Thank. I am pasting the entire message here: Mar 30 14:01:04 puppetclient1 puppet-agent[28571]: Could not request certificate: Error 500 on SERVER: <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd";> <html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"> <meta name="generator" content="Phusion Passenger"> <title>Ruby (Rack) application could not be started</ title> <style type="text/css"> body { font- family: Verdana, 'Bitstream Vera Sans', Arial, Sans-Serif; font-size: 10pt; background: white; color: #222222; margin: 0; padding-top: 3em; padding- bottom: 3em; padding-left: 4.5em; padding-right: 4.5em; } h1 { font-size: 17pt; font-weight: medium; color: #533e72; border-bottom: 1px solid #533e72; } h1.title { margin-top: 0; } h1.error_title { color: red; border-bottom: 1px solid red; } a { text-decoration: none; } a:hover { text-decoration: underline; } dt { font-weight: bold; color: #280050; } dd { margin-top: 0.5em; margin-bottom: 1em; } .commands { border: 1px
Somehow I am able to get the certificate for the client. Since above error message says "Ruby (Rack) application could not be started", I did #rackup /usr/share/puppet/rack/puppetmasterd/config.ru Then I see the rack process on puppet server #ps -ef|grep rack puppet 27140 1 0 14:21 ? 00:00:00 Rack: /usr/share/ puppet/rack/puppetmasterd >From then on the server is able to receive the client certificate request and sign it. Do I have to start the rack manually in a manner like that? I thought if I start httpd service, it would start rack automatically. I am still not sure if I did everything right.
