Puppet not working
Installation:
RHEL 7.4
Satellite: 6.2.12
I am fairly new so point me in the right direction if documentation exists to help me. :)
I had a working system with puppet pushing things out as expected but while trying to get hiera with variable encryption working (to hold passwords) I managed to break my server and I have not been able to recover.
When I make a simple change to a module updating /etc/issue then run "puppet agent -t" as root on one of the target boxes I do not get the update. The agent runs cleanly, however, it does not appear to notice the change (no changes are applied and no errors/warnings are reported).
I suspect the problem is in the /etc/puppet/puppet.conf on the master, however, I don't have a copy of the working version.

I think the question is a little too open ended and difficult to troubleshooting without knowing what you've changed.
I would extract the config file from the original RPM and use that as a base to revert to (as it sounds like you have have a full Satellite install). Then work forward from that.
Is this on satellite 6.2.x or just a normal puppetmaster/client environment?
Check your [ENVIRONMENTS DIRECTORY]/[ENVIRONMENT]/manifests/site.pp
Usually in /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp or something.
Make sure the nodes in question are getting the target modules.
What change did you make? Did you change dns or module names?
