[foreman-users] Re: Updating puppet from 3.8.7 to 4.8.1 with Foreman 1.12.4 on EL6.8.
After Updating puppet server from 3.8.7 to 4.10 on Foreman 1.15.1. I am getting the same error messages as you did on client machines, 'Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER...' I followed http://projects.theforeman.org/projects/foreman/wiki/Upgrading_from_Puppet_3_to_4 My puppet.conf has vardir = /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache And I copied /var/lib/puppet/foreman_cache_data to /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/cache/foreman_cache_data You said, 'I fixed this by setting the correct puppet cache directory for foreman'. Can you please let me know what exactly you did? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Foreman users" group.

I fixed this by setting the correct puppet cache directory for foreman. Now
I'm on to another issue, where I cannot import puppet classes because of:
ERF12-4115 406 Not Acceptable ... We've tried changing the auth.conf rules
to no effect - that shows me a wiki page that has me check
/var/log/foreman-proxy/proxy.log
which shows:
ERROR -- : Failed to show puppet classes: 403 {"message":"Not Authorized:
Forbidden request: /puppet/v3/resource_type/*
[search]","issue_kind":"RUNTIME_ERROR"}
The fix for this ended up being disabling the legacy auth.conf and just
using the new format with the suggested foreman settings from their guide.
V3 agents check in successfully.
Final take away - I think that anyone else trying this after us should
mostly follow the foreman wiki and ignore a lot of the server / master
stuff from puppet directly. Of course you do need to refer to puppet
guidelines for fixing the manifests. Future parser did not find a lot of
issues for us so we ended up fixing them after the upgrade - carefully
working through the puppet guidelines and not assuming the agents will
error would also help.
