Hi All,
I have defined the following module to untar/unzip and copy the Maven
distributable to a convenient location:
class apache-maven-v3 {
exec { "/bin/tar xzf /etc/puppet/modules/apache-maven-v3/files/
apache-maven-3.0.3-bin.tar.gz":
cwd => "/usr/local/java",
creates => "/usr/local/java/apache-maven-3.0.3",
}
...
}
The above definition executes perfectly however in order to keep the
module portable I want to replace the absolute path to the .gz file
with a puppet:/// URI e.g.
exec { "/bin/tar xzf
puppet:///modules/apache-maven-v3/apache-maven-3.0.3-bin.tar.gz":
When I change the class to use the puppet:/// URI I get the following
error:
(/Stage[main]/Apache-maven-v3/Exec[/bin
/tar xzf puppet:///modules/apache-maven-v3/apache-maven-3.0.3-bin.tar.gz]/return
s) change from notrun to 0 failed: /bin/tar xzf puppet:///modules/apache-maven-v
3/apache-maven-3.0.3-bin.tar.gz returned 2 instead of one of [0] at /
etc/puppet/
modules/apache-maven-v3/manifests/init.pp:11
It appears to me that the puppet:/// URI is not being resolved in the
exec and this is causing the tar command to operate on the literal
path puppet:///modules/apache-maven-v3/apache-maven-3.0.3-bin.tar.gz
which of course doesn't exist.
Looking at the docs I can't see any examples of puppet:/// being used
in this way, is there anyway I can obtain the resolved absolute path
to pass this in to my exec? Failing that it there a standard approach
for combining a puppet:/// URI with an exec?
Cheers,
Edd
