Bugs 912549, 907634, and 907633 all appear to be cases where prerequisites were not met and were not handled gracefully by ssm. I am sorry, but I can no longer recreate the errors as, now that I have learned how to use ssm correctly, I can not remember what I was doing wrong. I hope the bug report captured the information necessary to improve the error handling.
