I have foreman 1.5.0 up and running with my puppetmaster (3.6.1). I am
using it to manage the physical hosts and virtual hosts on an openstack
(havana) system. When I launch a new virtual host it registers with my
foreman instance and I can see it getting updated reports. However if I
want to edit the host and add a puppet class I am getting a "Failed to
save: Name is invalid error" after I hit submit. Here is what I do to get
this error.
Log into Foreman UI
Navigate to all hosts
Select the Virtual Instance I want to edit
I click the Edit button
I select the Puppet Classes tab in the edit menu
I select the Class I want added to the VM
I hit the Submit button
The page goes back to the Host tab and the Name box is highlighted red and
there is a "is invalid" message at the end of the box.
Here is the log snippet from the production log
