Issue #11563 has been updated by Josh Cooper.
Are you running puppet as `Administrator`, `LocalSystem`, something else? Can you install setacl from <http://helgeklein.com/setacl/documentation/command-line-version-setacl-exe/> and run puppet with this manifest: <pre> file { 'c:\download\setup_env.bat': ensure => file, content => template("mca/setup_env.bat.erb"), } </pre> And then run this command: <pre> setacl -ot file -on c:\download\setup_env.bat -actn list -lst "f:tab;w:o,g,d;i:y" </pre> This won't change anything on your system -- just `list` the DACL for the file you're trying to execute. It maybe that you need to explicitly set the mode (though that should only be necessary if you are trying to execute a file you don't own, since the owner always has `FULL_CONTROL`): <pre> file { 'c:\download\setup_env.bat': ensure => file, mode => 0755, content => template("mca/setup_env.bat.erb"), } </pre> ---------------------------------------- Bug #11563: Can not create file in Windows 2008 https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/11563 Author: Feifei Jia Status: Investigating Priority: Normal Assignee: Josh Cooper Category: windows Target version: 2.7.x Affected Puppet version: 2.7.9 Keywords: Branch: I've tested Puppet client in Windows 2008 recently, on EC2 instance. One problem I found is that, after I a first time successfully run, I encountered "CreateProcess() failed" error: <pre> info: Caching catalog for ip-xxxxxxxx.ec2.internal info: Applying configuration version '1324881415' err: /Stage[main]//Node[ip-xxxxxxxx.ec2.internal]/Foo::Set_role[chrome]/File [c:\download\setup_env.bat]: Could not evaluate: CreateProcess() failed: The system cannot find the file specified. notice: /Stage[main]//Node[ip-xxxxxxxx.ec2.internal]/Foo::Set_role[chrome]/E xec[setup_env.bat]: Dependency File[c:\download\setup_env.bat] has failures: tru e warning: /Stage[main]//Node[ip-xxxxxxxx.ec2.internal]/Foo::Set_role[chrome]/ Exec[setup_env.bat]: Skipping because of failed dependencies </pre> Related manifests: <pre> class foo { define set_role ($role) { file { 'c:\download\setup_env.bat': ensure => file, provider => windows, content => template("foo/setup_env.bat.erb"), } exec { 'setup_env.bat': cwd => 'c:\download', path => 'c:\download;%PATH%', provider => windows, require => File['c:\download\setup_env.bat'], } } } </pre> When I remove c:\download\setup_env.bat file, I can retrieve this file from Puppet master, and execute well.
