Issue #14344 has been updated by James Patterson.
Yes that's right: I suspect the problem is that puppet is discarding changes it plans to make because a puppet.conf update is triggering a puppet restart. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14344: File being removed- three times https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14344#change-63357 Author: James Patterson Status: Needs More Information Priority: Normal Assignee: James Patterson Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: I have a strange bug which I have reproduced three times on a test system: a file is not getting deleted when puppet says it is being deleted, and so puppet deletes it again two more times. After the third time it is gone: Stage['bootstrap'] -> Stage['main'] node 'test' { class 'blah': stage => 'bootstrap', } } class blah { file { '/path/to/file.txt': ensure => absent; } } RHEL6.2. SELinux enabled or permissive (doesn't make a difference). puppet-2.7.13-1.el6 on server and client. The problem with this bug is that it's not immediately obvious that something is broken: when puppet runs again it will eventually ensure the file is gone. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
