[root@bangvmpllDA02 logs]#
however none of my agents are able to connect to the master, they all fail with errors like so
[amisr1@blramisr195602 ~]$ puppet agent --test --verbose --server bangvmpllda02.XXX.com

when I check logs on puppet master
[root@bangvmpllDA02 logs]# tail puppet_access.log

and the error logs show that nginx is not really able to process the request well

and the puppet.conf

# Where Puppet PID files are kept.
# The default value is '$vardir/run'.

ssl_client_verify_header = SSL_CLIENT_VERIFY

# The default value is '$confdir/ssl'.
ssldir = $vardir/ssl
any ideas where am I going wrong? I checkthe directory permissions; /usr/share/puppet, /etc/puppet and /var/lib/puppet (and files inside them) are owned by puppet user.
Solved
The simple solution to my complicated problem was that I had placed the config.ru in wrong place
moved it to /etc/puppet/rack , it was in /etc/puppet/rack/public
Well!!! :-/
