Description

On all nodes I see the following in syslog:

!! Duplicate selection of value for variable "execRun" in scope g
!! Rule from /var/rudder/cfengine-community/inputs/common/1.0/site.cf at/before line 58

I created the following patch to solve this:

I just tested this, and I have noticed that these warning messages only appear if running cf-agent with the "-I" option.

Unfortunately, the workaround above does not fix this. That is, running cf-agent with -I, I still get the warning messages, even with "policy => overridable". I also never see this in syslog output, only in the interactive agent output.

Dennis, are you sure you saw this in syslog?

As far as I can remember I only see the warnings if I perform a "/var/rudder/cfengine-community/bin/cf-agent -KI". On my system the warning disappeared after adding "policy => overridable".

Right, so it is indeed linked to the "-I" option of cf-agent.

However, I cannot reproduce this fix. When I add policy => overridable, I still get the error messages :-(
