Title: Message Title

Ed Hargin created an issue   Puppet / PUP-3728 Cron type uses incorrect month when month name is provided Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 3.7.3 Assignee: Kylo Ginsberg Components: Types and Providers Created: 2014/12/03 4:59 AM Environment: RHEL 6.2 cronie-anacron-1.4.4-7.el6.x86_64 cronie-1.4.4-7.el6.x86_64 Priority: Normal Reporter: Ed Hargin {{ cron { 'demo cron job': command => 'echo test', user => 'root', hour => '1', minute => '0', month => 'December', monthday => ['3-15'], } }} This should create a cronjob like this: 0 1 3-15 12 * echo test Instead it creates a cronjob like this: 0 1 3-15 11 * echo test Note that this creates a cronjob for the 11th month, November, rather than the 12th. Cron counts months from 1-12, rather than 0-11. Each month appears to be month number minus 1. If you give it "January" as a month, you get an invalid cron entry, which is not created.
