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. I'm guess its gotta do something with path? Anyone got any ideas? On Oct 28, 6:41 am, Sandor Szuecs <sandor.szu...@fu-berlin.de> wrote: > On Oct 26, 2010, at 8:51 PM, Kikanny wrote: > > > Hi.
