After right at a hundred successful agent installs on a very heterogeneous 
mix of Server 2003 and Server 2008, I've encountered one machine that 
doesn't want to cooperate.  The problem agent is the open source Puppet 
3.4.3 MSI running on Server 2003.

I run "puppet resource package" and I get "Error: Could not run: Type 0 is 
not supported."  I add "--debug --trace --verbose" and the first entry 
after the error is "C:/Program Files/Puppet 
Labs/Puppet/sys/ruby/lib/ruby/1.9.1/win32/registry.rb:605:in 'read'".  
Invoking "puppet resource service" works just fine.

This is the same MSI I've used on the hundred other machines.  I ran the 
md5 sum just to make sure it wasn't corrupted in transfer.  I uninstalled 
and reinstalled.  Same behavior.  (The agent is configured to communicate 
with a master, and that's where I first encountered the problem.  I thought 
maybe reproducing the problem this way would take master interactions and 
catalog issues out of the equation.)

The machine itself is remote and I'm limited on what I can do to it.  
Anything else I ought to try?
