    text
    copied!<p>I have a problem in running puppet agent in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.4 and SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 11. In both cases, when I ran "puppet agent --test --verbose", I could see no error and the configuration was applied. However, when I ran "service puppet restart", while the result said that the service was stopped and started okay, the configuration was not applied. That is the problem.</p> <p>For Red Hat, I could not be able to find the log file at "/var/log/puppet" (the directory was empty). However, for SUSE, I found the log file at "/var/log/puppet/puppet.log" and it recorded a couple of errors: "Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run. Could not send report: getaddrinfo: Name or service not know". It is weird because once the "puppet agent --test" could be executed successfully, it implied that the server's address could be resolved !!!</p> <p>Do you have any idea of how this problem happened and how to fix it.</p> <p>Thanks, Henry</p> <p>P/S: below is the content of puppet.conf and site.pp at the server and puppet.conf at the client</p> <pre><code>#puppet.conf at the server [main] logdir=/var/log/puppet vardir=/var/lib/puppet ssldir=/var/lib/puppet/ssl rundir=/var/run/puppet factpath=$vardir/lib/facter templatedir=$confdir/templates prerun_command=/etc/puppet/etckeeper-commit-pre postrun_command=/etc/puppet/etckeeper-commit-post [master] ssl_client_header = SSL_CLIENT_S_DN ssl_client_verify_header = SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY dns_alt_names = puppet, server_name #site.pp at the server node default{ } node 'client_name' { include 'client_config' } #puppet.conf at the client [main] logdir = /var/log/puppet rundir = /var/run/puppet ssldir = $vardir/ssl server = server_name certname = client_name report = true pluginsync = true [agent] classfile = $vardir/classes.txt localconfig = $vardir/localconfig </code></pre>
