[Melissa Stone (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Melissa Stone commented on PUP-6739   Re: Error running puppet with non-existent and non-default environment Thomas Mueller are you saying that setting [agent] environment = xyz is causing the following failure? # puppet config print environment /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/environments.rb:38:in `get!': Could not find a directory environment named 'xyz' anywhere in the path: /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments. Does the directory exist? (Puppet::Environments::EnvironmentNotFound) from /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/application_support.rb:29:in `push_application_context' from /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/application.rb:346:in `run' from /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/util/command_line.rb:132:in `run' from /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/lib/ruby/vendor_ruby/puppet/util/command_line.rb:72:in `execute' from /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/puppet:5:in `<main>' In my exploration of this issue, that failure only occurred with # cat /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/puppet.conf environment = xyz or # cat /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/puppet.conf [main] environment = xyz Setting environment under the [agent] section allowed puppet config and puppet help to function as expected. Paul Anderson Are you asking me to address the warning that folks are seeing when the local environment doesn't match the server specified node environment, rather than the error users are reporting here when running commands like puppet config?
