On the client Client #] puppetd --test --trace
http://pastebin.com/eft1Qmuv Full output of the command is above, last three lines, # err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: hostname was not match with the server certificate # warning: Not using cache on failed catalog # err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I have attempted to track down where this problem is coming from. DNS is setup correctly. No host names have been changed, so I am at a lost as to how such a mistake could be made. But then, I am just believing the text of the error message. Puppet.domain.com puppetmaster.domain.com both point to the correct machine. The client can connect to the server with no problem, and also vice versa. The firewall is relaxed sufficiently on both client and server for puppet to communicate. Both systems are on the same network switch, all other networking services work pretty much perfectly. Any assistance will be highly appreciated, I have numerous crates of virtual beer I will gladly send your way, and for the none drinkers, I have a delightful selection of virtual foods from around the world which I can send your way ☺ **** Next paragraph is the long dormant student in me happy at the chance to learn something so powerful, which great power comes great responsibility, (yeah, right, whatever, I just want to be able to bring up a MySQL cluster in 5 minutes, and watch my dev teams face! **** I am prepared to LEARN puppet! Please teach me! I have even gone to you-tube to attempt to locate some video tutorials, but alas, no luck. (I was distracted by 45 minutes of people scaring the life out of other folks), This list, and IRC are my only hope to become a puppet master – I’ve even got that book pulling strings with puppet. I did notice a lot of advice in that book that isn’t really reflected in a number of examples on the net, (unless I’m too slow to recognize the patterns). Anyway, I will stop rambling now – I think puppet is the future, and I am desperate to learn and understand, so feel free to refer me to websites, blogs, forums, amazon, (book purchases!), and google, (in case I missed an obvious search!) Now, back to my original issue! Oh, I am on IRC, irc.freenode.org lurkin in the #puppet room ☺ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
