Issue #3748 has been updated by Matt Robinson. Status changed from Investigating to Closed
Hey John, Sorry I didn't see your comment on the ticket until Markus pointed it out to me. I'm unable to reproduce the new message that you're getting, but it sounds unrelated to the original problem in this ticket. I'm going to close this ticket, and if you're still getting that notice `notice: //mymodule/User[tom]/ensure: created` go ahead and create a new ticket with some details to reproduce it (operating system, puppet version, ruby version). Also in the ticket if you could answer: Does the user already exist and every run it's erroneously reporting it recreated, or does it never exist and it's erroneously being reported created at all? ---------------------------------------- Bug #3748: group membership problem http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3748 Author: John Florian Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assigned to: John Florian Category: user Target version: 0.25.6 Affected version: 0.25.4 Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/mmrobins/puppet/tree/bug/0.25.x/3748-ldap_group_membership_comparison My user accounts are kept in LDAP. On one puppet-managed host, I want to make some of those LDAP-based users members of a host-local group. I gave the following a shot: <pre> user { "tom": groups => "somegroup", } user { "dick": groups => "somegroup", } user { "harry": groups => "somegroup", } </pre> Now when I run this the first time, it did just exactly what I wanted by adding these users to the group in /etc/group. However, every time puppet runs again, it tries to repeat the process. I think this is because when it tests the current group membership, the groups are listed in a different order -- even though the current set and the desired set are identical. For example, on successive runs I see the following logged: <pre> notice: //mymodule/User[tom]/groups: groups changed 'wheel,somegroup,wheel,admin' to 'admin,somegroup,pooch,wheel' </pre> I suppose the fault may not be the ordering, but instead with the fact that 'wheel' appears twice in the current membership. I dunno, but it keeps the logs really busy with these false changes. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
