Installation on RHEL 6.5 fails

[pythianali]

I get the following error when trying to deploy on RHEL 6.5

[root@puppet modules]# puppet module install gini-archive --debug

Any ideas?

I get the same error on ubuntu 14.04:

ls -l /etc/puppet/modules/archive/spec/fixtures/modules/archive/templates

lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 21 Jul 15 13:11 /etc/puppet/modules/archive/spec/fixtures/modules/archive/templates -> ../../../../templates

My workaround was to try other 'archive' modules until I found one that worked for me until this is resolved.

This is really strange:

I'll have a closer look into this issue.

I think we stumbled on what this is. Its happening because puppet is installed on a system with multiple partitions vs one with a single root partition and the module installation process has symlink related issues. See: https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-1639

I believe I'm hitting this with librarian too:
