Hello.
In testing a potential upgrade from 2.6.7 -> 2.7.9 I ran across the following
'interesting' behaviour:
The relevant section of manifest (postfixconf::generic) looks like this:
file { "/etc/aliases":
mode => 444,
source => [
"puppet:///modules/postfixconf/$hostname-aliases","puppet:///modules/postfixconf/aliases"
],
owner => root,
group => root,
ensure => file,
before => Exec["newaliases"],
}
... And the result of a 'puppet agent --test --debug --noop ... is this:
notice: /Stage[main]/Postfixconf::Generic/File[/etc/aliases]/ensure:
current_value absent, should be directory (noop)
info: /Stage[main]/Postfixconf::Generic/File[/etc/aliases]: Scheduling refresh
of Exec[newaliases]
notice: /Stage[main]/Postfixconf::Generic/Exec[newaliases]: Would have
triggered 'refresh' from 1 events
The server is currently running as a simple webrick instance, prior to testing
with our existing Nginx/Unicorn setup.
Both machines are running Lenny.
I imagine it might make more sense to attempt upgrade via 2.6.13 and have that
running for a while?
I am also probably missing something blindingly obvious...
