Problem: Trying to use formen with a remote proxy servers
Expected outcome: should be able to import puppet environments
Foreman and Proxy versions: foreman-proxy-1.12.3
Foreman and Proxy plugin versions: na
Other relevant data:
Old foremen/puppetmaster splitting the old foremen sever off after patching broke it
It seems your URL is broken --> http://:8000/puppet
What did you try to do? I don’t understand your workflow and neither your “Other relevant data”.
Ok our Old foremen died during a patching accident. We Decided that now will be a good time to upgrade to something newer I think we were running 1.9 I build a new rhel 7 box and installed formen 1.12 I got it up and running then then added the formen-smart proxy 1.12 to the old puppet master configured that and I can not import any of the puppet environments from the puppet-master.
a namp scan show that 8000/tcp open http-alt

puppet version is 3.87
If you wanted to upgrade to something newer, why did you choose version 1.12. ? This version is out of support for a long time now.
Please install Foreman 1.19. as it is the current stable.
Please close this issue the solution was to put relative paths in the puppet config
