Hi, On windows hosts, I've taken to putting all my app data in c:\srv, mimicing the /srv location on Linux. Depending on the host, this may be a location on the system drive, or it is sometimes an additional disk mounted at that location. In the latter case, `puppet resource file ` shows this as a link whose target is the underlying volume. An attempt to define a file resource within this location fails with: 'Parent directory C:/srv does not exist' If I create subdirectories here by hand, the puppet run proceeds just fine. Has anyone else come across this behavior? I'm running puppet 3.4.2 at the moment. Happy to upgrade but I can't find any big reports that indicate this is a known issue. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
