I've installed Puppet using the foreman-installer and it installed successfully.
Then, I wanted to install Hiera as I have some modules which use hiera functions so I've installed hiera and created a relevant hiera.yaml file in /etc/puppet which looks like that:
:backends:
- yaml
:yaml:
:datadir: '/etc/puppet/hieradata/%{::environment}'
:hierarchy:
- fqdns/%{::fqdn}
- roles/%{::role}
- domains/%{::domain}
- common
In addition, I've created a symbolic link from /etc/puppet/hiera.yaml to /etc/hiera.yaml.
I've also created the required folders to support the hiera hierarchy.
Here's a list of gem packages which are installed on the server:
ansi (1.4.3)
clamp (0.6.2)
facter (2.4.4)
ffi (1.0.9)
foreman_api (0.1.11)

hiera as a command works in the server:
[root@dev5-puppet01 puppet]# hiera role
nil
But when I run: puppet agent -t, I get the following error:
[root@dev5-puppet01 puppet]# puppet agent -t

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Unknown function hiera_include at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:2 on node dev5-puppet01.domain.com
warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
I've ran locate hiera_include and found it here:
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/hiera-puppet-1.0.0/lib/puppet/parser/functions/hiera_include.rb
which seems to be the right path for the function.
Puppet's site.pp looks like that:
[root@dev5-puppet01 puppet]# cat /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
# Empty site.pp required (puppet #15106, foreman #1708)
hiera_include('classes'
)
Some relevant info: Puppet version: 2.7.26 Pluginsync is enabled on Puppet server which acts also as it's own client.
So what am I doing wrong? How come the function is not found by Puppet?
