Issue #5656 has been updated by Nigel Kersten.

Status changed from Accepted to Rejected

I don't believe we've ever claimed dcron support. I'm going to reject this bug, 
and if people want support for dcron, file a feature request.

Bug #5656: cron provider fails with dcron on Linux
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5656

Author: Daniel Pittman
Status: Rejected
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: cron
Target version: 
Affected Puppet version: development
Keywords: 
Branch: 


Tested on Gentoo Linux, with the 'dcron' ebuild, the following error turns up:

    notice: /Cron[crontest]/ensure: created
    crontab V3.2
    crontab file <opts>  replace crontab from file
    crontab -    <opts>  replace crontab from stdin
    crontab -u user      specify user
    crontab -l [user]    list crontab for user
    crontab -e [user]    edit crontab for user
    crontab -d [user]    delete crontab for user
    crontab -c dir       specify crontab directory
    cron { 'crontest':
        target => 'cron-test-1719',
        ensure => 'present',
        command => '/bin/true',
        user => 'cron-test-1719'
    }

It is also noteworthy that dcron does not include support for setting
environment variables and all.
