RedHat 7 version number comparison is incorrect

[ikke-t]

the params.pp file has this:

::operatingsystemrelease < '7'

and on rhel7 facter has these:

operatingsystemmajrelease => 7
operatingsystemrelease => 7.0

So you should likely change the if statement to have the major release changed from:

  if $::operatingsystemrelease < '7' {

to

  if $::operatingsystemmajrelease < '7' {

Otherwise you end up comparing string to integer and it doesn't work.

on centos 7 there is the same problem:
operatingsystem => CentOS
operatingsystemmajrelease => 7
operatingsystemrelease => 7.0.1406

with the variable name modification in init.pp, it works ok

works for me as well

$::operatingsystemmajrelease works for us on Centos 7. Thanks

I was running into the same problem. I was able to fix it with the same fix above.

Yes, and the error is:

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: comparison of String with 7 failed at /etc/puppet/environments/myenvironment/modules/selinux/manifests/params.pp:16 on node ...
