[Pkg-puppet-devel] Bug#502193: puppet: Other end went away

[Hanspeter Kunz]

Hi,

I can confirm this. I have one machine (out of 5) reporting

  puppetd[2643]: Other end went away; restarting connection and retrying

every time the client runs (although the clients seems to do its work
nevertheless). 

All the other machines are fine. Version of client and master is the
same on all machines, so is /etc/puppet/puppet.conf.

If I run the client manually on the machine that complains by doing

  sudo puppetd --no-daemonize -o -v 

everything seems fine (i.e. the above message does not appear).

cheers,
Hp.
