[Puppet Users] Re: SSL_connect SYSCALL returned=5
I'm using webrick but I also have apache installed on the master because I need it for something else. Could it be because apache is also using ssl or something like that is causing the problem?

[Puppet Users] Re: Certificate verify failed
So there is something wrong with the date of the certificate. When I do "openssl x509 -text -in -noout /etc/puppet/ssl/certs/client.pem | grep -A2 Validity", I get: Validity Not Before: Dec 7 14:08:10 2010 GMT Not After : Dec 6 14:08:10 2015 GMT However, the current date of the client is Dec 8 which is well within the valid range. The date is also the same as master server. But when I change the date of the client to Dec 9, everything works fine and I don't get that certificate verify failed error anymore. This is baffling! Any idea how to fix this? Thanks!

[Puppet Users] Certificate verify failed
Whenever I try to connect to the master from the client, I get the following error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=SSLv3 read server certificate B: certificate verify failed I tried google and most of the results say the problem is due the difference in clock between the server and client. However, my server and client have the same date and time. Here are extra details about my setup. Server: hostname - puppetmaster domainname - does not have a domain fqdn - puppetmaster Client: hostname - puppetclient domainname - localdomain fqdn - puppetclient.localdomain I have puppetclient and its ip address in the master's /etc/hosts file. I also have puppetmaster and its ip address in the client's /etc/ hosts file. I use "puppetd --debug --server puppetmaster" on the client to connect to the server. The first time it connects, it requests a certificate from the server. I then use puppetca to sign the certificate on the master. I get the error after doing that step. I'm completely clueless. I've tried all sorts of permutations and cannot get it to work. I guess somewhere, my certificates are getting screwed up or could it also be because my server does not have a domain name? But that is one of the requirements. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

[Puppet Users] Trying to run puppet from a tarball
I'm trying to run puppet using the tarball and so far, I've been unsuccessful. The system I'm trying to run puppet on is running RHEL 5.3. Now first of all, this system does not have access to internet. Therefore I don't have any access to any of the repositories from which I can download the rpms and its dependencies. So instead, I got the puppet, facter, ruby and openssl tarballs. I've installed them all individually. Now when I try to run puppetd, I get the following error: err: Could not create resources for managing Puppet's files and directories in sections [:main, :agent, :ssl]: Could not autoload file: no such file to load -- zlib Could not prepare for execution: Could not autoload rest: no such file to load - zlib I get same errors for puppetmasterd too.

Hmmm...I've made some progress. There seemed to be some problems with Ruby 1.9.1. So I reverted back to Ruby 1.8.7 and followed the steps again as outlined in http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Puppet_Windows. Installed an additional gem called win32-security. This allowed the puppet daemon to actually run!! I do get a bunch of messages saying "No such file or directory -uname - s". But the daemon actually runs and tries to create a new SSL key. But it fails with the following error messages. err: Could not request certificate: Could not write C:/puppet/conf/ssl/ private_keys/testing.pem to privatekeydir: Could not find a default provider for user Exiting: failed to retrieve certificate and waitforcert is disabled.

[Puppet Users] Duplicating web servers
Hi all. I'm a puppet noob and I've been tinkering with it for the past couple of weeks. What I would like to do now is duplicate a web server. So I have a web server running. I would like to make puppet to duplicate this web server on another machine. This includes installing the same packages, have the same directory structure, have the same repository, etc., on the new server. I'm really not sure how to proceed with this. Any starting tips would be greatly appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

[Puppet Users] Re: Getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
Got this fixed with Patrick's help. I had to add puppet as an alias in the /etc/hosts file.

Yup. I get the following when I say ping puppet ping: unknown host puppet So I haven't defined puppet as a hostname somewhere or something?

[Puppet Users] Re: Undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass
Thanks guys! I upgraded puppet from 0.25.4 to 2.6.1. Now when I try to run puppetd on the same machine as puppemasterd, I get the following error message: err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I'm not really sure what that means. Is it problem with my hostname or dns or something? Any help would be appreciated! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

[Puppet Users] Getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
Hi. I'm using puppet 2.6.1 on ubuntu lucid. I'm running puppetd and puppetmasterd on the same machine.

[Puppet Users] Undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass
Hi all I started researching on puppet and decided I'll try it out on Vmware Workstation using Ubuntu 10.04. So I'm trying to do the simplest puppet install pattern as outlined in http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Simplest_Puppet_Install_Pattern. For now, I'm trying to test puppetd and puppetmasterd on the same machine. I start puppetmaster and everything works fine. Then I start puppetd and I end up with following error: err: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'eval_generate': undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass err: /File[/var/lib/puppet/lib]: Failed to retrieve current state of resource: undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass Could not retrieve file metadata for puppet://puppet/plugins: undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: undefined method 'closed?' for nil:NilClass err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I've been trying to figure this out over last couple of days but I'm completely stumped. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
