[Puppet Users] Tidy on puppet 2.7.18 not working

Hi

I am trying to delete files which are older than a week under the directory
"/var/lib/puppet/reports" on puppet master using tidy resource,
however I
cannot seem to get it working ?  Any reason as to why this would happen ?

root@WheezyMaster:/var/lib/puppet/reports# puppet -V
2.7.18
root@WheezyMaster:/var/lib/puppet/reports# cat /etc/puppet/manifests/tidy.pp
tidy {delete_old_yaml:
  path  => "/var/lib/puppet/reports",
  age    => ''1w'',
  recurse => true,
  matches => ["*.yaml"],
}
root@WheezyMaster:/var/lib/puppet/reports# ls -ltrh wheezyagent.example.com/

Re: [Puppet Users] Tidy on puppet 2.7.18 not working

http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/latest/type.html#tidy

The default is atime, maybe you could try mtime?
tidy {delete_old_yaml:
  path  => "/var/lib/puppet/reports",
  age    => ''1w'',
  type => ''mtime'',
  recurse => true,
  matches => ["*.yaml"],
}

Your filesystem might be set to noatime - you can try find with the -mtime
and -atime and see if there is a difference on what is returned.
