Puppet + Passenger + Apache/Nginx

I'm working on a very large puppet deployment, bu开发者_StackOverflowt seem to be hitting a brick wall. My ideal setup is to use Nginx + Passenger to serve puppet. The problem I am having is that Puppet throws errors when running through passenger. If I start puppetmasterd, everything works fine, but serving through Passenger gives the following errors:

Jun 22 07:33:04 $master_hostname puppet-master[15710]: Starting Puppet master version 2.6.8
Jun 22 07:33:04 $master_hostname puppet-master[15720]: No support for http method POST
Jun 22 07:33:04 $master_hostname puppet-master[15720]: Denying access: Forbidden request: $client_hostname($client_ip) access to /report/$client_hostname [save] authenticated  at line 0
Jun 22 07:33:04 $master_hostname puppet-master[15720]: Forbidden request: $client_hostname($client_ip) access to /report/$client_hostname [save] authenticated  at line 0

Everything seems to point to an auth.conf problem, but my auth.conf file is about as generic as it could get, and like I said, everything works when I serve puppet using Rack directly.

Has anybody ever ran into this issue?

Sounds like this:

The concept being that you need to configure NGINX to pass information through to Puppet as it now provides the SSL layers.
