Chris, Try this on the server running the puppet agent to verify the puppet master the agent is configured to use Command: sudo puppet config print server --section agent If it is incorrect then follow these steps 1. Stop the puppet service Command Example: sudo puppet resource service puppet ensure=stopped 2. Remove (or rename) ssl cert directory Command Example: sudo mv /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl.orig 3. Clean any certs on the puppet master Command Example: sudo puppet cert clean agentHostName 4. Change name of puppet master on agent Command Exmaple: sudo puppet config set server puppetMaster --section agent 5. Verify desired puppet master is now configured Command: sudo puppet config print server --section agent 6. Perform a puppet run puppet agent -t 7. If that works, start up the puppet service Example Command: sudo puppet resource service puppet ensure=started 8. If you renamed in step 2 then remove the original directory HTH Billy- -----Original Message----- From: "Chris" <ch...@postbox.xyz> Sent: Saturday, July 25, 2015 2:25pm To: "Puppet Users" <puppet-users@googlegroups.com> Subject: [Puppet Users] Newbie: Agent doesn't find master
Dear All, sorry, I'm a newbie. My agent doesn't find the master. Where can I specify the master's name? It's working, when the master is called puppet, but not if it has another name ...
