One of our guys did something similar a couple weeks ago and we didn’t have a backup. It sounds like ours was a little different in that the server was running fine, remote agents could connect, process, etc, but the puppet master’s agent refused to run.
Ours is a mono deployment on a single VM so I could take a snapshot and play around with it. In the end I did an upgrade to the latest 2018 ( it was 2017.x ) and everything came up working. I’m not sure if that will help you but it solved our problem. > On Jul 2, 2018, at 7:35 AM, Bret Wortman <b...@thewortmans.org> wrote: > > I accidentally ran puppet agent on our puppet master and now puppet server > won't start up any more.
