I inherited a puppet install from a former sys admin at my organization and this is my first time working with it. I'm on 0.25.5 and would like to upgrade eventually but I'm afraid to do that at the moment so I'm looking for suggestions other than "Upgrade".
I need to add a new server to the configuration. This is on RHEL 5 and I installed through yum. I copied $vardir from another server in the fleet and wiped out the machine-specific ssl certs. From the look of things, I was able to successfully generate and sign a new ssl cert for the machine. When I start the service, though, I get the error: "Could not create resources for managing Puppet's files and directories in sections [:main, :puppetd, :ssl]: Could not find a default provider for file". I've googled for this error for days and haven't found anything useful. There are a few bug reports but most of them are for other OSs or aren't applicable. I'm not sure what this error is referring to at all. Some people suggest that it has something to do with the ruby configuration but I don't know much about ruby either. If someone could help with this, I would greatly appreciate it. I need to get this server up and running soon. Let me know if I haven't provided enough info.
