I've been battling this issue all week with a new puppet (open source) 
build out. I stood up the puppet master and configured it. I have a test 
agent that works correctly (external to the master). However, the master is 
also an agent pointing to itself. In this instance, ep1p-apux06 is the 
puppet master. I generated the cert using the hostname 'puppet.domain.com' 
to try to prevent accidental deletion of the puppet master cert when 
running 'puppet cert clean --all'.

I can run 'puppet agent -t' on the master and it runs without error. But 30 
minutes in, and these errors show up in the log files, even though if I 
rerun the puppet agent, it comes back without errors.

*Jun 19 08:39:43 ep1p-apux06 puppet-agent[20602]: Unable to fetch my node 
definition, but the agent run will continue:*
*Jun 19 08:39:43 ep1p-apux06 puppet-agent[20602]: The certificate retrieved 
from the master does not match the agent's private key.*

*Jun 19 08:39:43 ep1p-apux06 puppet-agent[20602]: To fix this, remove the 
certificate from both the master and the agent and then start a puppet run, 
which will automatically regenerate a certficate.*

I can run the agent test on itself and it comes back without error:
*[root@ep1p-apux06 puppet]# puppet agent -t*
*Info: Retrieving pluginfacts*
*Info: Retrieving plugin*
*Info: Caching catalog for ep1p-apux06.domain.com*
*Info: Applying configuration version '1434634454'*
*Notice: Finished catalog run in 0.29 seconds*

I've ran the 'puppet cert clean ep1p-apux06.domain.com' and removed any ssl 
certs that might have remained:
*[root@ep1p-apux06 puppet]# puppet cert clean ep1p-apux06.domain.com*
*Notice: Revoked certificate with serial 13*
*Notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::Certificate ep1p-apux06.domain.com at

*Notice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest

*[root@ep1p-apux06 puppet]# find /var/lib/puppet/ssl -name 
ep1p-apux06.domain.com.pem -delete*

And then I rerun the 'puppet agent -t' again to regenerate the cert which 
completes successfully (I have 'autosign = true' on the master to automate 
adding new clients).

puppet.conf:
*[root@ep1p-apux06 puppet]# cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf*
*[main]*

*    # extension indicating the cache format is added automatically.*
*    # The default value is '$confdir/localconfig'.*
*    localconfig = $vardir/localconfig*


Unfortunately 30 minutes later, the same error pops up in the messages file.

Any thoughts on what I might be missing?
