Puppet, Windows, and UAC
- by usedTobeaMember
Is it possible to use Puppet on Windows where UAC is enabled?  Does Puppet have any method for automatically saying yes to UAC prompts for a software install?  My module does the following workflow:
Downloads an MSI file locally from the Puppetmaster
Creates a local batch file using template function which does cmd.exe /c msifile.msi /i /quiet ....
Runs bat file in an Exec.
Unfortunately, it fails due to UAC, I am wondering how people are working around UAC in their Windows Puppet environments.  The Puppet documentation seems to only talk about Puppet's own executable in regards to UAC.
