Salt Minion Problems
-
@scottalanmiller the bad key i accepted? how do i unnaccept a key?
-
You've not done the first step yet, which is removing the blocking key. So that is going to keep things from working.

The directions that I sent.
sudo salt-key -d ip-65-75-137-152.localWhen you are confused by a step, don't skip it. Ask right away. Skipping steps when something is confusing or causes an error is slowing this way down. We keep thinking you've done pieces, but you are jumping around.
-
@scottalanmiller actually, i asked you what the minion name was that you wanted me to use to do the first step, and you told me to use a hostname command.
SO i have been trying to do the first step the whole time. I have jumped around one bit at all.
i asked and have been trying to do step 1. -

Sorry, thought you were asking what one to add as you had provided us the one to remove.

The command for step one gave you an error about unaccepted keys? That's not right. Something wrong with that error message as that is a command only for accepted keys.
-
It does give that error though. That's messed up. How confusing is that?
-
@scottalanmiller which is why i think it gave me an error. however i have followed the steps, and im still getting the same error message on step 3 when i put the hostname in

That's because the correct key has not yet appeared:
# salt-key --list-all Accepted Keys: Denied Keys: Unaccepted Keys: ip-65-75-137-152.local Rejected Keys: -
@WrCombs wait.
let me retry that with the correct name -

-
@WrCombs same error occurss
-
@Romo neither is mine now
-
@scottalanmiller shouldn't the salt-master have already sent its own key? In my vm the first key I accepted was the key my master.
This could mean there is something else that's wrong don't you think?

Which part? The master? That seems fine.
-
@scottalanmiller Yes, on my install the master shows fine on @WrCombs the master doesnt appear.
-
Don't rename the hosts, that's going to lead to more problems.
-
I'm rebooting to test something. For some reason, the Salt Master never showed up in the key list either. This implies something is certainly wrong.
