inventory service in Puppet-dashboard

[Sans]

Hi there,

I installed puppet-dashboard, which works just fine, and trying to activate inventory-services but get this error on the agent:

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Please install the mysql adapter: `gem install activerecord-mysql-adapter` (Could not find RubyGem mysql (~> 2.8.1)

on the master, these are the packages I got installed:

 [root@sdas puppet-dashboard]# rpm -qa | sort | egrep 'gem|mysql'
mysql-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64
mysql-libs-5.1.61-1.el6_2.1.x86_64

rubygem-daemon_controller-0.2.6-1.el6.noarch
rubygem-fastthread-1.0.7-2.el6.x86_64
rubygem-passenger-3.0.12-1.el6.x86_64

rubygem-rake-0.8.7-2.1.el6.noarch
rubygems-1.3.7-1.el6.noarch
ruby-mysql-2.8.2-1.el6.x86_64

and the number of installed GEMS:

[root@sdas puppet-dashboard]# gem list

*** LOCAL GEMS ***

activemodel (3.2.6)
activerecord (3.2.6)
activesupport (3.2.6)
arel (3.0.2)

You're missing the mysql rubygem.

thanks Matt!
I got ruby-mysql-2.8.2-1.el6.x86_64 installed - so. it's not the same thing?
Do I have to install that manually to make it work? Cheers!!

Yeah, they're different things, I think.

Try doing a 'gem install mysql' assuming you're on an internet connected
host. If not, get hold of the rubygem from
http://rubygems.org/gems/mysql and install it via 'gem install --local
mysql' - you'll need the mysql-devel package installed. Or you could
try to find a ready made rubygem-mysql RPM somewhere, but it doesn't
look like EPEL has it yet.

Regards,

Matt.

I finally managed to do gem install mysql and it's now installed. Although I don't any error(s) on the agent, but, I get:

Could not retrieve facts from inventory service: 403 "Forbidden"

error on the browser. I already have this in my auth.conf:

path /facts
method find
auth any
allow *

as someone suggested in another forum but I don't see any inventory data at all. Any idea how do I go around this issue?

Cheers,
San

Forgot to mention that I'm also seeing these in the syslog:

puppet-master[7035]: Denying access: Forbidden request: dashboard(xx.xxx.xx.xx) access to /facts/xxxx.cloud.com [find] authenticated  at line 99
puppet-master[7035]: Forbidden request: dashboard(xx.xxx.xx.xx) access to /facts/xxxx.cloud.com [find] authenticated  at line 99

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!!

Hi guys,

Just wondering, if any one can tell me it it's a "certificate" related issue. Still can't find any thing obvious. Cheers!!
