Output log

Any additional information you'd like to impart

As you can see from the node yaml file I tried loading "prometheus" solo, "prometheus::server" solo and a combination of both. The same issue arises with launching a client.

Can you please upgrade to a newer Puppet version like 5.5 or even 6.0?
The module uses data in modules (see hiera.yaml file in module base directory) which has been introduced in Puppet 4.9.

[bastelfreak]

You don't actually run Puppet 2.6, do you? This module requires at least 4.10 to work without issues.

[christianreiss]

I don't run 2.x, no sir (shiver).
Lending a hand. Gave the recommendation to upgrade-- I thought as much that this would be the root issue. Closing this issue.

@christianreiss How did you resolve this issue? I am having same issue using ElasticSearch...

[christianreiss]

I upgraded to current Puppet. It was an ancient-old puppetserver and code.
