Description

See:

https://github.com/Katello/puppet-capsule/pull/13

some constructs such as:

class { 'foreman_proxy::plugin::pulp': }

cause ruby 1.8.7 to segfault on the installer. This keeps up from being able to fully use some of the features of the foreman and foreman smart_proxy modules

refs #8175, #7064 - isolate consumer actions, and use foreman_proxy fork

This commit pulls in the changes needed to isolate consumer actions, as
well as pinning theforeman-foreman_proxy to our fork, which will avoid
pulling in a new puppetlabs-apache. This avoids #7064, the case where
the installer segfaults due to poor garbage collection in 1.8.7.

Fixes #10096, #7064: Add use of '--profile' and update modules.

Updates the Foreman modules to 3.X and also Apache module that
previously led to segfaulting on EL6. This segfaulting is alleviated
by using Puppet's --profile option.

History

#1 Updated by Stephen Benjamin about 8 years ago

Subject changed from Can't use puppet constructs for installing some plugins due to segfault to Katello installer segfaults on Ruby 1.8.7

#2 Updated by Stephen Benjamin about 8 years ago

This is also happening reliably when updating from puppetlabs-apache 1.1.1 to > 1.2.

I think the only solution is going to be to move the installer to SCL ruby, as Foreman now requires puppetlabs-apache > 1.2.

#3 Updated by Stephen Benjamin about 8 years ago

Of course, that is unless we can narrow down exactly what addition to puppetlabs-apache is causing this, but I have a feeling we're going to keep running off the 1.8.7 GC cliff as the katello-installer puppet catalogues get more complex.
