Duplicate of #6907. ---------------------------------------- Bug #9391: Providers stop puppet working if binaries can't be found even if they are in the catalog to be installed. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9391 Author: Ashley Penney Status: Duplicate Priority: Normal Assignee: Ashley Penney Category: provider Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.9 Keywords: Branch: I just decided to check out the vcsrepo module and ran into a reoccurring and annoying bug within providers that keeps biting me. The vcsrepo{} I added in my module has provider => svn. I also include a package { "subversion" } in the same module. However, because the provider checks BEFORE the catalog is run it immediately fails with no possibility for puppet to fix it. I would like for puppet to either run the rest of the resources then attempt to rerun the ones requiring a specific provider or check the catalog to see if the provider requirement would be filled by a resource and then delay execution until that is met. (I guess these goals are the same but the second is more elegant in that it actually checks for a solution rather than just delaying and trying again hopefully). My mysql module does this too on new boxes - it won't do the package{mysql} because it tries to parse the mysql lib/ stuff up front. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
