That's a very very old client. If at all possible you should upgrade to 0.25.x or at least 0.24.8. Try running puppet with --verbose and --debug. What's piece from the manifest that its failing on? Is the server 2.6.x? II don't think that backward compatibility is preserved between 2 major versions. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
