Re: [Puppet Users] Puppet can't start service (dropbox) but init.d command works manually
Ashley,
Thanks for reporting the solution. I was just struggling with the same odd
behavior. My setup automatically inserts "puppet managed" comments at the
top of all templates, but this breaks init scripts (at least in Debian).

This was failing for me because the init.d script needed a #!/bin/sh at the top
of it. Puppet was getting an "Exec Format Error" when it tried to run it.
11008 execve("/etc/init.d/dropbox", ["/etc/init.d/dropbox", "status"], [/* 23
vars */]) = -1 ENOEXEC (Exec format error)

I had the same problem when running ssh-keygen via an exec. It ran fine from the CLI but not via Puppet. In my case it turned out that SELinux had been left enabled, so that's one thing to check. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.

Try this on the command line:
puppet resource service dropbox ensure=running -d

Try the "start" command with a clean environment. Side question: When you're trying that, is the service actually stopped? Is puppet deducing that much correctly?

[Puppet Users] Puppet can't start service (dropbox) but init.d command works manually
I'm using Dropbox's command-line daemon on one of our machines and
want to use Puppet to keep it running. The dropbox service is already
installed and allows me to successfully execute /etc/init.d/dropbox
[start/stop/restart/service]. Here's my code:
class dropbox::service {
service { "dropbox":
ensure => running,
}
}
I get the following syslog error when this runs:
(/Stage[main]/Dropbox::Service/Service[dropbox]/ensure) change from
stopped to running failed: Could not start Service[dropbox]: Execution
of '/etc/init.d/dropbox start' returned 1: at /etc/puppet/modules/
dropbox/manifests/init.pp:14
However, if I run the above command manually, it works fine and
returns 0:
root@webhost:~# /etc/init.d/dropbox start ; echo $?
Starting dropbox...
0
Any ideas why puppet can't start the dropbox daemon?
