Hi all,

Just upgraded from 3.4.something to 3.7.5 and it seems how we were doing
environments is depreciated. I've followed a couple of docs* for how to do
this but seem to be missing something. Nodes can't seem to find modules.
For now it's not a big deal because it's just a warning but I'd like to
address the issue.

(and linked docs)

Here's the old config values in /etc/puppet/puppet.conf for environments:

[main]
....
....
modulepath = /etc/puppet/modules
...
...
...
environment = production
confdir = /etc/puppet

[production]
manifest = $confdir/manifests/site.pp
modulepath =
$confdir/environments/production/modules:$confdir/environments/test/site/modules

[test]
manifest = $confdir/manifests/non-prod_site.pp
modulepath =
$confdir/environments/test/modules:$confdir/environments/test/site/modules

[development]
manifest = $confdir/manifests/non-prod_site.pp
modulepath =
$confdir/environments/dev/modules:$confdir/environments/dev/site/modules



PROPOSED:
[main]
....
....
# modulepath = /etc/puppet/modules
environmentpath = $confdir/environments
default_manifest = /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
...
...
...
# environment = production
confdir = /etc/puppet

# [production]
# manifest = $confdir/manifests/site.pp
# modulepath =
$confdir/environments/production/modules:$confdir/environments/test/site/modules

# [test]
# manifest = $confdir/manifests/non-prod_site.pp
# modulepath =
$confdir/environments/test/modules:$confdir/environments/test/site/modules

# [development]
# manifest = $confdir/manifests/non-prod_site.pp
# modulepath =
$confdir/environments/dev/modules:$confdir/environments/dev/site/modules
