[Nick Maludy (Jira)]

Title: Message Title

Nick Maludy updated an issue   Puppet / PUP-11034 Unable to 'mask' a 'static' systemd service Change By: Nick Maludy *Puppet Version: 7.6.1* *Puppet Server Version: N/A* *OS Name/Version: CentOS 8.3* I'm trying to translate the following command into Puppet: {code:java}systemctl stop systemd-coredump.socket systemctl mask systemd-coredump.socket{code} The Puppet code i've written to do this is: {code:java}service { 'systemd-coredump.socket':    ensure => 'stopped',    enable => 'mask', }{code} *Desired Behavior:* I would expect the service to be stopped and masked. *Actual Behavior:* The service is a 'static' service on the system and is resulting in a debug log being printed: {code:java}debug - Puppet - Executing: '/bin/systemctl is-enabled -- systemd-coredump.socket'debug - Puppet - Unable to enable or disable static service systemd-coredump.socket {code} Running the systemctl commands manually, works just fine. Doing a little digging, i found the following code: [https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/blob/main/lib/puppet/provider/service/systemd.rb#L42-L56] The comment in the block is accurate, however a little misleading because 'static' services are allowed to be 'masked'.   Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.13.2#813002-sha1:c495a97) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
