Hello, does anyone have an idea on how to troubleshoot this error message :

Copy code

Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Could not autoload puppet/type/package: Could not autoload puppet/provider/package/chocolatey: /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/chocolatey/lib/puppet/provider/package/chocolatey.rb:264: syntax error, unexpected tDOT

is this a ruby issue on the puppet server itself ?

@romgo yes. it is an issue on the puppet server. that it is saying "syntax error" makes me wonder if you are using a version of code which is too new for the version of Ruby running the puppet server. otherwise, I'd say check the integrity of that

/etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/modules/chocolatey/lib/puppet/provider/package/chocolatey.rb

file to make sure it didn't get corrupted.

I'd also check the versions of puppet/ruby vs the required version for the chocolatey module (edited to remove the department of redundancy department)

seanmil

but I think

tDOT

might be referring to use of the

&.

syntax, which is pretty new in Ruby, compared to many puppet versions running in the wild.

i'm running ruby 2.5.5p157 with puppet server 5.3.16-1stretch

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:54 PM

what version of the chocolatey module

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:55 PM

you definitely can't use major version 6, you might get away with major version 5 (but officially it only supports 5.5.10+)

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:56 PM

mod 'puppetlabs-chocolatey', '5.2.1'

See the

puppetlabs-chocolatey

module at https://forge.puppet.com/puppetlabs/chocolatey?src=slack&channel=puppet

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:57 PM

this states Puppet >= 5.5.10 < 8.0.0

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:57 PM

but is there a puppetserver 5.5 branch ?

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:57 PM

puppet agent is 5.5

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:57 PM

honestly, 5.x is entirely EOL already

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:58 PM

I know, but it was working yesterday,

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:58 PM

that sounds like a corruption

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:58 PM

I'd try redeploying the module

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:58 PM

we moved to new chocolatey version 2 weeks ago without any issue.

romgo

04/21/2022, 1:59 PM

I already did that deleted chocolatey folder and let r10k download again the module

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 1:59 PM

so I can say that 5.2.1 is where that change occured

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 2:01 PM

try using 5.1.0

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 2:01 PM

(for the chocolatey module)

romgo

04/21/2022, 2:01 PM

ok will try thanks. Could this be some cache on the server ?

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 2:01 PM

yes, r10k caches

bastelfreak

04/21/2022, 2:02 PM

also puppetserver has a class cache. that can be pruned via api or by restarting puppetserver

Lumiere

04/21/2022, 2:02 PM

but it caches the whole repo, so it should find the 5.1.0 tag
