Title: Message Title

Josh Cooper commented on PUP-6802   Re: Agent cannot compile catalog if it specifies an non-existent environment in puppet.conf even when the classifier is controlling environment This change requires that the puppet-agent package is updated on the agent and the server. The agent works as expected if configured to use a server-specified environment web: [root@vice-disarray ~]# mkdir -p /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/web/manifests [root@vice-disarray ~]# chown -R puppet:puppet /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/ [root@vice-disarray ~]# cat <<END > /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/web/manifests/site.pp notify \{ 'in web': } END [root@vice-disarray ~]# cat /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/enc.sh #!/bin/sh   cat <<END --- classes: environment: web END [root@vice-disarray ~]# puppet agent -t Info: Retrieving pluginfacts Info: Retrieving plugin Info: Retrieving locales Notice: Local environment: 'production' doesn't match server specified environment 'web', restarting agent run with environment 'web' Info: Retrieving pluginfacts Info: Retrieving plugin Info: Retrieving locales Info: Caching catalog for vice-disarray.delivery.puppetlabs.net Info: Applying configuration version '1627922221' Notice: in web Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/Notify[in web]/message: defined 'message' as 'in web' Notice: Applied catalog in 0.01 seconds In addition, due to this change, the agent can request an environment that doesn't exist, and it will be reassigned to the server-specified environment: [root@vice-disarray ~]# puppet agent -t -E doesntexist Notice: Environment 'doesntexist' not found on server, skipping initial pluginsync.
