Issue #11668 has been reported by Jo Rhett. ---------------------------------------- Bug #11668: Documentation bugs at http://docs.puppetlabs.com/dashboard/manual/1.2/bootstrapping.html https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11668
Author: Jo Rhett Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: There are some very serious flaws in the bootstrapping documentation. Easy one: <pre>Once Passenger is enabled, copy Dashboard’s example vhost from ext/dashboard-vhost.conf (snip)</pre> This should actually refer to <pre>ext/passenger/dashboard-vhost.conf</pre> Harder one: Near the top of the documentation it says that you can use the Dashboard's ENC. No information is provided as to whether you have to do this, or what the value is. I assumed it meant I needed an ENC of one type or another and enabled this. Which immediately caused clients to fail like so: <pre> err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Could not find node 'nodename'; cannot compile warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run </pre> Note: it seems to work after you're done setting up dashboard and the nodes are known, but the placement in the documentation lists it as a setup step. It would appear to be a post-install step rather. And I question that it's a good idea there, as what about a brand new node? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
