So, I'm thinking this is the issue I'm running into, but still not sure how to resolve it:
https://www.atcomputing.nl/blog/certificate-authority-and-puppet-6/ Need to run puppetserver ca import - before starting the puppetserver. However, it seems `--private-key` `--crl-chain` and `--cert-bundle` are mandatory. What should I use for what? ``` /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/certs/server-b.pem /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/certs/ca.pem /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/private_keys/server-b.pem /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/crl.pem ``` I've tried: ``` puppetserver ca import --config /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/puppet.conf --private-key /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/private_keys/server-b.pem --crl-chain /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/crl.pem --cert-bundle /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/certs/ca.pem ``` But, it gives me the error of: ``` Error: Could not find certificate matching private key ``` On Friday, 7 May 2021 at 10:09:50 am UTC+10 Aaron Nicoli wrote: > Cheers Warron, > > It was pretty obvious something on B is broken, but what who knows... > > I've just deleted everything related to B and C (A is prod, B and C are > new dev) [rm -rf /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl; rm -rf > /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/ca; puppetserver ca clean x]. > > After doing this, will both puppet and puppetserver services stopped on B, > I've ran puppet agent -t... > Then signed the request on server-A > > Everything working on B (as an agent)... > > Then again everything stopped and deleted on C (agent)... > puppet agent -t, signed on A... > > Can't connect to the puppetmaster (server-B), because I haven't started > the service, but other than that everything perfect. > > Start the puppetserver service on server-B... and then run puppet agent -t > on server-C again... > ``` > Error: Connection to https://server-B:8140/puppet/v3 failed, trying next > route: Request to https://server-B:8140/puppet/v3 failed after 0.103 > seconds: SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: sslv3 alert > certificate unknown > Wrapped exception: > SSL_connect returned=1 errno=0 state=error: sslv3 alert certificate unknown > ``` > > Pretty much back to where we started... > > Then I go back to server-B and run puppet agent -t... broken: > ``` > Error: The CRL issued by 'CN=Puppet CA: server-A' is missing > Error: Could not run: The CRL issued by 'CN=Puppet CA: server-A' is missing > ``` > > From what I can tell, the puppetserver service (upon startup on server-B) > is "blatting" the correct certs on server-B... > > That's the best conclusion I can come to at this point. > On Friday, 7 May 2021 at 9:50:24 am UTC+10 warron...@gmail.com wrote: > >> @Aaron, good evening from the east coast of the USA. >> >> It looks like the first break in the chain is on ServerB, if that was not >> also obvious to you.
