Hi Everyone, I have a weird issue where the puppet client running under launchd generates a new certificate request for 'localhost' which I thought was pretty odd (with the side effect of it failing to run and report). Running puppetd manually never generates this behavior.
Details: Client: puppetd version: 2.6.7 OS X version: 10.6.8 Contents of the hosts file: ## # Host Database # # localhost is used to configure the loopback interface # when the system is booting. Do not change this entry. ## 127.0.0.1 localhost 255.255.255.255 broadcasthost ::1 localhost fe80::1%lo0 localhost Puppet appears to be running correctly (at least it jives with the launchd instructions): root 52 0.3 1.0 2480284 43212 ?? Ss 1:37PM 0:46.66 /usr/bin/ruby /usr/sbin/puppetd --verbose --no-daemonize --logdest console Notes: Added to launchd using the details here: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/puppet/wiki/Puppet_With_Launchd The output of the hostname using the 'hostname' command is correct. Possibly relevant: Client does not have a DNS entry that matches its hostname (our desktop environment is not allowed to use dynamic DNS so it uses a mangled system where DNS updates are taken care of by the DHCP process after it gets the hostname from the client when it requests a DHCP lease (and it can take several hours to update). I don't know why, I hate it, it's not going to change and sometimes it results in a mismatched DNS entry and hostname) Console output (redundant logs removed): 8/21/11 1:38:03 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] [0;32minfo: Creating a new SSL key for localhost [0m 8/21/11 1:38:04 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session 8/21/11 1:38:04 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] [0;32minfo: Creating a new SSL certificate request for localhost [0m 8/21/11 1:38:04 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] [0;32minfo: Certificate Request fingerprint (md5): <redacted> [0m 8/21/11 1:38:04 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session 8/21/11 1:40:05 PM com.reductivelabs.puppet[52] [0;36mnotice: Did not receive certificate [0m Puppet Master: puppetmasterd version: 2.7.1 puppetca output: user@puppetmasterserver:~$ sudo puppetca --list localhost Thanks for any insight you may have. This one has me kind of stumped. Thanks, Khoury -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
