Re: [Puppet Users] "The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key." The master and agent in this case are on the same machine.

Okay, thanks. I don't really see how messing up permissions on the master would cause such behavior. Generally, the error means that your agent has lost its private key, generated a new one, yet the master still retains a certificate it has signed for use with an older private (agent) key. To fi

Re: [Puppet Users] "The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key." The master and agent in this case are on the same machine.

Well my thinking was that since the certificate is stored in the home directory, messing with the home directory somehow changed the masters certificate, which is why none of the agent's keys match it. I really don't know though, I'm kinda new to puppet and linux. In any case, I can't clean the

Re: [Puppet Users] "The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key." The master and agent in this case are on the same machine.

What do you mean by "home directory"? To clean an agent's certificate, use puppet cert clean, but with with the agent's FQDN as its argument, not the master's FQDN. On 05/05/2014 04:35 PM, Dan Pasacrita wrote: > Well my thinking was that since the certificate is stored in the home > directory, me

Re: [Puppet Users] "The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key." The master and agent in this case are on the same machine.

By "home directory" I mean /home, where the directory /home/dpasacrita, and where (importantly) /home/dpasacrita/.puppet is. This is where the certificates are stored if I'm understanding this right, and this issue is apparently with the master's certificate. I cannot run any puppet cert clean

Re: [Puppet Users] "The certificate retrieved from the master does not match the agent's private key." The master and agent in this case are on the same machine.

Ah, so you're running the master from an unprivileged user. That makes a lot of sense now. And yes, this is most disturbing. Would it be feasible to renew all your certificates? Because the current state looks messed up beyond reason :-) Cheers, Felix On 05/05/2014 05:03 PM, Dan Pasacrita wrote

Re: [Puppet Users] puppet client server - couldnt able to verify certificate

I think there is some misunderstood here. First launch the agent, it will generate a certificate for it. Then you should sign it in the master. It seems that you did generate one in the master and sign it, and expected to be received by the client, but the certificate should be generated in the

Re: [Puppet Users] "puppet apply --noop -e" and overiding facter values for testing

The problem is that your variable names are being returned from the $(cat...) after bash has already evaluated the environment, so it's taking it as a literal string and trying to execute the command. To get bash to interpret it as a variable, use 'eval': eval $(cat test_values | tr '\n' ' ' )
