I have similar symptoms with a PE 3.7 agent running on RHEL5, 32-bit and PE
3.7 running on RHEL6, 64-bit. My specific problems can be found in the
Report Log:
err Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run Puppet
2014-11-22 12:42 UTC err Could not retrieve catalog from remote server:
Error 400 on SERVER: Attempt to assign to a reserved variable name:
'trusted' on node myagent.mydomain.com Puppet
2014-11-22 12:42 UTC
In my case, the problem seems to be related to a conflict with the server
name and perhaps the certificates. However, the agent on the RHEL5 box
already checked-in as an accepted node (fingerprint defined when the master
accepted the node request). Therefore I am stumped as to why there seems
to be a naming conflict.
