Greetings,
I am really stuggling here and would love another set of eyes. After a
failed attempt to migrate to Puppet 4 (my crappy modules need more work
then I have time for), I went back to Puppet 3. Only this time, I have the
chance to improve upon where things went wonky last time.
The plan I want:
Puppetmaster01 runs Apache Passengermod as the puppetmaster.
Puppetmaster02 runs puppetdb and postgreSQL.
That shouldn't be hard right? Except I can _not_ get puppetdb to work. I
have gone through countless guides and documentation and it just flat out
fails.
Fine. I give up doing it on my own. I will use puppetlabs puppetdb module.
After many hours of the same failures as before, I decided to simplify
things.
Everything on puppetmaster01 with no apache, puppetmaster, no postgreSQL,
and puppetdb.
Fresh install!
I configure EL6 to pull RPM packages from puppetlabs.
$ yum install puppet-server
$ cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
[main]
logdir = /var/log/puppet
rundir = /var/run/puppet
ssldir = $vardir/ssl
server = puppetmaster01.domain.org
[agent]
classfile = $vardir/classes.txt
localconfig = $vardir/localconfig
$ cat /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
node 'puppetmaster01.domain.org' { }
$ puppet agent -t
Horray! It works! Now to configure puppetdb!
$ puppet module install puppetlabs-puppetdb

/etc/puppet/modules
└─┬ puppetlabs-puppetdb (v5.0.0)
├── puppetlabs-firewall (v1.7.0)

│ ├── puppetlabs-apt (v2.1.1)
│ └── puppetlabs-concat (v1.2.4)
└── puppetlabs-stdlib (v4.7.0)
Now to configure the host! The documentation says:
"
node puppetmaster {
# Configure puppetdb and its underlying database
class { 'puppetdb': }
# Configure the puppet master to use puppetdb
class { 'puppetdb::master::config': }
}
You can provide some parameters for these classes if you’d like more
control, but that is literally all that it will take to get you up and
running with the default configuration."
That is obviously false to anyone that attempts it. Full of errors.
Here is my site.pp
$ cat /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
node 'puppetmaster01.domain.org' {
class { 'puppetdb':
# Force embedded for simplicity.
database => 'embedded',
# Puppetlabs RPMs install to different location then the puppetdb
module wants them in.
confdir=>'/etc/puppetdb/conf.d',
}
class { 'puppetdb::master::config':
# Once again, puppetlabs names their package one way but their module
looks for something different.
terminus_package=>'puppetdb-terminus',
}
}
Now to run again. Snipping out the
$ puppet agent -t

Grrrrrr...
$ rpm -qa | grep -i puppet
puppetdb-2.3.6-1.el6.noarch
puppet-3.8.2-1.el6.noarch
puppetdb-terminus-2.3.6-1.el6.noarch
puppet-server-3.8.2-1.el6.noarch
I have even disabled the firewall and selinux. I can connect with telnet to
the host on 8081. Things are listening (I can see them with netstat), but
not connecting.
What gives? I would think that using the puppetlabs provided rpms with the
puppetlabs provided module following the puppetlabs documentation on a
single host that this would be straight forward. Where am I going wrong??
Please help. ;-)
Thanks!
