Puppet users - May 2009 - new puppet server using passenger and having issues

Hello

I am working on migrating from a working mongrel based puppet server to a
passenger based puppet server and I need some help. I am still getting some
errors that I can''t explain and I hope someone knows what I am doing
wrong.

I have installed the following to setup passenger

gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

fastthread (1.0.5)
    Optimized replacement for thread.rb primitives
passenger (2.1.2)
    Apache module for Ruby on Rails support.
rake (0.8.1)
    Ruby based make-like utility.

I am using the following puppet rpms with 64bit RHEL5.2

 rpm -qa | grep puppet
puppet-0.24.6-1.el5
puppet-server-0.24.6-1.el5

This is my puppet.conf

[main]
    vardir = /var/lib/puppet

    logdir = /var/log/puppet

    rundir = /var/run/puppet

    ssldir = $vardir/ssl

    factpath = /opt/puppet/facter

    modulepath = /opt/puppet/modules

    server = xxxxx-dev-puppet.xxx.com
    certname = xxxxx-dev-puppet.xxx.com

    pluginsync = true
    factsync = true

[puppetmasterd]
        certname = xxxxx-dev-puppet.xxx.com
        reports = log,store

I followed the install directions on the wiki and ran puppetmaster before I
started passenger up and I also did some testing to make sure puppetmaster
works with this config.

When I do startup passenget and run the first instance of puppetd I get the
following

May  4 22:50:41 atl01osd101 puppetd[30102]: Finished catalog run in 0.03
seconds

Notice that even with the errors the catalog still runs and the default
class executes. Any idea what is generating these errors? I dont understand
where some of the paths are coming from since these paths are not in my
puppet.conf. What  is overriding the variables I have already set?

Thanks in advance for any ideas.
