The initscript in and of itself is working, as an agent is started.

This is weird. Otherwise, my guess would have been that you have an
orphaned lock lying around. We've seen this in different situations.
Try "puppet agent --enable" and watch the logs - the agent may now work
correctly.

Inspect /var/lib/puppet/ and try to find out what's keeping your agent
from performing its run.

HTH,

[Puppet Users] puppet with init.d script fails to update

2011-02-08 Thread Liberty Young
All,

In my test bed, i've noticed that the init.d script as present in the
git source (puppet-2.6.4/conf/redhat) doesn't seem to work. Puppet
fails to periodically update its configuration cached, reporting in
var/log/message
"puppet-agent[7621]: Run of Puppet configuration client already in
progress; skipping"
This is happens every 30 minutes (the default for run-time interval).
This also happens when I invoke the script with a start command.

when i send a SIGUSR1 to the running daemon, it also fails with the
above. When I start the puppet client by hand, it successfully updates
its self.

Where should I be looking next on how to resolve this issue?
