any chance you have defined a second user that uses the same group?
your defined type is not going to work in that case for sure. Remember
you can only declare a resource once in any manifest that gets applied
to particular node.
with your code in users::add_user if you define a second user 'bar'
that uses the same secondary group 'test', you are going to define the
resource group { 'test': } a second time, which will fail with a
duplicate declaration error.
You could check if the group test is already defined:
if !defined(Group['test']) {
group { 'test':}
}
but for this to work you have to move the creation of the secondary group
into a separate defined type (which i would recommend nevertheless):
define users::add_group {
group,
if !defined(Group[$group]) {
group { $group:
ensure => present,
}
}
}
this has the additional advantage that you could extend the defined
type users::add_group with more parameters (ensure, gid, you name it).
