Issue #14615 has been updated by Jeff McCune. Status changed from In Topic Branch Pending Review to Merged - Pending Release
summary: Merged into stable and master as d4ced36. This should be released in Puppet 3.2. Thanks again for the contribution! This fix resolves the issue where by puppet runs dangerous init scripts on Debian which affect the system while checking the state of the system. ---------------------------------------- Bug #14615: puppet resource service will kill your gentoo system https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14615#change-90140 * Author: Stefan Schulte * Status: Merged - Pending Release * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: service * Target version: 3.2.0 * Affected Puppet version: 2.7.14 * Keywords: gentoo, service customer * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1620 ---------------------------------------- If executing `puppet resource service` on gentoo, puppet will get a list of services from `/etc/init.d` and will issue `<initscript> status` on all of them. This will immediatly reboot your system and you will be greeted with a filesystem check afterwards. I consider this "not expected behaviour" ;-) This happens as soon as puppet reaches the following standard gentoo script <pre> # equery belongs /etc/init.d/reboot.sh * Searching for /etc/init.d/reboot.sh ... sys-apps/sysvinit-2.88-r3 (/etc/init.d/reboot.sh) </pre> which does not implement any switches <pre> # cat /etc/init.d/reboot.sh # Copyright 1999-2007 Gentoo Foundation # Distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 opts="-dpk" [ "${RC_DOWN_INTERFACE}" = "yes" ] && opts="${opts}i" /sbin/reboot "${opts}" 2>/dev/null # hmm, if the above failed, that's kind of odd ... # so let's force a reboot /sbin/reboot -f </pre> the gentoo service provider should have an exclude list of services like the redhat provider does. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
