Issue #656 has been updated by Luke Kanies. Assigned to deleted (Luke Kanies)
---------------------------------------- Bug #656: cron entries with newlines keep being updated http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/656 Author: Tobu - Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: cron Target version: unplanned Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.7 Keywords: Branch: Here is the puppet snippet I use: <pre> class standalone-puppet { $logdest = "/var/log/puppet/cron.log" cron { hourly-puppet: command => "/usr/bin/puppet \ --use-nodes /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp \ --logdest $logdest", user => root, minute => 48, } } </pre> Every time puppet runs and updates the cronjob, on debian, it updates the cron entry: <pre> notice: //default/standalone-puppet/Cron[hourly-puppet]/command: command changed '/usr/bin/puppet --use-nodes /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp --logdest /var/log/puppet/cron.log' to '/usr/bin/puppet --use-nodes /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp --logdest /var/log/puppet/cron.log' </pre> I'm not sure the problem is on puppet or crontab's side, but it would be nice to prevent this. Also, maybe there is a better technique for writing long strings - here documents? -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
