Bug #10857: File resource fails for root(/) directory.
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/10857

Author: Jason Smith
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal

Category: file
Target version: Telly
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.0
Keywords: 
Branch: 


I know this is probably an extreme edge case, but I recently noticed that this 
fails:

file { '/': ensure => directory }

with the error:  Parameter path failed: File paths must be fully qualified, not 
'' at /tmp/test.pp:1

A little background, This comes from a larger module that I have which uses the 
lvm module to create additional or grow existing filesystems on a server. The 
file resource is used to make sure the mount point exists before using the 
mount resource to manage /etc/fstab and mount the filesystem. I noticed that if 
I tried to use my custom module to grow the root(/) filesystem that I got the 
error above. Is the / being removed to make it an empty path as a result of 
some code to try and remove trailing slashes from paths?
