Could not recieve information from environment production

  • 772

Im getting this error on my node agent, when i run puppet agent --test

err: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve information from environment production source(s) puppet://puppet/plugins

The problem is that I don't have a environment called "production". Why is that being called? Is "production" some default or required name?

thanks

puppet

    You are using pluginsync (good) however there are no plugin directories on the puppet master - see this page http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2244 Easiest solution is to ensure that you have at least one module with a "lib" subdirectory.

  2. since i was not defining the environment when running puppet agent, it was calling production environment.

    by specifying in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf

    [agent]
environment NAME_OF_NODE

    now it works
