What exactly are you trying to do here? Are you trying to push logs from the
server to the clients? If not, why do you have "recurse => true"? If you are
trying to push permissions, this isn't a good way to do it. Sadly, Puppet is
slow enough that an exec with "chown -R mysql:mysql
/var/log/mysql/archived_logs" and a "chmod -R ..." would probably be much
faster.
One wild guess would be that a file in that folder is locked, and puppet is
blocking on trying to do something to that file.
