puppet agent doesn't detect package to install

[sébastien dagnicourt]

Hello,

I have a puppet agent (3.4.3) on a windows 2012 server.
The agent, when running as a service, doesn't detect that a package is not installed on the server and do nothing.
However, if I launch the puppet_interactive.bat script it works.

Any ideas ?

Could be quite a few things, including permissions, network resource access, etc.

You might try debug output on the service, it's possibly failing or needing an interactive session to install.

The above is somewhat more involved to accomplish with 3.4.3, so I've attached an image for you once you get into the services management console[1]. Once you have started that, the output is going to be in the eventlog. It can be very chatty, so it might take some digging.
