Issue #6936 has been updated by Matthaus Owens. Target version set to 3.2.0
---------------------------------------- Bug #6936: AIX user provider fails if a gid is specified instead of a name. https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/6936#change-89594 * Author: Parker Johnson * Status: Merged - Pending Release * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: provider * Target version: 3.2.0 * Affected Puppet version: development * Keywords: AIX user provider puppet gid * Branch: ---------------------------------------- Several AIX providers (aixobject/user/group) were merged into the code a couple days ago. I just checked out from source and gave it a try on an AIX6.1 TL4 host. Most of it works (thank you! psyched to see puppet and AIX play nice), but if you specify a gid instead of a group name, the manifest errors. See below. I'll be happy to re-test if yall have a hard time finding an AIX host. :) <pre> [root@sfcloudap001 puppet]# cat modules/test/manifests/init.pp class test { group{'test_g': ensure => present, gid => 6969, } user{'test_u': ensure => present, uid => 99, gid => 6969, home => "/tmp/", } } [root@autobuild /]# puppet agent --test warning: iconv doesn't seem to support UTF-8/UTF-16 conversions info: Caching catalog for autobuild.gid.gap.com info: Applying configuration version '1301604374' notice: /Stage[main]/Test/Group[test_g]/ensure: created err: /Stage[main]/Test/User[test_u]/ensure: change from absent to present failed: Could not set 'present on ensure: undefined method `groupname_by_id' for # at /etc/puppet/modules/test/manifests/init.pp:13 notice: Finished catalog run in 2.89 seconds [root@autobuild /]# </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
