    Description

      The Problem

      [root@agent201621-centos ~]# puppet agent -t 
      Info: Using configured environment 'production'

      [root@agent201621-centos ~]# puppet config set environment fake --section agent
      		 
       
      		 
      [root@agent201621-centos ~]# puppet agent -t
      		 
      Warning: Unable to fetch my node definition, but the agent run will continue:
      		 
      Warning: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find environment 'fake'
      		 
      Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
      		 
      Error: /File[/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/facts.d]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'eval_generate': Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find environment 'fake'
      		 
      Error: /File[/opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/facts.d]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve file metadata for puppet:///pluginfacts: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find environment 'fake'
      		 
      Info: Retrieving plugin

      Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
      		 
      Error: Could not send report: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find environment 'fake'

      Now if I go ahead and make the environment on the master, it'll compile the catalog against the production environment as expected.

      On the master: 

      [root@master201621-centos ~]# cp -r /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/ /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/fake

      Now on the agent:

      [root@agent201621-centos ~]# puppet agent -t
      		 
      Notice: Local environment: 'fake' doesn't match server specified node environment 'production', switching agent to 'production'.
      		 
      Info: Retrieving pluginfacts
      		 
      Info: Retrieving plugin

      Info: Applying configuration version '1475855805'
      		 
      Notice: Applied catalog in 0.36 seconds

      Expected Behavior

      The existence of the environment that the agent sets in puppet.conf should not matter if the ENC is controlling the environment. I expect this message in both cases. 

      Notice: Local environment: 'fake' doesn't match server specified node environment 'production', switching agent to 'production'.
