Puppet users - Aug 2012 - puppet client environment is being ignored from foreman settings

Hi experts .
i am runnig foreman 1 
puppetmaster 2.7.18
i have setup a test client machine .
on foreman i have configured the new client to be part of the development 
environment .
on the client i have setup that it will run the following from site.pp to 
debug information .
notify { "environment":
    message => $environment


when i run on the client .
puppet agent    --test --debug --verbose

i get "Notify[environment]/message: defined ''message'' as
''production''"
allthought on foreman this client is setup as "development"
when i add the 
environment  = development on the client /etc/puppet.puppet.conf 
the client get "Notify[environment]/message: defined
''message'' as
''development''"   which is ok .

BTW in foreman => settings 
i have default_puppet_environment = testing 
which is beeing ignored via the client .


is this normal that i need to override the foreman client setting . with a 
"environment  = development on the client /etc/puppet.puppet.conf "
????


thank you

Hi Yaniv,

Do you have the environment defined in puppet.conf on the agent and use
Foreman as an ENC? If so, you''re probably seeing
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3910.

Some users are getting around this bug by adding functionality to the ENC
script that validates the environment defined in Foreman against the one in
the host''s puppet.conf. Someone who has done this might be able to help
you
on the foreman-users list.

Yaniv,

I was asking if you happen to have an environment defined on your agent in
puppet.conf. Anyhow, we can handle this over on foreman-users :)
