Puppet users - Aug 2011 - puppet-dashboard doesn't connect to inventory service

hello, I am using puppet-dashboard 1.1 with puppet 2.7.3

I have followed the instructions in the dashboard manual
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/dashboard/manual/1.2/configuring.html
http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/inventory_service.html

I can query the inventory service successfully using curl but puppet
dashboard doesn''t show any of my nodes. I am running puppet on
passenger and
see no

Any ideas?

Here is the output I see in puppet-dashboard''s webrick session. As far
as I
can tell, dashboard isn''t querying the inventory service at all.
Perhaps my
version of dashboard is too old
