Title: Message Title

Edward Cullen created an issue   Puppet Task Runner / BOLT-1489 WinRM: Misleading error message when cacert file cannot be found Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: BOLT 1.26.0 Assignee: Unassigned Components: WinRM Created: 2019/07/26 11:02 AM Environment: Windows 10 Priority: Normal Reporter: Edward Cullen If a cacert file is specified in bolt.yaml and the specified file cannot be found, rather than returning an obvious/helpful error, such as "Configured cacert file cannot be found.", Bolt will attempt to connect and return the following error: [ { "node": "host.example.com", "target": "host.example.com", "action": null, "object": null, "status": "failure", "result": { "_error": { "kind": "puppetlabs.tasks/connect-error", "msg": "Failed to connect to http://host.example.com:5985/wsman: system lib", "details": { }, "issue_code": "CONNECT_ERROR" } } } ]   Note: This will occur even if --no-ssl is specified. Assumption: (not tested) Will see similar behaviour if file cannot be read (permissions problem) Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.7.1#77002-sha1:e75ca93) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
