Error: Failed to apply catalog: undefined method `http_ssl_instance' for Puppet::Network::HttpPool:Module

[uder]

Hello everyone,

I'm trying to use this module and get deprecation error.

Affected Puppet, Ruby, OS and module versions/distributions

• Puppet: 7.2.1
• Ruby:
• Distribution: Centos 7
• Module version: 0.1.1

How to reproduce (e.g Puppet code you use)

To check if module works, i'm trying to use code exact same with example in Readme.

What are you seeing

on line $d = Deferred('vault_lookup::lookup', ["secret/test", 'https://vault.hostname:8200'])
agent falls and I see an error:

Error: Failed to apply catalog: undefined method `http_ssl_instance' for Puppet::Network::HttpPool:Module Did you mean? http_instance

Looks like, module's code uses a deprecated ruby's module. I'm not really familiar with ruby, so I can't inspect this issue closer. Is there any solution?

There is no use of http_ssl_instance in this module, so that error must be coming from somewhere else.

Hi Kenyon,

Thank you for an answer.

I have checked my setup once again and found the issue.
I have installed module using command puppet module install puppet-vault_lookup. Command installed 0.1.1 version of the module (v0.1.1 released Oct 16th 2018). So I get a pretty old version of the module. By the way, as I can see it is a last release in this repo and puppet forge

Anyway, now I have taked module from repo and now it works! It prints another deprecation warning but works:

Warning: The method 'Puppet::Network::HttpPool.http_instance' is deprecated. Use Puppet.runtime[:http] instead
   (file & line not available)

Could you make a new release to a puppet forge?

Kind Regards
