Hi All, For some reason, I'm unable to manage cron resources on my CentOS5 server:
manifest: cron { "test": command => '/bin/true', user => 'root', hour => '1', } And when I try to run this via puppetmasterd: info: Caching catalog for ny-dev84.domain.com err: Could not prefetch package provider 'yum': Execution of '/usr/ local/bin/python /usr/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.8/puppet/provider/package/ yumhelper.py' returned 1: <type 'exceptions.AttributeError'> info: Applying configuration version '1264214417' notice: //crontab::puppet_runner/Cron[test]/ensure: created "-":5: bad command errors in crontab file, can't install. notice: Finished catalog run in 3.69 seconds There are two things here that confuse me. 1: what's the deal with the 'could not prefetch package provider' and 2: why does "/bin/true" result in "bad command"? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
