Issue #11968 has been updated by Steve Shipway.
exec { "etc-services-nrpe":
command=>"echo 'nrpe 5666/tcp nagios netsaint' >>
/etc/services",
unless=>"/bin/egrep -i '^nrpe' /etc/services 2>/dev/null",
user=>'root', timeout=>4, cwd=>"/etc",
path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/sbin"
}
The path you mention, /etc/puppet/dev/modules/nrpe/manifests/init.pp is the
file containing the exec resource (in the 'nrpe' class). It would probably be
more elegant to create a 'services' define to control the /etc/services file
but we only need it for this one case...

Bug #11968: Errors from Exec resources when source param of a File resource is
a softlink

If the location pointed to by source=> in a file{} resource is a softlink, and
you do not have links=>follow, then you get some wierd errors relating to
getcwd appearing. This is understandable but it should probably give a more
helpful error message.
I have reliably duplicated this with
file { "/usr/local/nrpe":
ensure=>present, replace=>yes, recurse=>true, recurselimit=>2,
backup=>false, force=>true,
ignore=>'.svn',
owner=>root, group=>root, mode=>0755,
sourceselect=>all,
source=>[
"puppet:///modules/nrpe/plugins/$operatingsystem.$architecture",
],
}
If the puppet: link points to a softlink you get all the Exec errors about
getcwd. Replacing with a real directory, or using links=>follow, and all is OK.
err: /Stage[main]/Nrpe/File[/usr/local/nrpe]/ensure: change from directory
to link failed: Could not set 'link on ensure:
No such file or directory - getcwd at
/etc/puppet/dev/modules/nrpe/manifests/init.pp:92
err: /Stage[main]/Nrpe/Exec[etc-services-nrpe]: Could not evaluate: No such
file or directory - getcwd
All the additional errors are with Exec resources.
