Bug #4241: Cron type behavior change
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4241
Author: Cody Robertson
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: High
Assigned to:
Category: cron
Target version:
Affected version: 0.25.5
Keywords:
Branch:
I've recently re-deployed with a newer version (0.25.1 to 0.25.5) with the same
cron configuration and I'm now getting different results
The cron config in question:
<pre>
# From example http://docs.puppetlabs.com/references/stable/type.html
cron { "command":
command => "/bin/command",
user => "root",
hour => [0,12],
}
</pre>
In my previous setup (0.25.1) this produced the following in the crontab:
<pre>
# Puppet Name: command
0 0,12 * * * /bin/command
</pre>
Which according to the examples in the documentation is correct. However in my
0.25.5 deployment it produces:
<pre>
# Puppet Name: command
* 0,12 * * * /bin/command
</pre>
Clearly this will run every minute which is not the expected result. To fix
this all you have to do is specify the __minute__ parameter however this seems
like a potentially dangerous change (bug?).
