[Puppet Users] puppet error on cron w/ "complex" timing
Hello,
cron { foo:
command => "/bin/date > /tmp/foo",
user => root,
minute => ''2,7,12,17,22,27,32,37,42,47,52,57''
}
Which when parsed by puppetd produces :
err: Could not run Puppet configuration client: Parameter minute failed:
2,7,12,17,22,27,32,37,42,47,52,57 is not a valid minute at foo.pp:##
I agree that it''s an awkward minute line, but it doesn''t
violate cron
rules at all. I''m just curious if this is normal, expected behaviour
from puppet, or if it''s a bug, or something else perhaps.
Thanks all.

Try
minute => [2,7,12,17,22,27,32,37,42,47,52,57]
