windows Environment variable problem

[kaustubh chaudhari]

Hi All,

I noticed after installing puppet agent on windows i am not able to execute any thing with my PATH variable.

Also noticed that if i add quotes to puppet path variable every thing works fine.

Fresh Install: Will not work.

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin

Updated wtih " " to puppet entry: Every thing works

%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;"C:\Program Files (x86)\Puppet Labs\Puppet\bin"

I am using puppet 3.6.2 agent on windows 2008 with 3.6.2 as master.

Any idea why this has to be done cause this is going to give me a lot of trouble with puppet rollout.

Any idea why this could be causing the issue ? And how to fix it ?
