Hi, Actually, I have built custom RPMs of Puppet & Facter tailored to meet the requirements of my environment. So, when I install these RPMs, the binaries go into "/usr/sbin" including "puppetca" And Pupept & Foreman are started by root. Initially, I too thought that foreman was not able to find the "puppetca" binary, but then I wasn't sure.
I couldn't find much info anywhere, so thought of taking look at the code. *def setBuild host = Host.find params[:id] if host.setBuild != false (if I set this to true, I get the right message in the web UI but, obviously that doesn't solve the problem) flash[:foreman_notice] = "Enabled #{host.name} for installation boot away" else flash[:foreman_error] = "Failed to enable #{host.name} for installation" end redirect_to :back end* So, the conditions are not being met to enable the host for installation. *PS: THIS IS A TEST SETUP, SO, I CAN TRY OUT DIFFERENT THINGS, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SUGGEST FIXES. :)* Thanks, On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 11:37 PM, Ohad Levy <ohadl...@gmail.com> wrote: > hmm.. another option, do you use a non-standard directory for puppet > binaries ? > > Ohad > > > On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 4:21 PM, Ohad Levy <ohadl...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Foreman needs to be able to execute puppetca, see >> http://theforeman.org/repositories/entry/foreman/extras/puppet/foreman/manifests/puppetca.pp >> >> cheers, >> Ohad >> >> On Thu, Feb 18, 2010 at 9:21 AM, LOhit <lohi...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >>> Hello, >>> >>> I ran into this problem today, I am trying to implement "One click >>> installation", I followed foreman howtos and set up the pre-requisites >>> accordingly. >>> >>> However, when I click on "Build" button, I get the following errors in >>> the foreman's console and another error in the web interface indicating that >>> the installation failed.
