The single qoutes are a relict from my different approaches to solve
the problem...
With and without them the same error occurs:
err: //allgemein::bigbrother/Exec[untar bb19c]/returns: change from
notrun to 0 failed: tar -jxf bb19c.tar.bz2 returned 2 instead of one
of [0] at /etc/puppet/modules/allgemein/manifests/bigbrother.pp:22
You want
command => "/bin/tar -C $somedirectory -jxf /path/to/bb19x.tar.bz2,
require => File["/path/to/bb19x.tar.bz2"];
or the require to whatever exec downloads that file.
My guess is that puppet executes tar from the from directory but
commands like
"cd /usr/local&& tar -jxf bb19c.tar.bz2"
or
"tar -jxf /usr/local/bb19c.tar.bz2"
also return that error...
cd is a shell built-in. Puppet uses exec functions in exec resources. To
use shell built-ins you need to do something like:
command => "/bin/bash -c 'pushd somedir && dosomething'",
