Puppet users - Aug 2012 - Exec resource don't write file after the command

Hi all,

I''m trying to have the exec resource write a file after the command but
it
don''t.

here is the resource declaration

class gepet {
notify { ''begin'':}
 file { ''/root/essai/html'':
ensure => present,
content => "Wrote By Yves Nton",
notify => Exec[''test''],
}
 exec { ''test'':
path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin",
cwd => "/root/essai",
command => "rm -rf /root/essai/html",
creates => "/root/essai/exec.txt",
refreshonly => true
}
 notify { ''end'':
require => File[''/root/essai/html'']
}
}

suggestions ?
Thanks

The "creates" attribute tells Puppet that the "command"
attribute actually
creates a file, and that the Exec{} should not be run if that file exists.
 You need to alter your command:
command => "rm -rf /root/essai/html;touch /root/essai/exec.txt"
