The puppet error was:
err: Failed to apply catalog: Parameter source failed: Could not
understand source # This file managed by Puppet
Sorry for not seeing that error before...I kept looking at the "Bad URI"
error message which I posted in my original email. So anyway, it turns out
I was using 'source' instead of 'content' within my file declaration in my
manifest. My working file resource looks like this now:
file { "rsyslog.conf":
path => "/etc/rsyslog.conf",
owner => root,
group => root,
mode => 644,
content => template('syslog/rsyslog.conf.erb'),
require => Package["rsyslog"],
}
All good now. Thanks for the assistance, it gave me a few pointers on
troubleshooting templates and puppet manifests.
