Issue #12702 has been updated by Jan Ziegler.

Update:

The following content in the timezone.rb file solved the problem for us:


# Fact: timezone
#
# Purpose: Return the machine's time zone.
#
# Resolution: Uses's Ruby's Time module's Time.new call.
#
# Caveats:
#
require 'iconv'

Facter.add("timezone") do
  setcode do
    p Iconv.iconv("UTF-8", "windows-1250",Time.new.zone)
    Iconv.iconv("UTF-8", "windows-1250",Time.new.zone)
  end
end

Hi,

I want to install puppet on Windows Server 2003. I already have a working 
Puppetmaster (Scientific Linux).

I installed puppet the way it's explained here:
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Puppet_Windows

It worked moving files locally via puppet for example.

But when I try to run puppet via Puppetmaster I always get the following Output:

<pre>
notice: Ignoring --listen on onetime run 
info: Retrieving plugin 
err: /File[C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/All 
Users/Anwendungsdaten/PuppetLabs/puppet/var/lib]:

err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run 
notice: /File[C:/Dokumente und Einstellungen/All 
Users/Anwendungsdaten/PuppetLabs/puppet/var/state/last_run_summary.yaml]/content:
 
</pre>

But what about the database - UTF8 Problem?
Can you please tell me why I get this error message and what can be done to fix 
it?

Thanks
