[tokozedg]

Affected Puppet, Ruby, OS and module versions/distributions

• Puppet: 5.1.3
• Ruby: 2.4.1p111
• Distribution: Debian 8
• Module version: 7.0.0

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

  class { '::splunk::params':
    version  => $version,
    build    => $build,
    src_root => $src_root,
  }
  include ::splunk::forwarder

puppet agent -t

What are you seeing

Error 500 on agent

What behaviour did you expect instead

Forwarder installed.

Output log

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: no parameter named 'purge_forwarder_deploymentclient' at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/master/modules/splunk/manifests/params.pp:258 on Splunk_config[splunk] at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/master/modules/splunk/manifests/params.pp:258 on node XXX

Any additional information you'd like to impart

I have been using puppet-splunk version 5.1.0 so far.
After upgrading to version 7.0.0 I get following error and can't install forwarder any more.

Restarting puppet server helped with the issue.
