Puppet users - Apr 2011 - Passenger complains /etc/puppet/ssl doesn't exist.

All,

I just tried to get Passenger up and running, based on on the docs at:
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/Using_Passenger

I am seeing this in my Apache error_log whenever a client tries to connect:
Could not prepare for execution: Got 2 failure(s) while initializing: change
from absent to directory failed: Could not set ''directory on ensure:
Permission denied - /etc/puppet/ssl; change from absent to directory failed:
Could not set ''directory on ensure: Permission denied -
/etc/puppet/manifests

However, I have no references to my ssl dir being /etc/puppet/ssl. In fact,
I have it explicitly set in [main] (and [puppetmaster] AND [agent] because
the documentation is not clear on this), to /var/lib/puppet.ssl. Why is
passenger trying to use /etc/puppet/ssl?

My problem is identical to this...

Actually... this may be the cause... my puppet.conf is in a non standard
location, and when running puppetmaster, I''m setting
--confdir=/etc/puppet/common in /etc/init.d/puppetserver. How can I set this
for passenger?

put this in your config.ru:

ARGV << "--confdir=/etc/puppet/common"
