All other clients, mostly Debian 5 -based, work perfectly.
For future reference: The "undefined method `closed?' for nil:NilClass" error is a known and very confusing bug in 0.25.x, that is fixed in 0.25.5. It replaces most error messages with this "nil:NilClass" error. Upgrade to fix it, if you want to see the real error. If you can't upgrade, you can find the fix at http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/repository/revisions/ae0b0bf23e418e8c6665e9dc135148b78bdbd913 and manually use it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
