We currently do not support running the module tool on windows due to its reliance on tar as a packing format. This will be fixed in a future release, see http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11276. The workflow instead is to install the module on your master, and run `puppet agent` on the windows host, which will pluginsync the necessary files from the master to the agent host. The puppetlabs-registry module provides more details about how this process works on windows: https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/registry If instead you want to use `puppet apply`, then you can extract the tarball and point your modulepath at it as described here: http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/2.7/reference/modules_installing.html Josh -- Josh Cooper Developer, Puppet Labs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
