Getting some strange behavior when I try and start the puppetmaster.
I keep my configs in a subversion repository so naturally there
are .svn directories within the puppet config directory.
Not sure why but one of my puppetmaster instances refuses to start
until I remove one specific .svn directory.

No puppet process running.
[r...@puppethc01 files]# ps -ef | grep puppet
root     16417 13135  0 15:09 pts/0    00:00:00 grep puppet

[r...@puppethc01 files]#  puppetmasterd --verbose --no-daemonize
notice: Starting Puppet server version 0.25.4
Could not run: Could not create PID file: /var/run/puppet/
puppetmasterd.pid

Yup there's a PID file
[r...@puppethc01 files]# ls -alrt /var/run/puppet/puppetmasterd.pid
-rw-r--r-- 1 puppet puppet 0 Apr 15 15:10 /var/run/puppet/
puppetmasterd.pid

Still no process though.
[r...@puppethc01 files]# ps -ef | grep puppet
root     16464 13135  0 15:10 pts/0    00:00:00 grep puppet

Better remove the PID file
[r...@puppethc01 files]# rm -f /var/run/puppet/puppetmasterd.pid

And if I remove the .svn directory.....
[r...@puppethc01 files]# rm  -rf .svn

Everything is fine.
[r...@puppethc01 files]#  puppetmasterd --verbose --no-daemonize
notice: Starting Puppet server version 0.25.4
notice: Caught INT; calling stop
