--debug"

Puppet is telling you that it cannot match the client to any node it knows 
about, and you have not declared default node configuration for it to fall 
back on.  Consult the Puppet language docs for full details 
(http://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/3/reference/lang_node_definitions.html), 
but the quickest, simplest (but most temporary) solution is to add this to 
your site.pp:

node default {
}

Note that although that should silence the error message, it does not 
declare any classes or resources to apply to your nodes.  Do digest the 
node (and other) documentation to understand how to go on from there.

Hi John,

Thank you for your response.

But why should I create site.pp in agent node(Windows). As my 
understanding, site.pp should be in puppet master server it self and it 
will execute the catalog in agent node.

Can you give me clarification on this If my understanding is wrong?.
Same scenario working in linux(puppet master) to linux(puppet agent). There 
I didnt create any site.pp in agent node.


With Regards, 
Krishna Bhaskar.

Your understanding (of Puppet) is correct, the site.pp should reside
on the puppet master.

I can''t see where John suggested you create a site.pp on the agent
though.

What does your site.pp on the puppet master look like?

Regards,

Matt.

Hi Matt,

While executing the command "*puppet agent --server test.puppetmaster.com 
--debug*" in puppet agent on Windows I am getting mentioned exception. 
As per my understanding, While executing said command, agent will send a 
request to pupet master for certificate sign off, it''s not happening.
That
is the issue I am facing.

With Regards,
Krishna Bhaskar.

I generally dislike specifying the server on the command line.  What
does the following command give you, when run on the agent?

puppet agent --test

Do you have a ''server ='' line in your agent''s
puppet.conf file? This
isn''t strictly necessary if ''agent.your-domain.com''
can successfully
resolve a DNS query for ''puppet''.  As you''re on
Windows, running
''nslookup puppet'' is enough to test this.  Or, confirm that
your hosts
file contains a suitable entry for ''puppet''.

Regards,

Matt.

Hi Matt,

I have configured hostname of the master in hosts file as below in windows 
agent.
             10.248.113.198           test.master.internal     puppetmaster
and added an entry "server=test.master.internal" in agent in windows 
puppet.conf.

If I execute command *puppet agent --test,* I am getting same error like 
below

*Info: Retrieving plugin*
*Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Could*
* not find default node or by name with
''testagentoneinternal.ec2.internal,
te*
*stagentoneinternal.ec2, testagentoneinternal'' on node
testagentoneinter*
*nal.ec2.internal*
*Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog*
*Error: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run*
*
*
I am not getting any solution to resolve it.

With Regards,
Krishna Bhaskar.

So, what''s in your /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp on the master then?

At the minimum, it should have:

node default {
}

Thanks,

Matt.

Ha, I thought you''d mentioned it before, but gmail''s stupid
interface
(I always blame my tools!) meant I skimmed straight past it when I was
double-checking) :-)

Hi John,

I have nodes.pp as 
node basenode {
}
node ''test.master.com'' inherits basenode {  }

site.pp as 
import ''nodes''
node ''test.agent.com'' {
}

Have you just obfuscated those due to posting on a mailing list?  Your
original error message stated that a node definition for
testagentoneinternal.ec2.internal couldn''t be found, and neither could
a default node definition.

As you''re using nodes.pp and site.pp, your nodes.pp needs:

node default {
}

it could also have (either in addition, or instead of the above
default node definition):

node ''testagentoneinternal.ec2.internal'' {
}

And your site.pp just needs the ''import "nodes"''
line that it looks
like it does already; to avoid confusion, I''d remove the explicit node
definition from site.pp.

Regards,

Matt.
