Appeared during upgrade, linked to the update of promises/ncf.

Updated by Nicolas CHARLES over 8 years ago

We changed the list-compatible-inputs script in #8559
Since the script needs one run to be updated, there is one run where promises call the old script with the new paramters, hence the transitory error message

  • Status changed from New to Rejected
  • Target version set to 3.1.16

We changed the output of list-compatible-inputs in #8553/#8559 to output only the relative path to ncf folder. When using old promises.cf with a new ncf (before first generation after upgrade), we try to load the relative path, which CFEngine understands as relative to the inputs dir, hence the given result.

As it is a transient error that disappears at the end of the upgrade process, and linked to the upgrade order between ncf and Rudder, closing.
