Description

With a recent git checkout of Puppet 0.24.6 from git://github.com/jamtur01/puppet.git (up to commit 80e5c111fd2d227ef076fd0409213f30af13bc56), I’m getting the following error message. This does not seem to happen on all nodes, but I’m not sure what’s different for this node.

Sorry, should have thought of adding that to the description. This is on Debian Linux (4.0).

I’ve tested the same Puppet version on two other Debian nodes, and they don’t show the error. All nodes I tested have the ruby libraries as below.

$ dpkg -l | grep ruby
ii  libopenssl-ruby                  1.0.0+ruby1.8.2-1                    OpenSSL interface for Ruby
ii  libopenssl-ruby1.8               1.8.5-4etch2                         OpenSSL interface for Ruby 1.8
ii  libruby1.8                       1.8.5-4etch2                         Libraries necessary to run Ruby 1.8
ii  libshadow-ruby1.8                1.4.1-7                              Interface of shadow password for Ruby 1.8
ii  libxmlrpc-ruby                   1.8.2-1                              XML-RPC support for Ruby
ii  ruby                             1.8.2-1                              An interpreter of object-oriented scripting

The two other nodes do have different manifests, but it doesn’t seem to be related to the manifest, since I’m also getting it with a simple test run with ‘puppet’ on the node which shows the problem:

$ cat test.pp 
#!/usr/bin/env puppet

file { "/tmp/test":
    ensure => present,
}
$  ./test.pp 
/dev/mem: Permission denied
Could not autoload "/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/user/user_role_add.rb": uninitialized constant Puppet::Type::User::ProviderUseradd

Any tips for debugging this? E.g. strategic places where I could add some print statements?

I believe this is a problem with ordering in the autoloader.

Try the attached patch and let me know if that fixes the problem.
