Root cause: /tmp was mounted with noexec (due to CIS compliance).

Solution:

  • mkdir /opt/puppetlabs/server/apps/puppetserver/tmp
  • Add -Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/puppetlabs/server/apps/puppetserver/tmp to JAVA_ARGS in /etc/sysconfig/puppetserver
  • chcon system_u:object_r:usr_t:s0 /opt/puppetlabs/server/apps/puppetserver/tmp
  • chown puppet: /opt/puppetlabs/server/apps/puppetserver/tmp
  • systemctl restart puppetserver

I also added the following options to foreman-installer (persist JAVA_ARGS changes and use JDK 11 with ParallelGC):

--puppet-server-jvm-extra-args "-Djava.io.tmpdir=/opt/puppetlabs/server/apps/puppetserver/tmp -XX:+UseParallelGC" \
--puppet-server-jvm-java-bin "/usr/lib/jvm/jre-11/bin/java"
