[sandinak]

Error: Failed to apply catalog: Parameter path failed on Registry_value[HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\fDenyTSConnections]: Munging failed for value "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\fDenyTSConnections"
Wrapped exception:
Munging failed for value "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\fDenyTSConnections" in class path: uninitialized constant PuppetX::Puppetlabs::Registry::KEY_WOW64_64KEY

uninstall and things start working again.

What fact are you seeing this error? Do you have puppetlabs/registry installed?

[sandinak]

Yea .. i have registry installed .. and it seems to happen if both are installed ( I saw the notes on previous tickets ) but I can't see a conflict.

Ok, apologies, yes I can see the bug now in the windows_sid fact. I will get this fixed shortly.

If your interested it's this line:
18 access = Win32::Registry::KEY_READ | KEY_WOW64_64KEY

[sandinak]

Danke ;) I am starting to write several windows based puppet modules myself .. cygwin most specifically ;)

Are you aware of any repo managers for windows + puppet? I've taken to creating /module/foo/install and putting installers in there and setting up shared mount .. etc. I am considering writing a tool to manage populating the install directories if people put source's in the module/manifests/init.pp .. kicking it around ;)

http://chocolatey.org/ and https://github.com/chocolatey/puppet-chocolatey is probably the nearest thing your after.

I am in the process of writing a couple of providers to cover the network and http sources for when you don't have or don't want to have a chocolatey infrastructure.

What your are doing now is still unfortunately a very common pattern.

Hello,
Have just started using this module and promptly ran into this bug, will you be doing a release shortly to resolve it?
Thanks

[delwaterman]

Bump on this issue as well

[AutomationD]

Still seeing an issue, Windows Server 2008 R2 (64 bit). Any clue how to mitigate it?
Thanks!

[JasonCrease]

Bump, getting it here too.

I was getting this error and found a fix that had nothing to do with win_facts. I was using the puppetlabs/registry module to change values without prefixing them with "32:" e.g. "32:HKLM\Softw..." Don't ask me WHY this fixed it (there is an answer but it goes completeley over my head) but it might be worth a try.

[gibbsoft]

+1 for dylanratcliffe1's answer... that solved my issue. Thanks.
