juju says error: No selected controller. when there is a typo in the -m parameter it should say "could not find specified model"

[Jay R. Wren]

This had a typo and the resulting error message was misleading:

$ juju status -m serverstack-worload:controller
error: No selected controller.

Please use "juju switch" to select a controller.

Fixing the typo shows that a "No selected controller." was NOT the problem:

$ juju status -m serverstack-workload:controller
MODEL CONTROLLER CLOUD/REGION VERSION
controller serverstack-workload serverstack/serverstack 2.0.0.1

I am assuming you were running Juju 2. We track these bugs against "juju" project.

Could you please confirm what version you were running? rc3?

[Jay R. Wren (evarlast)]

Yes, it was a master build from cc2f08ef5a67100376bdbefc5e32f165a1aa1313

I only assume the same is true of rc3.

Thanks for reminding me bug tracking location moved. I'll update my
bookmarks.
