Last modified: 2017-02-23 15:46:36 EST
Description of problem: When you create a puppet class which user name is not ASCII, it allows you to upload it and then fails. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Create a puppet class with Metadata in non-English (i.e. My surname is Ocón) 2. promote it to a server 3. run puppet agent -t -v Actual results: Journalctl -xn -l Nov 25 12:12:56 vm3 puppet-agent[3456]: (/File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]) Wrapped exception: Nov 25 12:12:56 vm3 puppet-agent[3456]: (/File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]) Error 400 on SERVER: "\xC3" on US-ASCII Nov 25 12:12:57 vm3 puppet-agent[3456]: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: "\xC3" on US-ASCII on node vm3.sergio.cloud Nov 25 12:12:57 vm3 puppet-agent[3456]: Using cached catalog Nov 25 12:12:57 vm3. puppet-agent[3456]: Finished catalog run in 0.05 seconds Expected results: 1. Puppet manifest is rejected with error message while importing Additional info: After trying this an getting an error, I can't make a new version of my Repos, Basic_RHEL_7 (only RHEL+RH Common) fails with error message: Duplicate resource: redhat_iberia-RHEL_7_Basic-2-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_Server-Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_7_Server_-_RH_Common_RPMs_x86_64_7Server I don't know if this is related
Since this issue was entered in Red Hat Bugzilla, the release flag has been set to ? to ensure that it is properly evaluated for this release.
I believe this patch ensures that Puppet runs in UTF-8 mode, so the expected result is that the module just works, no need to reject Unicode metadata.

VERIFIED. (o) Satellite-6.1.0-RHEL-6-20150808.0 puppet-3.6.2-4.el6_6sat.noarch puppet-server-3.6.2-4.el6_6sat.noarch According to the comment in the commit it is reproducible on RHEL6 only (ruby1.9). Sadly reproducing is blocked by another bug present in older code (bz1199638) The fix is in place on the installed Satellite: # grep UTF_8 /etc/puppet/rack/config.ru Encoding.default_external = Encoding::UTF_8 if defined? Encoding Logs contain no such errors # puppet agent -v -t ... # grep 'puppet.*US-ASCII' /var/log/messages
