[Puppet Users] ensure => file, creating directories
Hi all,
Recently upgraded one of our puppet servers from 2.6.4 to 2.7.5, and
we''re noticing some rather odd behaviour.
What''s always traditionally worked for creating ini files and the
like, is now creating directories instead of files (indeed, replacing
my existing files with directories, which had some rather catastrophic
consequences for the poor poor test systems).
Even when hard coding ensure => file, instead of a passing a
parameter... it creates a directory.
The type parameter just doesn''t seem to be doing as it''s told.
Roll
back to previous version of puppet server, it''s all happy again
(though it can''t convert the directory back to a file, but
that''ll be
a separate issue entirely).
Anybody have any clues as where else would be worth looking in trying
to resolve this?
relevant section of files:
file { $name:
name => "${path}${name}",
mode => $mode,
owner => $owner,
group => $group,
backup => $backup,
recurse => $recurse,
ensure => $ensure,
source => [
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-$type-
$fqdn",
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-$type-
$operatingsystem",
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-$type-
$default",
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-$fqdn",
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-
$operatingsystem",
"puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-default"
],
notify => $notify
Thanks!

On the master run puppet master --compile $hostname and compare the output for the file resource in 2.6 v.s. 2.7. Here''s a simple example: { "exported": false, "line": 21, "title": "/tmp/sample", "parameters": { "ensure": "file" }, ... "type": "File", "file": "/etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp" }, So the first thing is making sure they are the same, the second is write a test manifests with all your attributes on the 2.7 system and see how it behaves: file { "/path/to/file": ensure => file, ... source => [...], } Thanks, Nan -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

If you specify ensure => file but the source is actually not a file but a directory puppet will not complain. It will create the directory. And because of the ticket Russell just quoted I suspect that "puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/$name-$type-$default", will be interpolated like this "puppet://puppet/modules/standalone-configs/$folder/" and all other sources will just be garbage. So in the end puppet will pick a directory, not a file, as the source. -Stefan
Hi, what was the solution finally?
cause i receive directory after the following code:
file { "/etc/apache2/htpasswd/${name}":
ensure => "present",
source => [
"puppet:///modules/sites/htpasswd/${name}",
"puppet:///modules/sites/htpasswd/${sname}",
"puppet:///modules/sites/htpasswd/tnthtpasswd"
],
}
if there is no {name} or {sname} files.
Thanks for help in advance
