Issue #12789 has been updated by Chris Price. File test3.pp added File test4.pp added Status changed from Investigating to Needs More Information Assignee changed from Chris Price to Thomas Sturm
So... my test1.pp and test2.pp manifests seem to behave the same way via master/agent as they do via apply. My next guess was that maybe this is something specific to either the 'file' resource type, or the 'ensure' parameter, or both... so I created test3.pp and test4.pp, which are based off of your code above. Based on your description I'd expect: 1. test3.pp does not create the file via 'apply' 2. test3.pp does not create the file via master/agent 3. test4.pp does not create the file via 'apply' 4. test4.pp DOES create the file via master/agent However, in all 4 permutations, I am not seeing the file get created. Any ideas what I'm doing differently from you? ---------------------------------------- Bug #12789: Overwriting a class that's using a definition fails https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12789#change-58744 Author: Thomas Sturm Status: Needs More Information Priority: High Assignee: Thomas Sturm Category: class inheritance Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.7.11 Keywords: Branch: Hello, please apologize if this was reported elsewhere already... We have class X that's included in the default node. The class uses a defined type of the same class with ensure => present. We also have class Y that inherits X and sets this defined type ensure => absent. If we assign Y to a node via another class or via ENC, it does nothing. The defined type is still ensure => present. However, if we assign class Y via a node definition, it works, the define is ensure => absent. Overwriting native puppet types always works, but as soon as you are overwriting a definition, the overwrite does just nothing. If this is supposed to work, I think we hit a bug here...
