It maybe because of a long environment timeout: https://puppet.com/docs/puppet/5.5/environments_creating.html#task-3930 In PE this is set to unlimited by default when using code management. The code manager will then manually evict the cache after a code deployment to ensure that new code is

Re: [Puppet Users] Re: Older Ciphers? Weak Cipher Suites?

We needed to upgrade Jetty but they changed their defaults and started warning about weak ciphers. To avoid breaking folks we added back the ciphers that had been allowed at the start of the 6.x series but that causes a lot of warnings. If you don't have connections that rely on the older ciphers

Re: [Puppet Users] init config once

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppetserver ca migrate

Hi! If you've mounted external volumes for your cadir like: --mount source=ca-volume,destination=/etc/puppetlabs/puppet/ssl/ca You should instead mount the destination as /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/ca If you have a Dockerfile that pre-populates your cadir you'll need to update your script
