Jira (PUP-6392) puppet fileserver does not honor source permissions

[Daniel Urist (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Daniel Urist created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6392 puppet fileserver does not honor source permissions Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.5.1 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/06/07 2:13 PM Environment: Debian 8 (jessie) puppetserver 2.4.0-1puppetlabs1 (from puppetlabs repos) agent 3.8.5-2~bpo8 (from debian repos) Priority: Normal Reporter: Daniel Urist The puppetlabs fileserver apparently doesn't honor the source file tree's permissions. I have the following resource defined in a manifest: file { '/usr/local/mkrepo': source => 'puppet:///modules/profiles/gitserver/mkrepo', links => follow, recurse => true, purge => true, force => true } In that file tree, one file has execute permissions: ls -l files/gitserver/mkrepo/bin/mkrepo -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 4735 Jul 7 2014 files/gitserver/mkrepo/bin/mkrepo However, the file resource installs all plain files with 0644 permissions. If I change the permissions on that file and rerun the puppet agent, it will change them back. I can add a file resource for that particular file, but surely the fileserver should honor the source permissions?
