Expected outcome:

with theforeman / puppet up and running we would expect the client to have facts uploaded properly and have the node associated with config/host groups / classes have those applied

Foreman and Proxy versions:
foreman 3.3

Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:

Distribution and version:

Other relevant data:

We are getting the iabrw-hfweb02.olh.local.yaml in the folder /opt/puppetlabs/server/data/puppetserver/yaml/facts after doing the puppet agent -t

It seems like we are having some form of cert error but not sure how to check this or resolve.

any help would be appreciated.

For some reason I cant edit the above to add more info so wanted to add more here.

in /etc/foreman-proxy/settings.yml we have these

and

:foreman_ssl_cert: /etc/foreman-proxy/foreman_ssl_cert.pem
:foreman_ssl_key: /etc/foreman-proxy/foreman_ssl_key.pem

also in /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/foreman.yaml

We where able to figure this out or get passed the error with some help from VendettaMike.

had to explicitly reference Katello certs in the foreman installer command.

foreman-installer --enable-foreman-plugin-puppet --enable-foreman-cli-puppet \
--foreman-proxy-puppet true --foreman-proxy-puppetca true \
--foreman-proxy-content-puppet true --enable-puppet --puppet-server true \

Which is how it’s supposed to be done according to the docs: Configuring Hosts Using Puppet
