Try this:

Something like the following should work:
exec { subscribe-echo:
command => "/usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update && touch
/home/test ",
logoutput => false,
refreshonly => true,
subscribe => file["/etc/apt/sources.list"]
Hello Reno,
"require" is a metaparameter -- see:
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/MetaparameterReference#require
I believe the string proceeding the brackets is a "capitalized type" from:
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference
and the string inside the brackets is th
hi and thanks for the help
I use a more simple ( to me ) but effective solution:
exec { "touch /home/ciao":
cwd => "/home",
path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin"
}

You can't guarantee this exec won't run _before_ your other
Yes I agree,
for example what you will do if I want to run the touch command only
if /usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update has run without error?
exec { subscribe-echo:
command => "/usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update",
logoutput => false,
refreshonly => true
Use the onlyif parameter of the exec type:
exec { "touch /home/ciao:"
cwd => "/home",
path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin",
onlyif => "/usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update"
}
Note: the onlyif parameter only works this way with the
"exec" type (works a bit differently for the augeas type)

oops, quote in the wrong place, try:
exec { "touch /home/ciao":
cwd => "/home",
path => "/usr/bin:/usr/sbin:/bin",
onlyif => "/usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update"
}

op sorry I didn't see too! :-)
Btw
onlyif => "/usr/bin/apt-get -q -q update"
say to do that just after the apt-get command is lunched but what if
I want the contrary ... to run the command only if the apt-get fail to
run?

Hello Reno -
Use the "unless" exec parameter
http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/TypeReference#unless
With unless, (from the page): "If this parameter is set, then this exec
will run unless the command returns 0."
