Bootstrap script failing. Puppet Could not request certificate: No content type in http response; cannot parse

Support
#1

Problem:

The bootstrap script just hangs on the step

/usr/bin/puppet agent --test --noop --tags no_such_tag --waitforcert 10

When I run it manually I see the following logs

Error: Could not request certificate: No content type in http response; cannot parse
Error: Could not request certificate: No content type in http response; cannot parse
Error: Could not request certificate: No content type in http response; cannot parse

Expected outcome:

Should work

Foreman 1.24 is very old and out of the support, please upgrade first to some new version.

#3

Hey, I’ve managed to get it working and this is a fresh install of foreman so not sure why I’ve got 1.24 installed. When I run [root@foreman ~]# foreman-maintain upgrade list-versions I get nothing back. How can I do the incremental upgrades to get up to the latest release?
