You'll need to set allow_unauthenticated_ca to true on your OpsWorks master and then run puppet on it to make the change. Afterwards, you should be able to install the agent even if you're not provisioning from AWS or choose not to use the userdata script.

Steps:

1. login to console.
2. click on classification
3. under PE infrastructure, select PE master.
4. Go to configuration tab
5. look for class puppet_enterprise::profile::master
6. under parameters, select allow_unauthenticated_ca and set it to true
