So what's your confusion? This is about the clearest error message you
could hope for. Puppet complains that it requires the 'command' parameters
of Exec resources to be strings, but that that parameter of the Exec
resource entitled 'copy' is instead an array. It even provides the line
number in your manifest, and the parameter's assigned value indeed is an
array:

If you want to execute two separate `cp` commands, then you have several
options; among the best are:
- Split them into two Exec resources
- Join them into a single string via a semicolon, and add provider =>
'shell' to the Exec's parameters
- Create a script containing the commands, ensure it present on the
target machine, and execute the script vie an Exec resource
