Issue #14071 has been updated by Josh Cooper. Status changed from Needs Decision to Accepted Affected Puppet version set to 2.7.6 Keywords set to windows exec
---------------------------------------- Bug #14071: Puppet::Util::execute semantics, on Windows, don't match POSIX or Puppet expectations. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14071#change-62806 Author: Daniel Pittman Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Josh Cooper Category: windows Target version: 3.X Affected Puppet version: 2.7.6 Keywords: windows exec Branch: A whole bunch of code in Puppet expects that you can pass a white-space separated string to `Puppet::Util::execute`, in an array, and have it figure out the executable that should be run. For example, in master, [`lib/puppet/resource/type_collection.rb:141`](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/master/lib/puppet/resource/type_collection.rb#L141) has this expectation - and on POSIX platforms, that is satisfied. The semantics should probably match on different platforms. This is the last remaining point blocking [external configuration version commands](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/master/spec/integration/parser/compiler_spec.rb#L21) working on Windows, despite what that file says. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
