Unable to obtain file via archive::nexus with Puppet 4

[smbambling]

Just to note this works correctly on Puppet 3.x.

This seems to have something to do with the faraday_middleware and the checksum that the archive::nexus calls for the archive type.

If you comment out the checksum_url and checksum_type parameters your able to successfully obtain the file from a nexus store.

I've checked and the two variables for urls are generating valid urls that I can manually download both the file and the checksum (md5) file.

$artifact_url = assemble_nexus_url($url, delete_undef_values($query_params))
$checksum_url = regsubst($artifact_url, "p=${packaging}", "p=${packaging}.${checksum_type}")

On a vagrant instance with Puppet 4 I have the following gems installed

# gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

faraday (0.9.1)
faraday_middleware (0.10.0)
json (1.8.3)
multipart-post (2.0.0)

On a host with Puppet 3 installed the only difference seems to be the version of the json gem is 1.5.5, but i've even downgraded that gem and still get the same issue.

I'm guessing this is related to the AIO packaging, and maybe the AIO gem v.s. system gem. FYI, I'll be offline for a while so will not be able to respond or provide further feedback.

I'll keep trying to dig and do some testing for the time being I've set the $checksum_type to none to effectively disable the checking as a work around for anyone else having this issue

Fixed with merge of 70
