HI guys;

 after speaking with puppet labs and gettting the pricing for my site, I thought it maybe cheaper ot go open spurce. so I am asking for a good guide you guys have used the following:

http://nullr0ute.com/2014/01/puppetmaster-on-apache-with-passenger-in-5-mins/
http://www.6tech.org/2013/01/how-to-install-puppet-open-source-on-centos-6-3/
http://darktraining.com/linux/105/
http://www.unixmen.com/install-puppet-server-centos-6-56-4/

all have given my the dreaed ruby error. I hav eupdated the agent nodes to the latest version of puppet/factor/hiera, but still get the error, I have installed via RVM ruby 2.0, 2.1.2, and have seen passenger not running ( passenger-status) and still get the ruby message from the clients.

so I am asking for  a little help and any links you guys can recommend

site info:
800 OSX machines 300 Windows

woud like puppetmaster to be CentOS with passenger and dashboard or forman

Thanks in advance

Keith

Those are some awesomely horrible how-tos. The last one isn't too bad
other than still recommending PassengerUseGlobalQueue which is not
available in Passenger4 and on by default in Passenger3 IIRC.

The standard Passenger/Puppet master how-to should work fine for you.
https://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/passenger.html#install-apache-and-passenger

However you should completely ignore the step where they tell you to gem
install rack passenger. Just use the standard packages from EPEL.
They're probably called rubygems-rack and rubygems-passenger or some
such. There is also no need to install RVM, scl ruby, or compile anything.

In regards to tuning Passenger I finally got around to writing down the
configs you actually want to touch as well as listing all the parameters
which are wrong, deprecated, and plain old broken.

Thanks Ramin K

went through the first part okay, so just letting it sit, do you know of a step by step to get passenger and dashboard, then I could use you settings

Thanks again

Install C6, install EPEL and SCL repository, install Foreman repository and foreman-installer. Execute foreman-installer and the system is ready to run (http://theforeman.org/manuals/1.5/quickstart_guide.html).
