Issue #8430 has been updated by Jacob Helwig. Assignee changed from Jacob Helwig to Nigel Kersten
I don't think this actually has anything to do with the plans to clean up the type & provider system as a whole. ---------------------------------------- Bug #8430: Ubuntu Natty sysv services are not being enabled if they fail strict LSB checks https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8430 Author: Nick Moffitt Status: Needs Decision Priority: Normal Assignee: Nigel Kersten Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: sysvinit service debian Branch: Puppet 2.6.4 on an Ubuntu Natty Narwhal (11.04) host will not reliably start services with the debian provider. The debian.rb provider calls "update-rc.d $NAME enable", which errors out when a script does not meet strict LSB requirements. By contrast, calling "update-rc.d $NAME defaults" will issue the warning but then go ahead and make the relevant symlinks. The provider fails silently, without passing these warnings on up to puppet in any way that is visible. It would seem that since the goal of this provider is to assert an enabled state, "defaults" may be preferrable to "enable". -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
