Logs should be in /var/log/puppetlabs/

activemq

mcollective-audit.log

puppetserver

orchestration-services

console-services

installer

nginx

pxp-agent

mcollective-metadata-cron.log

postgresql

mcollective.log

This directory has the logs of the code deployment tool

> puppet
This is where you find the logs from puppet agent

> activemq
Here you find the logs of mcollective orchestrator

> mcollective-audit.log
> puppetserver
Here you find the logs of the puppet server process

> orchestration-services
This is for the new PE only orchestrator

> console-services
This is for the logs of the web based node classification tool

> installer
As the name mentions: logs from the installer

> nginx
The puppet server also has a nginx in front.

> pxp-agent
This is for the new “direct puppet” daemon which is used by the new orchestrator

> mcollective-metadata-cron.log
> postgresql
PuppetDB is a REST to PGSQL interface and has its logs here

> mcollective.log
> puppetdb
This is where puppetdb stores its logs.

Hi Martin,

Thanks for your response. I have added some code to site.pp and i have applied it. 

Please let me know where can i see in master whether the changes applied successfully or not. 

puppet directory is empty in my environment. 

Thanks,

[Martin Alfke]

I suppose you have done the following:

puppet apply /<path>/site.pp

Puppet apply does not need a Puppet server process. It applies the content of the given file locally.
Puppet apply directly shows you whether the code was successful and which chafes have been done.

If you want to see something on the master you have to run the puppet agent command.

Maybe you want to start with the learning Puppet website (http:((learn.puppetlabs.com) to get an understanding of Puppet functionality, components and workflow.

Best,
Martin

Martin, can't he also check for regular puppet run statuses in the Puppet Administrative Console for the specific node?
