exec {'test':
command => "/bin/ls /doesnotexit",
}
fails as expected:
Error: /bin/ls /doesnotexit returned 1 instead of one of [0]
Error: /Stage[main]//Exec[test]/returns: change from notrun to 0 failed:
/bin/ls /doesnotexit returned 1 instead of one of [0]
However,
exec {'test':
command => "/bin/ls /doesnotexit; /bin/echo hello",
}
does not fail, because the last command did not return an error!
that's a problem, because there are many puppet modules which concatenate
several commands in one puppet exec, and they do not explicitly handle the
errors.
(inserting "set -e" at the head of the command line does not work, as it is
bash script specific)
*I think that, by default, the puppet exec resource should fail if any of
the "single commands" fail (as *
*in the second example).and if it is not by default, at least there should
be an option in puppet exec to do so (equivalent to "set -e" in bash)*
(tested on puppet 3.3.2)
