Let's try a different approach. I think once you have a working
example you'll be able to mold it as desired. So here is a complete
working minimal example to try out.
If you use these files with the listed directory structure I'm pretty
certain you'll get a working solution. Then the lightbulb will go off
and you can modify as you see fit.
So here is the complete directory structure and all files under /etc/
puppet except for ssl related files/dirs
find /etc/puppet -type f -exec ls {} \;|grep -v ssl
/etc/puppet/fileserver.conf
/etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
/etc/puppet/modules/example_module/files/0910.txt
cat /etc/puppet/fileserver.conf
#/etc/puppet/fileserver.conf
[modules]
allow *
cat /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
#/etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp
file { "/tmp/0910.txt":
source => "puppet:///modules/example_module/0910.txt"
}
cat /etc/puppet/modules/example_module/files/0910.txt
whoo hoo, i'm 0910.txt!
So you'll notice that I'm using the generic term "modules" in the
fileserver.conf file instead of specifiying the module name. I
actually use this in my fileserver.conf. I've not ran into a reason
yet where I need to specify per module access permissions. Also the
"source" parameter in the file resource is called out like this
"puppet:///modules/example_module/0910.txt" which alleviates the need
to actually specify the server location. This notation means that the
file will be retrieved from server it contacted to get the manifest.
Anyhoo give this a whirl. I just tested it on my workstation and
spun up a new puppetmaster and client and it worked.
HTH. Derek.
