Issue #4867 has been updated by John Warburton.

File puppet_client_issue4867.log added

Oh dear. I am getting this too on 2.6.3rc2. Never had the problem on 0.25.5

I did an install on a clean jumpstarted Solaris 10 U9 server (my previous 
testing was an "upgrade" from 0.25.5 to 2.6.x on servers that were in my 
puppet_server class which already had the puppet user installed)

This is my environment:

1) Rolled my on package from 2.6.3rc2 tar ball. Just copied bin, lib, sbin from 
distribution

2) Generate my own configuration file:

    /opt/local/sbin/puppetd \
        --confdir /var/puppet/etc \
        --vardir /var/puppet/var \
        --server puppet.bfm.com \
        --report_server puppet.bfm.com \
        --ca_server puppet-ca.bfm.com \
        --pluginsync \
        --factsource puppet:///facts/ \
        --pluginsource puppet:///plugins \
        --report \
        --genconfig \
        --color=false \
        | sed -e 's/genconfig = true/genconfig = false/' \
        > /var/puppet/etc/puppetd.conf

3) Run with
/opt/local/sbin/puppetd --environment prod --verbose --logdest 
/var/log/puppet_client/puppet_client.log --onetime --no-daemonize --config 
/var/puppet/etc/puppetd.conf --color=false

A failed run with --trace --debug attached

Like Brian, if I useradd puppet, all is OK, but fails again when I delete the 
puppet user

Bug #4867: On Solaris, puppet client requires the puppet user to exist before 
running
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4867

Author: Brian Gallew
Status: Investigating
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Nick Lewis
Category: agent
Target version: 2.6.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.1
Keywords: 
Branch: 


WHen I ran 0.25.5, I relied on the puppet client to create the puppet user.  
Since I've upgraded to 2.6.1, the puppet user must already exist before the 
puppet client will run, otherwise the puppet client bails with an error:
err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find user puppet

This seems to be a fairly major regression.
