[Puppet Users] service subscription to a concat managed file

[opticpow]

Hi All,

I'm using the 
ripienaar/concat<https://forge.puppetlabs.com/ripienaar/concat>module to manage 
a number of configuration files. Is it possible for a 
service to subscribe to the managed file so that when another module 
inserts a fragment, the service is restarted? 

Below is an example of what I'm trying to do. This fails with the  
/etc/sysctl.conf 
not being a valid resource reference for the subscription.

Thanks, Wayne.

class sysctl {
   $config = "/etc/sysctl.conf"

    service {
        'boot.sysctl':
            enable     => true,
            subscribe  => $config;
    }

    concat{
        $config:
            owner => root,
            group => root,
            mode  => '0444';
    }

    concat::fragment{
       "sysctl_header":
           target  => $config,
           source  => 'puppet:///modules/sysctl/header',
           order   => 01;

        "sysctl_body":
            target  => $config,
            source  => 'puppet:///modules/sysctl/standard',
            order   => 02;

        "sysctl_seperator":
            target  => $config,
            content => "#\n#\n#Below are managed by the sysctl puppet 
class\n#\n",
            order   => 03;

        "sysctl_footer":
            target  => $config,
            content => "#\n# End of puppet managed config\n#\n",
            order   => 99
   }

    define register($value,$comment="",$order=50) {

        concat::fragment{
            "services_fragment_${name}":
                target  => $sysctl::config,
                content => "${name} = ${value} \t\t# ${comment} 
[${order}]\n",
                order   => $order;
        }
    }
}
