Hi all,
I'm clearly missing something here. I thought that if I had a
subscribe attribute on an exec resource, then that resource would run
regardless on any creates/unless, but that is not what I'm seeing.
I created a minimal test, shown below. As you can see:
- The file 'trigger' was changed, and Puppet noticed.
- The exec was 'refreshed' due to the dependency, but it didn't
actually run.
- Without the 'creates' file, the exec runs correctly.
Is this expected behaviour? From the docs it looks like a 'refresh' of
an exec should run the exec again, unless the 'refresh' attribute is
specified. (I tried that too, and it made no difference).
Thanks,
Graham
