You might not have any problems, it's usually a bug in Puppet where the
autosign.conf configuration interferes with the generate call. If
Foreman's up and running, I'd ignore it as the cert must have been
generated successfully.

If not, delete or empty /etc/puppet/autosign.conf, /var/lib/puppet/ssl
and then re-run the generate command and restart all services.

Thx a lot.
File /etc/puppet/autosign.conf doesn't exist. After deleting of
/var/lib/puppet/ssl and new "signing" is all OK.
I'm missing also automatic start of httpd ( service httpd start ; chkconfig
httpd on ) after installation

Regards
Oleg

Hi all,

FYI, I had exactly the same issue for the sertificate (solved as indicated
by Dominic) and on HTTP.
There were 2 issues on HTTP

  • I had to relaunch foreman-installer to have it installed correctly
  • I also had to check HTTP configuration and especially ssl. The SSL.conf
    (in /etc/httpd/) tried to open port 443 as foreman.conf. I just delete the
    virtualhost bloc in ssl.conf and everything ran ok;

Regards
Yannig

It's possible the installer stopped early because of that error,
re-running it should continue from where it left off.
