From http:\/\/www.nelsone.com<\/a><\/p>\n

I recently started playing around with Puppet to manage my current infrastructure of a plethora of linux flavors. After an evaluation using Puppet-Enterprise I was told to see what I could do with the Open Source version. As Puppet-Enterprise is pretty much a ‘no brainer’ install, the open-source version is a different animal.
\nI’ve had several attempts at installing the Open Source version of Puppet and getting it enterprise ready. Below are my notes on it’s installation:<\/p>\n

\n

First, I started with a clean install of CentOS 5.8. I disable selinux but not the firewall. Then did a ‘sudo yum update’ to bring it up to date.
\n
\nSince I am installing on a VM (off of the network) and puppet requires dns resolution for the puppet master, I’m installing Bind and system-config-bind. <\/p>\n

I opened the network configuration and edited the DNS settings and modified the hostname. <\/p>\n

Then modified the hosts to include aliases for puppet.domainname.com and dns.domainname.com. <\/p>\n

I added the latter because I am going to make a forwarding dns for this instance. <\/p>\n

Then I opened up the DNS and let it create the default bind configuration and added a zone for my domainname.com. <\/p>\n

I then added an A record for my host and a cname for puppet.domainname.com.<\/p>\n

I tested this by using nslookup and setting it to my local loopback address.<\/p>\n

I then opened the network configuration and set my primary dns server to 127.0.0.1.<\/p>\n

Next I added the EPEL repository
\nsudo rpm -ivh http:\/\/mirror.facebook.net\/fedora\/epel\/5\/x86_64\/epel-release-5-4.noarch.rpm<\/code>
\n <\/p>\n

And installed puppet:
\nsudo yum install puppet-server<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nEdited and added the following under [main] since this is going to be the server AND an agent to itself.
\nvim \/etc\/puppet\/puppet.conf<\/p>\n

added<\/p>\n

server = puppet.domainname.com
\nreport=true
\npluginsync=true
\ncertname=puppet.domainname.com
\n#dns_alt_names is comma separated list
\ndns_alt_names=puppet.domainname.com,puppet<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nAfter saving the file, I started the puppet master non daemonized so that I can see the output:
\nsudo puppet master --no-daemonize --verbose<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nThis was the output:
\ninfo: Creating a new SSL key for ca
\ninfo: Creating a new SSL certificate request for ca
\ninfo: Certificate Request fingerprint (md5): 4A:8B:BF:01:6A:BC:84:8C:EA:12:7D:A3:46:C8:32:9A

\nnotice: Removing file Puppet::SSL::CertificateRequest puppet.domainname.com at '\/var\/lib\/puppet\/ssl\/certificate_requests\/puppet.domainname.com.pem'
\nnotice: Starting Puppet master version 2.6.17
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nHere I can see that the puppet master created the certificate using the name I wanted: puppet.domainname.com.<\/p>\n

Next I opened another terminal window and started the puppet agent. This way I can see what was happening on the master AND the agent:
\nsudo puppet agent --no-daemonize --verbose<\/code><\/p>\n

The agent returned:
\nnotice: Starting Puppet client version 2.6.17
\ninfo: Retrieving plugin
\nerr: \/File[\/var\/lib\/puppet\/lib]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve information from environment production source(s) puppet:\/\/puppet.domainname.com\/plugins

\ninfo: Creating state file \/var\/lib\/puppet\/state\/state.yaml
\nnotice: Finished catalog run in 0.06 seconds<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nThe error is OK. It doesn’t mean that the agent is not working. It means that there is no plugins location on the server. <\/p>\n

The server returned the following:
\ninfo: access[^\/catalog\/([^\/]+)$]: allowing 'method' find
\ninfo: access[^\/catalog\/([^\/]+)$]: allowing $1 access

\ninfo: Caching node for puppet.domainname.com
\nnotice: Compiled catalog for puppet.domainname.com in environment production in 0.03 seconds
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nNow that I know it’s working I’m going to CtrlC both the agent and the master. I’m not going to set the master to start automatically yet because I want the puppet master to use httpd and not the ruby server it uses by default.<\/p>\n

NOTE: One thing I notice when I setup the master and agent up on the same machine is that I do not need to sign the certificate.<\/p>\n

 
\nFirst thing is to install Passenger:
\nsudo rpm -Uvh http:\/\/passenger.stealthymonkeys.com\/rhel\/5\/passenger-release.noarch.rpm <\/p>\n

sudo yum install mod_passenger<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nThen install mod_ssl:
\nsudo yum install mod_ssl<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nIf you look at http:\/\/docs.puppetlabs.com\/guides\/passenger.html<\/a> it says to copy cp puppetmaster.conf \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/<\/p>\n

but this file is no where to be found or at least, I cannot find it. So… I created it:
\ntouch \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d\/puppetmaster.conf<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nI then add the contents at the bottom of http:\/\/docs.puppetlabs.com\/guides\/passenger.html:<\/p>\n


\nListen 8140

\n <\/directory>
\n Options None
\n AllowOverride None
\n Order allow,deny
\n allow from all<\/p>\n

<\/virtualhost>
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nNOTE: There is a file called apache2 in \/usr\/share\/puppet\/ext\/rack\/files but this file will not work if you copy if into \/etc\/httpd\/conf.d.<\/p>\n

 
\nNext I created the rack application:
\nmkdir -p \/usr\/share\/rack\/puppetmasterd
\nmkdir -p \/usr\/share\/puppet\/rack\/puppetmasterd
\nmkdir \/usr\/share\/puppet\/rack\/puppetmasterd\/public \/usr\/share\/puppet\/rack\/puppetmasterd\/tmp
\n cp \/usr\/share\/puppet\/ext\/rack\/files\/config.ru \/usr\/share\/puppet\/rack\/puppetmasterd\/
\nchown puppet \/usr\/share\/puppet\/rack\/puppetmasterd\/config.ru
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nNow I check if my config is ok for httpd:
\nsudo \/sbin\/service httpd configtest<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nIf all is good it returns ‘Syntax OK’
\nI restart it:
\nsudo \/sbin\/service httpd restart<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nNow I start the agent in –no-daemonize and –verbose mode:notice: Starting Puppet client version 2.6.17
\ninfo: Retrieving plugin
\nerr: \/File[\/var\/lib\/puppet\/lib]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve information from environment production source(s) puppet:\/\/puppet.nelsone.com\/plugins
\ninfo: Caching catalog for puppet.nelsone.com
\ninfo: Applying configuration version '1345435173'
\nnotice: Finished catalog run in 0.10 seconds
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

 
\nSame as above! that’s good. Just to be 100% sure that it’s working using the httpd server, I’m going to check the access log i added in the conf file:<\/p>\n
