My puppet master is behind a proxy and unable to connect to a gem repo, so I used a different machine to fetch hiera and hiera-puppet gems, and the hiera-puppet source tarball.
I then did a gem install on them, and I made sure that hiera was in the path, and extracted the hiera-puppet sources into my modulepath. I ran puppet agent on the master (as suggested by a comment on http://puppetlabs.com/blog/first-look-installing-and-using-hiera/ ) and I also did a service puppetmaster restart. I set up a basic hierarchy, with just a common layer for right now, and I added some variables to it. When I do a puppet run, I get the following error: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: no such file to load -- hiera Did I miss a step, or am I doing something wrong? I am using puppet 2.7.14 on Lucid for my puppet master, and the agent in question is running 2.7.16 on Precise. My hiera.yaml is: --- :hierarchy: - common :backends: - yaml :yaml: :datadir: '/etc/puppet/environments/%{environment}/hieradata' -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
