I use this pattern myself, something like file { "/tmp/test": ensure => directory, purge => true, recurse => true, recurselimit => 1, force => true; "/tmp/test/foo": ensure => directory; } For your particular case I suspect it's because your using the resource application, instead of agent or apply. The applied catalog doesn't have any other managed resources. Using the above snippet /tmp/ test/foo is ignored as a managed resource and can contain anything. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
