I'm following along in PDF documentation I downloaded from the official site and I'm stuck after I installed rack & passenger modules from rubygems. I ran the passenger build script and it compiled and installed into my local apache httpd server successfully.
Now where do I find an working example of puppetmaster.conf ? Which config.ru should I be coping into /usr/share/puppet/rack/puppetmasterd ?
Is there a guide on generate the pem files required for use when defining the virtual host settings in puppetmaster?
I'm almost fed-up already and I've not even gotten 1 agent configured to talk to my sever
Puppet seems way too clumber some with the amount of dependencies required so far.
I almost feel like going back to hacking on my system based on Python & Fabric :(

Please visit our website for important disclaimers/disclosures regarding Knight's products and services:
You've probably gone about this the hard way. It would be best to just get the server running without passenger and learn Puppet itself. You only need passenger when you exceed 50-100 systems.
Anyway, to answer your questions the config.ru is available in share/puppet (exactly where depending on your OS), and puppetmaster.conf should have been installed when the gem/rpm was installed. But you should probably be using the docs on www.puppetlabs.com rather than the PDF, I suspect they are kept more up to date.

In your position I would "apt-get install puppet" and then try out some manifests before running my own puppetmaster. Then I would "apt-get install puppetmaster" or something similar. Personally I have never installed from gems and I've been just fine.
(Or pkg_add -r puppet or yum install puppet etc. etc.)

It might also be helpful to include your O/S, here ... as there are many linuxes where installing puppet can largely be reduced to installing the right RPMs out of one repository or another (so you worry less about compiling and manufacturing basic configs than just learning how to make puppet go).

to learn the stuff before creating master infrastructure and stuff. BTW: There are masterless users out there (cf. "Masterless" listing at my blog posting linked above).

Seriously: use the packages of your distribution or the YUM/APT repos by Puppetlabs if you want to start with all the 2.7 features right now (I would recommend that - why learning and maintain old stuff if you just start to use Puppet?). Or are you running Puppet on windows (=no repositories available)?

Cool, even better. Since when does a Puppet MSI exist? However: One more reason why I can't understand the "Puppet seems way too clumber some with the amount of dependencies required so far"-statement. :-)
I'm running 64Bit CentOS 6.2 I'm using the Puppet software from scratch I couldn't find any RPM's is there a yum repo for puppet RPM binaries and dependencies? I didn't see one so I built from source.
I need to support roughly ~3000 Linux host, I have a 3 VM's in my lab right now I'm using to familiarize myself with the software so ill rather start learning to configure Puppet for a large production deployment instead of just running it in adhoc or simple configuration modes.
Thanks.
