The "undefined method `closed?' for nil:NilClass" error is a known and very confusing bug in 0.25.x, that is fixed in 0.25.5. It replaces most error messages with this "nil:NilClass" error. Upgrade to fix it, if you want to see the real error. Bug report: (Most of the information isn't applicable till you get near the end) http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3101 If you can't upgrade the whole package, you can find the fix at http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/repository/revisions/ae0b0bf23e418e8c6665e9dc135148b78bdbd913 and manually use it. In this case, "use" means: 1) Get the diff 2) Find that file on your client 3) Manually change that file Someone really needs to make an FAQ entry and try to get that patch into Debian and Lucid (Ubuntu). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
