Perhaps try:
# ln -sf /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml /etc/hiera.yaml
Also you can use the hiera command-line utility [1] to test - for example:
# hiera --debug philcheck::value

I wanted to start using hiera for some databinding type purposes.
I set up a /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml, pointing to a special hieradata
directory...but clients were not seeing the values I populated.
So I made a very stripped down version of a manifest for testing, with
$domain=hiera(philcheck::value)
file {/tmp/hieratest:
ensure = present,
content=$domain \n,
}
The only way it found any hiera-set value, was if I put it in
/var/lib/hiera/common.yaml
Which is rather odd, because the autogenerated /etc/hiera.yaml does not
mention common. it mentions global.
And the config I created in /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml, I deliberately abused
to reference common-p, instead of common.
Yet it still pulls from common. While ignoring any varient of
/var/lib/hiera/${hostname}.yaml
What's going on and how can I fix this please?
