Issue #6775 has been updated by Mark Barry.

Status changed from Closed to Re-opened
Support Urls deleted (http://this.is.a.customer.ticket/)

I have come across the same problem with puppet 3.2.3 on Solaris sparc running 
as root.  Setting confdir and vardir on the command line, only sets the actual 
keys in the value to the command line values:

Eg:
puppet master --genconfig \
   --confdir /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet \
   --vardir /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet/var \
   > /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet/puppet.conf

    # The default value is '/var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet/var'.
    vardir = /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet/var
...
    # Where Puppet PID files are kept.
    # The default value is '$vardir/run'.
    rundir = /var/lib/puppet/run

Really, rundir should be set to /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet/var/run .

Same issue with confdir:
    # The default value is '/var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet'.
    confdir = /var/opt/app/puppetlabs/puppet

But nothing else is set to match this..


    # The private key directory.
    # The default value is '/etc/puppet/ssl/private_keys'.
    privatekeydir = /etc/puppet/ssl/private_keys

    # The YAML file containing indirector route configuration.
    # The default value is '/etc/puppet/routes.yaml'.
    route_file = /etc/puppet/routes.yaml

As 3.2.4 was a security patch release, I haven't worried about trying that 
version of puppet to reproduce the problem.

Running the same command on Linux with 2.7.14, results in the same behaviour.  

WORK AROUND:
If the command line is not broken across lines it works.

RELATED:
To continue the trend of inconsistencies, running puppet agent --genconfig on 
windows results in no output, whereas on linux and solaris (unix I guess) works.

----------------------------------------
looks like --confdir and --vardir is inconsistent and other variables miss 
declared default

    $ puppet master --genconfig --server config1350vm0.dev.orbitz.net > 1
    $ puppet master --genconfig --server config1350vm0.dev.orbitz.net --vardir 
/var/lib/puppet --confdir /etc/puppet > 3

    BUT
    
    $ puppet master --genconfig --server config1350vm0.dev.orbitz.net --vardir
