Harshita, That error message sounds like your certificate problem is with PuppetDB, not the agent to the master.
the master is learn.localdomain.pem and the windows agent is the one with the utterly useless hostname (igtggn*)? Every node (master and agent alike) will always generate their own certificate when they start, if it isn't there yet. The fact that ca.pem is on the agent looks promising. But until you see the igtggn* cert show up on the *master* it doesn't mean they've authenticated. Is there any way to view the logs/output of the agent on windows? If this were a unix agent, I'd run it with --debug to figure out what's happening. If you're able to do that, posting the log output would give us a little more information to help you... -jantman On 12/20/2013 06:56 AM, Harshita Sinha wrote: > Hi All, > I again attempted to execute the command puppet agent --test --verbose > --server learn.localdomain,and I continue to get the same error :( > > Surprisingly, I found that the certificates are created both in > Windows agent and the Master . > The files created in master under the > folder /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/certs are (1) ca.pem and > (2) learn.localdomain.pem > The files created in Windows agent under the folder > path C:\ProgramData\PuppetLabs\puppet\etc\ssl\certs are (1) ca.pem and > (2) igtggn11002.interglobetechnologies.com.pem > > I assume they are certificates that are created after Master and agent > have had a hand shake . > > Can you please guide me, what is the next step I should do to resolve > the replace facts ?
