Issue #2127 has been updated by James Turnbull. Target version changed from Rowlf to Statler
---------------------------------------- Bug #2127: cron resource adds newline when compiled from a template http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/2127 Author: Phil Schwartz Status: Accepted Priority: Low Assigned to: Category: cron Target version: Statler Affected version: 0.24.7 Keywords: Branch: If the template consists of a single line that does not end with a templated variable or ruby code snippet then a newline is added to the cron command. This causes an issue when puppet reapplies it's configuration since it always compares "cmd" with "cmd\n" and thus recreates the crontab each time it runs. if template contains "/bin/true" then a newline is appended. However, if the template ends with a -%> then the newline is suppressed, so the following workaround suffices "/bin/true <% "" -%>. This hack isn't elegant nor obvious, but it appears to work. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
