New setup, Puppet 3.1.0 and Passenger on a RHEL 5 server.
I wanted to move $confdir from /etc/puppet to follow local practices
about where to install stuff.
Anyway, I made the necessary change in
/usr/share/puppet/rack/puppetmasterd/config.ru and set confdir in the
[main] part of puppet.conf, then I ran puppet master --no-daemonize
(without Passenger) to generate its SSL certificates and such,
explicitly specifying confdir on the command line.
Once I modified my Apache config to properly point at all the ssl files,
apache and passenger fired right up.
Now the bugaboo: puppet agent does not run unless I give it the proper
confdir on the command line !
I tried adding it to /etc/sysconfig/puppet as without success.
The workaround I have in place is to symlink my confdir to /etc/puppet
Or symlink $confdir/puppet.conf to /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
Is there a better way to do this ?
I'm not clear on how you've structured things so far, but I would run
the master and agent with entirely separate dir structures. Makes it
simpler to manage the agents the same way regardless of what machine it
resides upon.
I'd revert /etc/puppet/puppet.conf to an agent config and remove any
sort of [master] stanza.
I'd create /usr/share/rack/puppermaster.conf and point your config.ru at
it like so. Make sure you remove any configdir or var statements that
would conflict with the settings you'll put in puppetmaster.conf
ARGV << "--rack"
ARGV << "--config=/usr/share/rack/puppermaster.conf"
require 'puppet/application/master'
my puppetmaster.conf looks roughly like this.
[main]
confdir=/var/puppet/etc
logdir=/var/puppet/logs
vardir=/var/puppet/var
ssldir=$vardir/ssl
rundir=/var/puppet/run
Assuming your paths are correct and everything is chown'ed properly it
should just work.
