[Puppet Users] New user learning puppet and getting error> getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
Hello everyone, I''m a new user regarding puppet but I''m skilled with linux. I have setup a puppetmaster server and also have a puppet client for testing on a different box. /etc/sysconfig/puppet has been edited to reach puppetmaster with option PUPPET_SERVER=puppet.mydomain.cr (I''m in Costa Rica) On the puppetmaster I was able to see the client with puppetca --list. I was also able to sign the certificate with puppetca --sign schoolserver.flexi.mydomain.cr That''s as much as I have done. However, looking at the log files on the client I noticed some error. When I run on the client puppet agent --test I get the following lines> err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: getaddrinfo: Name or service not known warning: Not using cache on failed catalog err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run I googled the *getaddrinfo: Name or service not known* error, however, I cant seem to get a proper answer to my error. I was hoping that this community might be able to help me on this. Any suggestions?

Hi Juan, I believe your puppet.conf file should contain the line: [main] server = puppet.mydomain.cr and not "PUPPET_SERVER". At least, that is how my clients determine which server to connect to. This error usually is a failure of the client to find the puppetmaster. Can you ping the puppet master from the client? -jason On Tuesday, January 22, 2013 9:40:53 AM UTC-8, Juan Cubillo wrote:> > Hello everyone, > > I''m a new user regarding puppet but I''m skilled with linux.

[Puppet Users] Re: New user learning puppet and getting error> getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
I just made a slight change that also changed the error... According to
google the* getaddrinfo: Name or service not known *means that the client
can not find the server. I decided to specify the server uusing the command>
puppet agent --server=puppet.mydomain.cr --test
And now this is returned:
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 414 on SERVER:

warning: Not using cache on failed catalog
err: Could not retrieve catalog; skipping run
What may be causing this? The server is already specified on the
/etc/sysconfig/puppet file on the client and is also the reason why the
client was able to get it''s certificate request!
Anyone knows what may be going on? And now... what is the 414 error?

I made my initial config on the file /etc/sysconfig/puppet because the guide I used said so. However, I was reading some more and it seems the correct file to edit should be /etc/puppet/puppet.conf I''m going to edit the file and report what happens. - Juan On Tuesday, 22 January 2013 15:21:36 UTC-6, Jason Cochard wrote:> > Hi Juan, > > I believe your puppet.conf file should contain the line: > > [main] > server = puppet.mydomain.cr > > and not "PUPPET_SERVER".

[Puppet Users] Re: New user learning puppet and getting error> getaddrinfo: Name or service not known
FIXED!
Returned default values to /etc/sysconfig/puppet and added *server =
fqt.mydomain.cr* to the [main] block on /etc/puppet/puppet.conf
This fixed the *getaddrinfo: Name or service not known* erro but now added
the following:
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 414 on SERVER:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0//EN">

</BODY>
</HTML>
According to google this is a bug on the 2.6 version. This was fixed by
editing the file */usr/share/ruby/webrick/httprequest.rb* and changing the
variable *MAX_URI_LENGTH = 2083* for a value of *4096*
*

Thanks for the help! :)

Excellent. Glad you were able to fix it. May I next suggest moving your puppet deployment to Passenger and Apache? :) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

I''m still learning about puppet. I''ll try to read some more about Passenger. If you have any good links with info I''ll aprreciate if you may guide me on my "quest" to learn about this system. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Here is a good start: http://projects.puppetlabs.com/projects/1/wiki/using_passenger Also the book, Pro Puppet, covers this in detail. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
