File content directive - Audit mode is not correctly supported
Added by Hamlyn Mootoo almost 7 years ago.
Updated over 4 years ago.
Severity:
Minor - inconvenience | misleading | easy workaround
User visibility:
Operational - other Techniques | Technique editor | Rudder settings
Description
I created a directive in audit mode from the File content technique. The directive has a regex to replace lines. When it gets a regex match within the file, (but of course can't actually do the replacement because of audit mode) it reports an error, both when a 'rudder agent run' is done as well as in the GUI. Is this expected?
The interactive output follows:
A| compliant checkGenericFileContent File /etc/login.defs The file /etc/login.defs was already in accordance with the policy
A| non-compliant checkGenericFileContent File /etc/login.defs The file /etc/login.defs could not be updated
A| compliant checkGenericFileContent Line deletion regular ex| /etc/login.defs The file /etc/login.defs was not set for any line deletion
A| error checkGenericFileContent Line replacement regular| /etc/login.defs The file /etc/login.defs was successfully updated using the replacement policy
A| compliant checkGenericFileContent Permission adjustment /etc/login.defs The file /etc/login.defs uses default permissions

The

line a clearly a bug, we should report a non-compliance if a replacement is needed (and have a non-compliance message too).

We need to move from rudder_common_report_index to generic reporting bundle that handles audit reports.
