[Hunter Haugen (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Hunter Haugen created an issue   Puppet / PUP-3226 Non-existent directory environments should raise a helpful error Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Created: 09/Sep/14 5:11 PM Environment: puppet 3.6.2 Priority: Normal Reporter: Hunter Haugen If in puppet.conf I have: [main] basemodulepath = /etc/puppet/modules environmentpath = /etc/puppet/envs and if /etc/puppet/modules/test/manifests/init.pp exists with class\ test { }}} in it, and if /etc/puppet/envs/production does not exist, when I run {{puppet agent -t I get Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find class test for ... This is because if $environmentpath/$environment does not exist then the environment is considered to be non-existent. If I create /etc/puppet/envs/production (even leaving it empty) then it will work as desired. To avoid red-herring hunts, it would probably be better UX to have the puppetmaster raise an error describing that the environment (in this case "production") cannot be found in the environmentpath.
