I don't understand what I've done wrong - I am literally following the rule book here, but it seems to trip at every step.
I read the logs, and discovered that there were only three files it couldn't find because katello was stopped (this still amazes me - "stop katello, then make foreman-installer get data from katello"???!!?!?! who designed/wrote this?) the files were: java-1.8.0-something_something puppet-agent-1.9.0-something-something puppetserver-2.7.2-something_something So I found them on the file system and installed them successfully by hand. I then repeated the above process of katello-services stop and foreman-installer --upgrade-puppet Now I get a fail on: Upgrade Step: copy_data... mv: cannot move ‘/var/lib/puppet/ssl’ to ‘/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl’: File exists Upgrade step copy_data failed. Check logs for more information. So I moved those files out of the way....and tried again. Failed with the same message. Deleted the files, tried again - failed with the same message. Might I suggest that the puppet upgrade notes are not actually correct and that the foreman-installer --upgrade-puppet service needs a "--skip-broken" or "--skip-copy-data" Anyway - I guess my question now is do I even need to run the --upgrade-puppet?
