Description

when running puppetd from head ([8eecbe54c96cec0de492e7ae77211637b65057e8]) against a puppetmaster from the same commit, the client repeatedly spits out these warnings:

Change History

12/03/07 14:35:14 changed by DavidS

  • priority changed from normal to low.
  • severity changed from normal to minor.
  • milestone set to misspiggy.

12/06/07 18:49:44 changed by luke

  • stage changed from Unreviewed to Needs more info.

This happens when the client receives an EPIPE exception. I don't really know why that's happening, though; is this all clients?

12/07/07 15:10:11 changed by DavidS

I'm only testing with debian packages and git HEAD, and I haven't noticed one that doesn't produce the messages. Perhaps a strace will show a reason.

12/12/07 01:10:53 changed by luke

  • milestone changed from misspiggy to elmo.

Note that these warnings will go away if you disable keep-alive.

04/08/08 18:11:36 changed by luke

  • status changed from new to closed.
  • resolution set to worksforme.

Keepalive is gone now, so this should be too.
