Issue #4328 has been updated by Thomas Sturm.
I'm on Debian squeeze with puppetmaster 2.6.2 ---------------------------------------- Bug #4328: modifying user fails if user is logged in https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4328 Author: Klavs Klavsen Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: Thomas Sturm Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 0.25.5 Keywords: Branch: Just noticed (on Ubuntu 10.04 - probably valid for more OS'es) - that puppet failed to change a users homedir (the nagios user in this case) - and usermod failed to do so, because the user was logged in (the nrpe service was running). To fix this, one way would be to have a "pre-exec" and "post-exec" hook - which in this case, would be to stop and start the relevant service. or perhaps some "obstruction" parameter - where one could define the Service["nrpe"] as an obstruction (which would mean puppet would stop it before and start it again after - if it was indeed stopped by puppet beforehand). -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
