puppetca never returns anything
- by mrisher
Hi: I'm trying to configure Puppet on Ubuntu, and strangely I am never able to generate a certificate because my server never shows any pending certificate requests.
Put differently, on the server I am running puppetmasterd and on the client I am able to connect to the server, but the client continues printing
notice: Did not receive certificate
warning: peer certificate won't be verified in this SSL session
and yet the server never sees the request
mrisher@lab2$ puppetca --list
[nothing shows up]
mrisher@lab2$ puppetca --sign clientname.domain.com
clientname.domain.com
err: Could not call sign: Could not find certificate request for clientname.domain.com
Edit: There was a suggestion that autosign was happening, but that does not seem to be it. There is no autosign.conf file, and when I run puppetmasterd --no-daemonize -d -v I receive the following output:
info: Could not find certificate for 'clientname.domain.com'
every time the client says
notice: Did not receive certificate
I checked the certs on the server and there don't seem to be any:
mrisher@lab2:~$ puppetca --list --all
mrisher@lab2:~$ sudo puppetca --list --all
+ lab2.domain.com // this is the server (master)
mrisher@lab2:~$ sudo puppetca --list
[blank line]
mrisher@lab2:~$
Note: This is mostly running the default install from Ubuntu, if that gives any leads.
Thanks for any help out there.
