I have provisioned a host using a manually created environment (not
production). I am now trying to use "puppet run". But i fails with below
error
failed to execute puppetrun: ERF12-4252 [ProxyAPI::ProxyException]: Unable
to execute Puppet run ([RestClient::InternalServerError]: 500 Internal
Server Error) for proxy https://puppet.testlab.org:8443/puppet
puppet smart proxy is running on my foreman server.
I changed the below settings
Changed listen to "true" both on puppet master and host * puppet.conf*.
Changed the name of environment to "Test-Enviornment" in puppet.conf
master file (to match the environment setting on this host)
Still When i click on puppet run, it throws up this error
When i restart puppet service and click, it works without error but it do
nothing (i have some modules to be installed ). Second attempt to click
"run puppet" fails.
I also do not see any report from this host and suspect the same problem.

Note that the "listen" mode is deprecated since Puppet 3.0, I wouldn't
advise using it in a new environment. Foreman :: Manual has a number of
alternatives listed under Puppet run providers, which you can configure
on your smart proxy.

Check the smart proxy log file to see the output from the Puppet command
at /var/log/foreman-proxy/proxy.log. Note of course that the smart
proxy is just calling "puppet kick" so you should test this yourself.
You might find that the agent is locked - while it's executing a run, it
will throw an error if you request a second.

Probably unrelated, but hard to say without any logs from running Puppet
on the host, from Foreman's production.log etc.
