Issue #14599 has been updated by Moses Mendoza. Status changed from Merged - Pending Release to Closed Target version set to 2.7.19
Released in 2.7.19rc1. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14599: file resource should handle ENOTDIR https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14599#change-68161 Author: Christopher Wood Status: Closed Priority: Normal Assignee: Stefan Schulte Category: file Target version: 2.7.19 Affected Puppet version: 2.7.13 Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/805 In the "def stat" portion of the file type's file.rb, ENOTDIR (see stat(2)) isn't handled. This leads to the following: $ cat /tmp/t1.pp file { '/tmp/xx/yy/zz/1': ensure => absent, } $ ls /tmp/xx ls: cannot access /tmp/xx: No such file or directory $ puppet apply /tmp/t1.pp notice: Finished catalog run in 0.02 seconds $ touch /tmp/xx $ puppet apply /tmp/t1.pp err: /Stage[main]//File[/tmp/xx/yy/zz/1]: Could not evaluate: Not a directory - /tmp/xx/yy/zz/1 notice: Finished catalog run in 0.02 seconds Mailing list discussion: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/puppet-users/4rk31Q1IzNY/discussion Editorially: I'm sure what *should* be happening here when there's ENOTDIR. On the one hand it seems that the ensure => absent portion above should sensibly return success because the full path doesn't exist. In this case an ENOTDIR indicates success. On the other hand, if I expected only directories in my path but there was a non-directory inode, perhaps I need to re-examine my assumptions about the system in question. In this case ENOTDIR indicates a problem. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
