Issue #4867 has been updated by John Warburton.
Markus
First of all apologies - I somehow unwatched this item and in the week before
puppet training, then puppet training, I lost sight of this issue
Thanks for looking at this, for what it is worth, with the debugging I got this:
Could not find user puppet of ["puppet"]
err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: No valid users found.
Reading through your investigation, I have put in a swag of require =>
User["puppet"] everywhere I can see. It really helped compiling the catalog
(training paying off already!) and looking for resources with owner puppet but
no requires for the User["puppet"]
I have run through a number of test cases and it looks OK. I have a few more to
go, but our virtual test environment was moved over the weekend, so am testing
on slow physical hardware. I will update the issue with my full findings when
complete
Probably my only comment on this is that the error messages were not helpful in
chasing down the issue. I would have hoped for an error on a specific resource
(with line number :-)

Bug #4867: Puppet raises error when trying to set owner to non-existant user
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4867
Author: Brian Gallew
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: Markus Roberts
Category: agent
Target version: 2.6.3
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.1
Keywords:
Branch: http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/2.6.x/4867
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.
