Issue #3220 has been updated by Felix Frank.
Hmm, this one hasn't seen much popularity it appears. I made a silly little workaround, will commit once the latest github DDoS falters. ---------------------------------------- Bug #3220: cron provider doesn't purge puppet-created cron resources correctly. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/3220#change-87501 * Author: Rob Terhaar * Status: Accepted * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: cron * Target version: * Affected Puppet version: 0.25.4 * Keywords: * Branch: ---------------------------------------- Hello- Bit of background first, we're using CentOS5 machines with puppet/puppetmaster 25.4 from EPEL packages. For some reason that I cannot determine, the following code[1] (which works on our development system) fails[2] on our staging system: [1] class crontab::cleaner { resources { cron: purge => true } } Our intent is to remove all non-managed crontab entries. However, when I run puppetd --test, I receive this error: err: //crontab::cleaner/Resources[cron]: Failed to generate additional resources using 'generate': You must specify a name or title for resources --trace --debug --verbose on puppetmaster and on the puppetd client[3] do not give any further information about the problem.
