I have run into a problem in using the puppetlabs/ntp module that I was not
expecting. In calling on puppetlabs-ntp::init in my rspec tests, I am
getting a failure of ntp::params to find the correct fact for
operationingsystem, which happens to be RedHat. I've even issued a test to
see if I could manually set the operatingsystem fact, but alas.
Here is my client_ntp_spec.rb--
require 'spec_helper'
describe "ntp" do
let(:facts) { { :operatingsystem => "RedHat" } }
it { should contain_notify("operatingsystem").with_message("RedHat") }
end
describe 'client_ntp', :type => :class do
describe 'client_ntp' do
it { should create_class('client_ntp') }
it { should contain_class('client_ntp::params') }
end
end
Here are my test results--
$ rake spec

Based on the error message, I traced the output straight to the
puppetlabs/ntp::params class, line 183 here--
default: {
fail("The ${module_name} module is not supported on an ${::osfamily}
based system.")
}
It seems that the puppetlabs/ntp module is getting a null value for the
operatingsystem fact.
I can manually test for the fact at the command line--
$ facter operatingsystem
RedHat
This is RedHat 6.4--
$ lsb_release -a
LSB Version:
:base-4.0-amd64:base-4.0-noarch:core-4.0-amd64:core-4.0-noarch:graphics-4.0-amd64:graphics-4.0-noarch:printing-4.0-amd64:printing-4.0-noarch
Distributor ID: RedHatEnterpriseServer
Description: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
Release: 6.4
Codename: Santiago
I'm feeling stumped. Any clues?
Thanks.
