James Turnbull mostly answered this one, but didn't mention the "plugin sync". It can be error can be safely ignored, but is distracting when debugging. Add "pluginsync = false" to the client to bypass it. If you want to fix it, add a directory called "lib" to one of your modules. The directory can be empty. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group. To post to this group, send email to puppet-us...@googlegroups.com.
