Issue #1848 has been updated by micah. Status changed from Accepted to Rejected
It turns out that I was just doing this wrong. As my good friend Pietro told me, surrounding the array with single quotes is wrong. Because if you put it between single quotes it is treated a string, instead it should be: <pre> environment => ['TMPDIR=/var/tmp', 'TMP=/var/tmp'], </pre> Thanks pietro! ---------------------------------------- Feature #1848: support multi-line cron environment variables http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1848 Author: micah Status: Rejected Priority: Low Assigned to: community Category: cron Target version: unplanned Complexity: Unknown Affected version: 0.24.7 Keywords: It seemed to be within the puppet way of doing things to try and specify two cron environment variables, that I expected to be on multiple lines as follows: <pre> cron { "sa-update_openprotect": command => "sa-update --gpgkeyfile /etc/spamassassin/sa-update_gpgkeys --channelfile /etc/spamassassin/sa-update_channels && sa-compile &>/dev/null && /etc/init.d/spamassassin restart &>/dev/null", environment => '["TMPDIR=/var/tmp", "TMP=/var/tmp"]', user => root, hour => 2, minute => 0; } </pre> But that doesn't work, instead you need to do something not as intuitive: <pre> environment => "TMPDIR=/var/tmp\nTMP=/var/tmp", </pre> Would be cool if puppet crontypes supported the other way of doing this, as this seemed like the cleaner, "puppet" way of doing it. ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
