Jira (PUP-1131) Puppet raises error when trying to set owner to non-existant user

Title: Message Title

Jason Antman commented on an issue   Re: Puppet raises error when trying to set owner to non-existant user The only useful in the Redmine ticket that's directly related to the ticket (puppet creating the "puppet" user) is over 2 years old, and talking about 0.25 and 2.6. Neither the original reporter nor the person who commented a year ago are watching the Redmine ticket, let alone this one. Given how long it's been since there were updates to this, and that all of those updates are about a now-deprecated (and in fact archaic) version, I'm going to close this "Unable to Reproduce". Feel free to reopen if anyone thinks it's still an issue. Add Comment   Puppet / PUP-1131 Puppet raises error when trying to set owner to non-existant user When I ran 0.25.5, I relied on the puppet client to create the puppet user. Since I've upgraded to 2.6.1, the puppet user must already exist before the puppet client will run, otherwise the puppet client bails with an error: err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Could not find user puppet This seems to be a fairly major regression.
