivars' for > #<Puppet::FileServing::Metadata:0x2ac7987152c0>> So when you run it with all the Puppet libraries the YAML object is being serialized back into a Ruby object Puppet::FileServing::Metadata ... I'm really curious what the raw YAML output looks like. This should only happen I think if the YAML output has meta information that matches that class type for example: --- !ruby/object:Puppet::FileServing::Metadata {} I get the feeling the YAML you are getting back isn't what you were expecting and looking at the contents of the raw output might give a better clue as to why. ken. -- "Join us for PuppetConf, September 22nd and 23rd in Portland, OR: http://bit.ly/puppetconfsig" -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
