What I can't figure out is if puppet is in MySQL in a database called puppet and the dashboard created the database called dashboard, the dashboard is empty and doesn't have a clue about what's installed/available. Perhaps this is just because the 'agent' must report and to that end, I have configured the system running puppetmaster ... # cat /etc/puppet/puppet.conf [main] # Basic config: logdir=/var/log/puppet vardir=/var/lib/puppet ssldir=/etc/puppet/ssl rundir=/var/run/puppet factpath=$vardir/lib/facter pluginsync=false templatedir=$confdir/templates #Puppetmaster-config: [master] storeconfigs = true # MySQL-configuration: dbadapter = mysql dbuser = puppet dbpassword = XXXXXX dbserver = localhost dbsocket = /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock # SSL-config: ssl_client_header = SSL_CLIENT_S_DN ssl_client_verify_header = SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY # Reports to puppet-dashboard for each run: reports = http, store reporturl = http://puppet.ttinet:8000/reports/upload [agent] report = true but even when I update my 'client' system, dashboard is still empty. I think I am missing something really basic. Is the Dashboard not capable of reading files from /etc/puppet/ tree? Does it only get data from 'agent' reports? Did I miss something in my setup to get the 'agents' to report to Dashboard? Craig -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
