Re: [Puppet Users] Unable to install Puppet Modules

[Dan White]

First thing I'd suggest is doing the commands from a root shell.

sudo su -
puppet module install puppet/stdlib --debug --verbose

I have found that doing commands on the "sudo-line" do not always behave themselves.

Subject: [Puppet Users] Unable to install Puppet Modules

Hi Puppet Users - 

Currently attempting to install puppet modules on a Security Onion virtual machine. Security Onion is based on Ubuntu 12.04.

Puppet was installed using the puppetlabs-release-precise.deb file found on apt.puppetlabs.com.

Attempting to install a module results in the following error - 

user@user-virtual-machine:~$ sudo puppet module install puppet/stdlib --debug --verbose

Notice: Preparing to install into /etc/puppet/modules ...

Notice: Downloading from https://forge.puppetlabs.com ...

Error: Could not execute operation for 'puppet/stdlib'

  The server being queried was https://forge.puppetlabs.com

  The HTTP response we received was '410 Gone'

  The message we received said 'Module puppet/stdlib not found'

    Check the author and module names are correct.

user@user-virtual-machine:~$ sudo puppet help | tail -n 1

Puppet v3.3.2

This machine is fully up to date.

Any ideas why this might not be working or what I could do to further dig into the issue?

Thanks!

"puppet module install puppetlabs/stdlib" is the command you want, its
puppetlabs not puppet :-).
