Hello,
I''ve set up a puppetmaster on red hat and a client on windows 7
(puppet version 2.7.9 on both), and I''m getting this error when I run
puppet agent --server <myserver.com> --waitforcert 60 --test:
info: Applying configuration version ''1327098121''
err: /Stage[main]/Win_test/Package[win_test]/ensure: change from
absent to present failed: The source parameter is required when using
the MSI provider.
My manifest looks like this:
class win_test {
package { win_test: ensure => present }
file { "c:/test/win_test_file":
ensure => ''file'',
owner = ''Administrator'',
source =>
''puppet:///modules/win_test/win_test_file'',
require => Package["win_test"]
}
}
I have a file at /etc/puppet/modules/win_test/files/win_test_file.
In bug #9607, there is a reference to the same error message when
running ''puppet resource package'', but that runs fine for me.
Is there an error in my manifest or is there a problem with my windows
configuration somewhere?
Thanks,
--

At present, this must be a local file (or mapped drive). Presumably, the msi you want to install, is the one you downloaded from your module? If so, then you just need: package { ''win_test'': ensure => ''installed'', source => ''c:/test/win_test_file'' } Josh -- Josh Cooper Developer, Puppet Labs -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Thanks, I didn''t realize it had to be a local file.
