Error 'Command rabbitmqplugins is missing' on puppet apply

[Brad Woodward]

Running 'puppet apply tests/site.pp' results in the following error:

Notice: /Stage[main]/Concat::Setup/File[/var/lib/puppet/concat]/ensure: created
Notice: /Stage[main]/Nova::Compute/Package[bridge-utils]/ensure: ensure changed 'purged' to 'present'

Error: /Stage[main]/Rabbitmq::Server/Rabbitmq_plugin[rabbitmq_management]: Could not evaluate: Command rabbitmqplugins is missing
[...]

The command proceeds and the apply completes after multiple 'unmet dependencies' messages. The test/site.pp and manifests/all.pp that I am using can be seen here:

This was working fine for me less than a week ago, although checking out previous commits doesn't have any effect.

I just ran across this same error. Adding the path to rabbitmq-plugins to my puppet client's environment was
a workaround, but another rabbitmq failure occured later in my run (related to /var/tmp/rabbitmqadmin)

for me it was "export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/rabbitmq/lib/rabbitmq_server-2.7.1/sbin"

just fyi, in case it helps

[James Luhrsen (jamo)]

for the /var/tmp/rabbitmqadmin failure, I found that no rabbit user was getting created when running the
controller class. This caused the rabbitadmin curl grab to fail (unauthorized).

I manually added a rabbit admin user and hard coded those values in rabbitmq/manifests/server.pp :

# command => "curl http://${default_user}:${default_pass}@localhost:5${port}/cli/rabbitmqadmin -o /var/tmp/rabbitmqadmin",
    command => "curl http://myuser:mypassword@localhost:5${port}/cli/rabbitmqadmin -o /var/tmp/rabbitmqadmin",

following this, my puppet run for the controller class completed without error.

Do you still have this issue?

If yes, which version of Puppet and puppetlabs-rabbitmq are you using?

[Philip Cheong (philip-cheong)]

I'm pretty confident this is the issue that I am hitting with puppetlabs-rabbitmq v3.1.0, which is the version pulled in from when I puppet module install puppetlabs-openstack (4.0.0 testing Icehouse).

Here is the specific failure from the puppet run:

Info: Class[Rabbitmq::Service]: Scheduling refresh of Service[rabbitmq-server]
Notice: /Stage[main]/Rabbitmq::Service/Service[rabbitmq-server]: Dependency Rabbitmq_plugin[rabbitmq_management] has failures: true
Warning: /Stage[main]/Rabbitmq::Service/Service[rabbitmq-server]: Skipping because of failed dependencies
...
Error: Could not find a suitable provider for rabbitmq_plugin

I tried out the puppetlabs-rabbitmq 4.0.0 but that but that is not compatible with the other modules.

As suggested above, if I add this to my path
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/lib/rabbitmq/lib/rabbitmq_server-3.1.5/sbin
then the puppet agent run will succeed.

Now I'm searching for a more permanent workaround.
