Issue #6773 has been updated by Markus Roberts.

Subject changed from Install Script Fails - Target Dir for Windows to Install 
Script Fails; needs good default configdir for MS Windows
Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted

The workaround for this would be to specify the directory on the command line; 
e.g. something like:

    C:\Projects\Puppet\puppet>ruby install.rb --confdir 
C:\Projects\Puppet\etc\puppet\

which would make it a sibling of your source dir.  This is just a 
suggestion...it could be anything you wanted of course (provided the user 
puppet is running as has the necessary rights); I have know idea what the "best 
practices" location would be in the MS world.

You will likely need to do something analogous for other parameters.




----------------------------------------
Bug #6773: Install Script Fails; needs good default configdir for MS Windows
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6773

Author: Jay Flowers
Status: Accepted
Priority: High
Assignee: 
Category: windows
Target version: 2.6.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.6
Keywords: windows install source
Branch: 


When I run the install.rb script from source I get the following failure 
message:

<pre>
C:\Projects\Puppet\puppet>ruby install.rb
Missing ronn; skipping man page creation
install.rb:92:in `mkdir': No such file or directory - /etc/puppet 
(Errno::ENOENT)
        from install.rb:92:in `do_configs'
        from install.rb:492
</pre>

When I step through with the debugger it looks like this code might be what 
needs to be addressed:

<pre>
265    if not InstallOptions.configdir.nil?     
266      configdir = InstallOptions.configdir   # <- This is not executed
267    else                                     
268      configdir = "/etc/puppet"  # <-This is executed  
269    end                                      
</pre>

I am not sure what is a good, or correct, value for a Widows platform
