Issue #1754 has been updated by luke.
Use 'include ::php' if you want this to work. Puppet's just ignoring your attempt to have a class include itself. You might need to quote the class name in the 'include', I can't remember. If you think this should throw a warning or something, please open a new ticket with a more clear description. ---------------------------------------- Bug #1754: puppet magically doesn't evaluate certain (special named) included classes http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1754 Author: immerda Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: language Target version: Complexity: Unknown Affected version: 0.24.5 Keywords: given the following manifest: <pre> class php { fail("php") } class apache::foobar::php { notice("yeah2") include php } class apache::foobar::webhosting_php { include apache::foobar::php } class somehost { include apache::foobar::webhosting_php } include somehost notice("yeah") </pre> and running it with puppet will not give the expected result: <pre> # puppet foobar.pp notice: Scope(Class[apache::foobar::php]): yeah2 notice: Scope(Class[main]): yeah </pre> imho puppet should fail as the php class has clearly a fail statement. I discovered this while debugging a certain host because it didn't install php on it. the includes are similar to this lab setup, however spreaded over modules and different files. But I get the same result putting notices in the different parts as in the lab setup. Currently I have no idea how to debug this further nor where exactly the problem may lie. As the classes are named somehow similar to address the needed functionality I had the idea that this might "confuse" puppet. So I tested the following manifest: <pre> class test { fail("php") } class foobar { notice("yeah2") include test } class blah { include foobar } class somehost { include blah } include somehost notice("yeah") </pre> which fails as expected: <pre> # puppet foobar.pp notice: Scope(Class[foobar]): yeah2 php at /tmp/foobar.pp:2 on node foobar </pre> So I definately think that this is a problem of the evaluation as putting a syntax error in the php class will fail puppet to parse the manifest. either debug nor trace statements give more information. Behaviour have been reproduced on: - 0.24.5 - 0.24.6 - HEAD ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
