Issue #86 has been updated by eric sorenson.
I feel like the fact that there are edge cases that might not be handled correctly has stymied implementation of the most common case (create directories up to the specified one with the ownership/perms that are specified) and it's making a lot of things way more difficult than it needs to be. I get asked incredulously at least a couple times a month by other SAs I'm introducing to puppet "You mean there's no way to 'mkdir -p' an arbitrary path?" Any chance we could machete through the brambles and get a caveat-laden feature in? ---------------------------------------- Feature #86: Directory creation fails if parent directory does not exist http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/86 Author: Redmine Admin Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: Category: file Target version: unplanned Patch: None Affected version: 0.24.7 Keywords: feature Branch: I tried file {"/usr/local/share/puppet/sopext/facter" : ensure => directory, recurse => true } but get erros that the parent diretories are not available. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
