Title: Message Title

Alejandro Ramirez created an issue   Puppet / PUP-3762 File with "source" array, not working if first item does not exist Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 3.7.3 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2014/12/12 6:52 AM Environment: Debian 7.7, puppet installed from puppetlabs repo Priority: Normal Reporter: Alejandro Ramirez Hello, I just noticed that : "${catalina_base}/conf/context.xml": ensure => file, owner => $owner, group => $group, mode => '0644', source => [$context_source_file,'puppet:///modules/lcl_tomcat7/context.xml']; Does not work if "$context_source_file" does not exist. The documentation states that the behaviour is to try the next file, but instead I get this error and the other file does not get used. Error: /Stage[main]/Profile::Search::Dev/Lcl_search::Instance[search]/Lcl_solr::Instance[search]/Lcl_tomcat7::Instance[search]/File[/srv/search/conf/context.xml]: Could not evaluate: Could not retrieve file metadata for puppet:///lcl_tomcat7/nonexistent: Error 400 on SERVER: Not authorized to call find on /file_metadata/lcl_tomcat7/nonexistent with {:links=>"manage", :source_permissions=>"use"} Wrapped exception: Error 400 on SERVER: Not authorized to call find on /file_metadata/lcl_tomcat7/nonexistent with {:links=>"manage", :source_permissions=>"use"} Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.7#6337-sha1:2ed701e) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
