Puppet shouldn't be copying custom facts into this directory, the default location on Windows is C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\lib Here's a screenshot of the default behavior of the MSI packages published at https://downloads.puppetlabs.com/windows/ http://links.puppetlabs.com/windows_msi_plugindest.png In the screenshot, you can see puppet agent downloads and loads plugins from C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\lib, facter doesn't load facts from here without the --puppet option, and that the plugindest setting is set to C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\lib > but when I set the variable FACTERLIB on window to: > > set FACTERLIB=C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet Labs\Puppet\facter\lib\facter; > **C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\**puppet\var\lib\facter > You really shouldn't have to set FACTERLIB at all. facter did see the custom fact: > > C:\Windows\system32>facter udp_status > > C:\Windows\system32>set FACTERLIB=C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet > Labs\Puppet\facter\lib\facter;**C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\** > puppet\var\lib\facter > > C:\Windows\system32>facter udp_status > true > > is there a way to change that? > Yes, this is the plugindest setting in puppet.conf. Please let me know if the default behavior is something other than the setting of C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\var\lib -Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
