Hello all, I am trying to write a script that will check logs for puppet errors to use in a nagios check. I am checking /var/log/messages (RHEL6) but when puppet runs on its 30 minute interval, nothing gets written to messages. I have also looked at /var/log/puppet/puppet.log but that does not seem to be consistent either: [root@gm10v nagios]# tail /var/log/puppet/puppet.log Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_cms_system Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in lampp_ssl_sn2 Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in vips_vip1_ip Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in gs_batch_itcl_mfb Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_ntp Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in gs_batch_getrates_lbma Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_clusterworker Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in cl_lvs_ssl1 Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_feedlistener Wed May 02 14:27:47 [root@gm10v nagios]# It does not seem to finish logging. /var/lib/puppet/state/state.yaml is not much better.

You should try
debug = true
verbose = true
in your agent and/or master configurations. Some more hints on monitoring and on
Nagios/Icinga checks are found here:

Betreff: [Puppet Users] Puppet logging
Hello all,
I am trying to write a script that will check logs for puppet errors to use in a
nagios check. I am checking /var/log/messages (RHEL6) but when puppet runs on
its 30 minute interval, nothing gets written to messages. I have also looked at
/var/log/puppet/puppet.log but that does not seem to be consistent either:
[root@gm10v nagios]# tail /var/log/puppet/puppet.log
Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_cms_system

Wed May 02 14:27:47 +0000 2012 Puppet (info): Loading facts in is_feedlistener
Wed May 02 14:27:47 [root@gm10v nagios]#
It does not seem to finish logging.
/var/lib/puppet/state/state.yaml is not much better.
Where can I search for errors?
Thanks,

ssldir = /etc/puppet/ssl
runinetrval = 600
pluginsync=true
[agent]
classfile = /classes.txt
localconfig = /localconfig
report = true
reports = log
server = puppet.example.com
debug = true
verbose = true
logdest = /var/log/puppet/puppet.log

I think this line logdest = /var/log/puppet/puppet.log is the same as starting the daemon with --logdest I believe you are logging to /var/log/puppet/puppet.log Remove that line and I think it will log to syslog On Sat, May 5, 2012 at 8:04 AM, John Kennedy <skebi69@gmail.com> wrote:> Here it is in almost all it''s glory (comments removed and server domain > changed...): > > [main] > logdir = /var/log/puppet > > rundir = /var/run/puppet > > ssldir = /etc/puppet/ssl > > runinetrval = 600 > pluginsync=true > > [agent] > classfile = /classes.txt > > localconfig = /localconfig > > report = true > reports = log > server = puppet.example.com > > debug = true > verbose = true > logdest = /var/log/puppet/puppet.log > > Thanks, > John > > John Kennedy > > > > > On Fri, May 4, 2012 at 11:00 PM, Michael Baydoun <indymichaelb@gmail.com>wrote: > >> Can you post your full puppet.conf?
