Bug #3618
closedTechniques using reporting based on file edition don't have proper reporting for kept status with CFEngine 3.4.x
Description
In the following directive I get a no answer status after upgrading from 2.5 to 2.6.
- Global sudo management
- Permissions
- Value Message Status
mygroup No answer
Mygroup should be able to execute all commands without password. If I remove the corresponding line from the sudoers file. Rudder will report status Repaired, but only for one run. After that the status flips back to status No Answer. nevertheless the sudoers line is added correctly.

Were the reporting of Sudo utility configuration before the upgrade from 2.5 to 2.6 in No Answer status too or in Success ?
It seems to me that this is an error in the reporting part of the Technique but in the code I don't see any error and the latest modification was in April (2 months ago).

Dennis said on IRC that it used to work prior the upgrade

I can confirm that it used to work prior to the upgrade.

The issue is still there. However, de output on the node reports succes:

Ok and are these success messages present on the technical logs of the node in the Rudder WebUI ?

In the webapp this are the only tech logs that have to do with sudo:

I found out the reporting error.
It cam from the edit_line bundle used in here.
It does not report that the line was already inserted.
I'm trying to find out a fix!

This bugs occurs because of a bug CFEngine 3.4.
classes in the following extract are not thrown, so there is no reporting done.
insert_lines: replace_attempted_env_reset:: "Defaults env_reset"; check_sudo_parameters_sudo_add_line_vars_defined:: "${lines[${index}]}" classes => kept_if_else("line_${index}_kept", "line_${index}_added", "line_${index}_add_failed"); delete_lines: all_lines_defined.force:: ".*" delete_select => sudo_select_nomatch("${all_lines}"), classes => if_repaired("line_deleted");
This was working in cfengine 3.2. and reporting is working in 2.5 and 2.4

The real explanation about that bug is that the last line inserted is not sending kept_promises.
In the actual version if you insert several users as sudoers, only the last inserted is not reporting (not necesserly the last in the list, really the last inserted).
I found a workaround, in inserting a comment line after all users lines are inserting, and then deleting this line (and if that line is not erased, as its a commentary it has no consequences)
This will be implemented very soon

Agreed, it would be preferable to fix this by CFEngine code, rather than a workaround in promises.

Ok, they changed their pull request ( https://github.com/cfengine/core/pull/805/files )
However, it won't be applied on the 3.4 branch :(
