One odd thing is that setting "show_diff=false" in puppet.conf, in "agent" stanza seems to be ignored, I get the error still.
I am not a Windows guy, but I installed GNU diff and it seems like it could be pretty straightforward to deploy: - Get installer : http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/downlinks/diffutils.php - Run it: C:\Temp\diffutils-2.8.7-1.exe /silent - Add "diff' to puppet.conf: diff = "C:\Program Files\GnuWin32\bin\diff" et voila. Thanks, Mohamed.
