Issue #9174 has been updated by Nick Lewis. Status changed from Accepted to In Topic Branch Pending Merge
Available in topic branch https://github.com/nicklewis/puppet/tree/ticket/2.7.x/9174 and pull request https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/63. This uses the same error message we give in the microsoft_windows feature when gems are missing. ---------------------------------------- Refactor #9174: Improve puppet installer error message on Windows https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9174 Author: Jacob Helwig Status: In Topic Branch Pending Merge Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: windows Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: development Keywords: Branch: When run with a fresh install of Ruby 1.8.7-p334, the Puppet installer bombs out with the following error: E:\puppet>ruby install.rb C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:29:in `gem_original_require': no such file to load -- win32/dir (LoadError) from C:/Ruby187/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/rubygems/custom_require.rb:29:in `require' from install.rb:247:in `prepare_installation' from install.rb:448 The installer should instead give a message similar to Puppet itself stating that there is a list of required gems that need to be installed for Puppet to work. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
