Jira (PUP-5652) Windows Package provider does not work with Installshield with MSI files

[Corey Osman (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Corey Osman created an issue   Puppet / PUP-5652 Windows Package provider does not work with Installshield with MSI files Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 3.8.0 Assignee: Aaron Armstrong Components: PE, Types and Providers Created: 2016/01/05 1:46 PM Environment: PE 3.8 Priority: Normal Reporter: Corey Osman Reference Material: http://unattended.sourceforge.net/installers.php (InstallShield with MSI) The windows package provider incorrectly quotes or adds a space when combining the install options. Because the Installshield installer is a wrapper exe for another installer, options must be specially quoted and passed in as an argument. However, puppet can't seem to get the quotes right no matter what I do. Example: $arg_params = "MANAGEMENT_SERVER=${management_server} /l*v! ${install_log} /qn" $package_name = 'Symantec Critical System Protection Agent' package {$package_name : ensure => $ensure_value, source => $source_path, install_options => ['/s', "/v\"${arg_params}\"], } The result of the install options should be ./installer.exe /s /v"MANAGEMENT_SERVER=1.1.1.1 /l*v! c:\temp\log.txt /qn" Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.12#64027-sha1:e3691cc) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
