Bug Description

When I run install.sh I get a large HTML error when the script tries to run puppet plugin download:

--
+ puppet plugin download --server cvf3-server-a15.cisco.com
Error: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'eval_generate: Error 500 on SERVER: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd">
<html>
....
</html>

No plugins downloaded.
+ service apache2 restart
 * Restarting web server apache2

In the syslog I see:

--

If I change the ownership of /var/lib/puppet/reports then it works fine:

--
chown -R puppet:puppet /var/lib/puppet/reports
