I disabled PuppetDB in the Foreman Webinterface, so now i can delete the host. Please tell me the official workaround for this case
Is your puppetdb up? Judging from the error foreman seems to be reaching out to it on host deletion, but the connection is not getting through.
I think no. Nothing is listening on Port 8081 in lsof. How can i check my PuppetDB?
To be honest I don’t know, I never used puppetdb myself. The puppetdb plugin expects you to have a puppetdb up and running. Since you explicitly enabled the puppetdb plugin using the installer, I’d expect you to already have puppetdb set up.
