Puppet Enterprise appeared to be installed on my ubuntu 14.04 server:

root@puppet:/# puppet --version
3.8.5 (Puppet Enterprise 3.8.4)

However, the puppet service is not running:

root@puppet:/# service puppet status
puppet: unrecognized service

The Puppet server seems to be working as well, as I can execute following command on the puppet master:

root@puppet:/# puppet resource package nginx
package { 'nginx':
  ensure => '1.4.6-1ubuntu3.4',

Puppet cert list is empty as well even after running 'puppet agent -t' on a node:

root@puppet:/# puppet cert list 
root@puppet:/#

The puppet service is called pe-puppet and not puppet on PE 3.x.

puppet cert list only displays the outstanding cert requests. You want puppet cert list --all to display the signed certs. https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/latest/reference/man/cert.html

service puppetmaster status

this will show the status of the puppet on the master machine

service puppet status

this will show the status on the slave/agent machine
