Issue with file based users using Puppet

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi there,

I am unable to add file based users. Below are the details of modules
elastic-elastic_stack, "6.2.4"
elastic-elasticsearch, "6.3.3"
elastic-kibana, "6.3.1"

here is the elasticsearch.pp file:

profiles::elasticsearch::instance::users:
  adminuser:
    password: "Password123"
    roles: ['power_user']
  adminuser1:
    password: "Password456"
    roles: ['superuser']

Puppet is creating separate instance (named "elasticsearch-pdev") of elasticsearch but not creating users.

Thanks

Hi @Shrikant_Patil. What ends up being created inside of /etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-pdev/? Are the users.yml files here? Does the puppet run return any failures or error messages during an apply?

Thanks @tylerjlfor response.

Yes, the users.yml flle is there but it is empty. Getting below exception during puppet apply:

Error: /Stage[main]/Elasticsearch::License/Elasticsearch_license[xpack]: Could not evaluate: Elasticsearch API responded with: unable to authenticate user [adminuser] for REST request [/_xpack/license?acknowledge=true]

Thanks,
Shrikant

Hm, that error makes sense given that the users aren't being defined in the yaml. Could you upload the logs of a puppet apply (potentially with the --debug flag) to a pastebin? There should be some sort of output from the provider for the elasticsearch users file, which might help pinpoint what might be failing when it's attempting to write the file.
