Puppet users - Sep 2010 - Error in using custom providers - can't recognize custom provider

Hi,

I''m using custom providers for installing pear and pecl package. But
every time
I ran puppetd --test, 

it says that pear provider is not recognized.

But when I remove the custom providers from /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/provider 
(client server),
and ran puppetd --test once more, it downloads the custom providers and 
everything works out fine.

Is this a bug in 2.6

Hey Mark,

I''ve recently asked for a similar question as yours.
So be careful, the correct directory for a custom provider is :

<module>/lib/puppet/provider/package/<your_provider.rb>

Then Puppet will copy it into /var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/provider/
package/<your_provider.rb>.

Hope it helps
