reportdir

is the location used by

store

. Are your agents configured to send reports with

report = true

in the

[agent]

section of the config?

yes and no. report = true is the default, so I never specified that in the config. BUT - since it's a problem, I did try putting that in a node's config (puppet.conf) and it didn't help.

I don't use

store

normally but I just enabled it now and it did write reports for me. What do you get from

puppet config --section server print reportdir

run from the Puppet server? For me that returns a different path compared to without "`--section server`" for some reason.

Yea, mine is different too ~/.puppetlabs/opt/puppet/cache/reports Which also doesn't exist, my ~/.puppetlabs/opt/puppet/ dir is empty. What even puts that .puppetlabs/ dir in there? I'm on freebsd, there's not any 'puppetlabs' anywhere, everything is /usr/local/etc/puppet...

Not familiar with freebsd at all..... you might have to wait for someone smarter to answer 😏

You should run the puppet config as root

yep /var/puppet/reports

You may want to run puppet agent with —trace option to see if it does even try to store any report

Thanks for your timely reply! Here's my output, grep'd for 'report'

Cannot check it now.. but maybe later or maybe someone will share some ideas
