Puppet users - Jun 2012 - Puppet windows newbie: command runs but ends with failure

Hi , 
  I am new to Puppet and I just started testing it out in my windows 
machine to do a set of tasks which I do manually currently and once I get 
the hang of it would like to use it for provisioning later. My current task 
is pretty simple:
1. Run an svn update command on a folder
2. Run maven install command
3. ... a whole bunch of other tasks related to setting up a custom server 
on a users machine.

However , when I run an exec like the below, I can see that the maven runs 
successfully  but the task fails at the end as shown below:

/Stage[main]/Cmserver/Exec[mvninstall]/returns: [INFO] Compiling 59 source 
files to 
C:\Users\agopalakrishnan\SourceCode\CM-Server\implementation\test-console\target\classes

The task is as below:
exec { ''mvninstall'':
cwd => 
''C:\Users\agopalakrishnan\SourceCode\CM-Server\implementation\test-console'',
path =>
''C:/Users/agopalakrishnan/Software/apache-maven-2.2.1/bin;%PATH%'',
command => ''C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe /c mvn.bat
compile'',
       provider => windows,
         logoutput => true,
timeout => 1000,
}

Any help is greatly appeciated.

Regards,
Anoop

Your mvn.bat script is trying to invoke cmd, but failing because the
PATH environment is not correct, see more below.

Just a side note, since ruby is a 32-bit executable, file system
redirection takes effect, causing puppet to launch the 32-bit cmd.exe.
This may or may not be an issue for you depending on what you are
trying to do. There''s more info here[1]

Puppet doesn''t expand environment variables the way you are thinking.
Change that to:

  path =>
"C:/Users/agopalakrishnan/Software/apache-maven-2.2.1/bin;${path}",

When compiling the catalog, the `path` parameter (for the exec
resource) will be interpolated using the `path` fact as reported by
the agent. More about using variables here[2]
