Hello Puppet list,
I am taking over the puppet configuration of a sysadmin who left, and
am having troubles deploying puppet to a new node. We are using puppet
v2.7.3 both on the client and the puppetmaster, on Ubuntu 10.10.
The node asks for a certificate fine, and I signed it on the
puppetmaster.
For the following logs extract I ve replaced the FQDN of my node by
puppet.example.com.
When doing a puppet run I am getting the following error:
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER: Failed to parse template linux/dput.cf.erb: Could not find
value for ''lsbdistid'' at
2:/etc/puppet/modules/linux/templates/
dput.cf.erb at /etc/puppet/modules/linux/manifests/dput.pp:7 on node
puppetnode.example.com
The line in dput.cf.erb is this one:
# packages for <%= lsbdistid %> to a private repository (not the
official
So I guess there is a problem passing the $lsbdistid variable.
Before I had another related error, it was complaining here:
content => template($operatingsystem ? {
Debian => "root/profile-linux.erb",
Ubuntu => "root/profile-linux.erb",
OpenBSD => "root/profile-openbsd.erb",
default => "root/profile.erb" }),
That root/profile.erb didn´ t exist. It is true it didn´ t exist, but
being an Ubuntu node, it should ave picked the root/profile-linux.erb
one, so I guess the $operatingsystem variable is not being passed
correctly.
On the puppetmaster I can see this:
Oct 18 14:49:41 p41 puppet-master[6001]: Host is missing hostname and/
or domain: puppetnode.example.com
So I guess it is complaining because the puppet node is not passing
the appropriate facts...
However on the puppet node:
root@plista47 /etc/puppet # sudo facter -p | egrep "(operatingsystem|
lsbdistid|hostname|domain)"
domain => example.com
hostname => puppetnode
lsbdistid => Ubuntu
operatingsystem => Ubuntu
operatingsystemrelease => 10.10
There is no file for that node in /var/lib/puppet/yaml/facts/ .
"Puppetnode.example.com" resolves both on the server and the client,
as well as "puppetnode", to the external IP address of the puppet
node.
My best guess is that for some reason, the client fails to send its
facts to the master, and the master fails to compile because of this.
I am out of ideas as to why this is happening though...
Hope someone here will be more inspired!
Thanks

Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet node fails to pass facts to master
Make sure you have all the lsb packages installed. That''s usually what causes LSB facts not to resolve.

What version of facter are you using?
