Hello,
I''m using puppet 0.25.1 - and I''m trying to create a custom
resource to
use launchctl to stop a launchd job.
command => "launchctl stop `launchctl list | grep $job_real | cut -f
3`",
yeilds:
err:
//sav/Stop_launchd_job[com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch]/Exec[com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch]/returns:
change from notrun to 0 failed: launchctl stop `launchctl list | grep
com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch | cut -f 3` returned 1 instead of one of
[0] at
/var/puppet/environments/development/modules/lanl-baseline/manifests/definitions/stop_launchd_job.pp:49
and
command => "launchctl list | awk
/$job_real/''{system(\"launchctl stop \"
\"\\\"\"\$3\"\\\"\");}''`",
yeilds:
err:
//sav/Stop_launchd_job[com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch]/Exec[com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch]/returns:
change from notrun to 0 failed: launchctl list | awk
/com.Symantec.SymSecondaryLaunch/''{system("launchctl stop "
"\""$3"\"");}''` returned 2 instead of one
of [0] at
/var/puppet/environments/development/modules/lanl-baseline/manifests/definitions/stop_launchd_job.pp:49
Both commands work when done at the command-line (as seen in the error...)
and return 0 (when run at the command line).
Is the problem that with either command I''m either doing a `` or
system()
call?
Can anyone see a way to make this work?
If you''d like me to send the whole resource, I''d be happy to.
Thanks,
-Roy

Roy, I don''t believe you need to customize an exec for this - you can simply define a service with the JobID of your Launchd plist, and then send the plist to the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory. See the docs site for the launchd type reference --> http://docs.reductivelabs.com/references/stable/type.html#service and then check out a classfile to ensure our Puppet LaunchDaemon is running --> http://github.com/huronschools/Huron-City-Schools-Puppet-Repository/blob/master/manifests/classes/puppetlaunchdaemon.pp Is this what you''re talking about, or are you thinking of something else?

Thanks Gary, I tried that - but the ensure => stopped doesn''t work for the launchd provider of the service type. see: refacor #2056 under Statler on: http://projects.reductivelabs.com/projects/puppet/roadmap I need some way to stop a launchd process until the refactor happens :) Regards, -Roy On 3/3/10 5:20 PM, Gary Larizza Jr. wrote:> Roy, > I don''t believe you need to customize an exec for this - you can > simply define a service with the JobID of your Launchd plist, and then > send the plist to the /Library/LaunchDaemons directory.
