Issue #6916 has been reported by Ben Hughes. ---------------------------------------- Bug #6916: Document notifying services that don't have a valid process. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6916
Author: Ben Hughes Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: documentation Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Update http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html#service to properly convey that if a service is (for want of a better word) virtual, it needs a "hasstatus => true" or similar for it to be used with a subscribe => E.g. <pre> service { "network": ensure => running, subscribe => File [ "/etc/hostname.en0" ] } </pre> Won't work as it will try "ps -ef | grep network" which won't work. So it needs a hasstatus to find it's running, otherwise it will "Skipping restart; service is not running". -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
