Description
With a puppet manifest similar to the following:
group { 'TestUsers':
|
ensure => 'present',
|
members => ['Administrators','tim'],
|
}
|
|
|
user { 'tim':
|
ensure => present,
|
password => '123Adc!dd',
|
groups => ['Administrators','Users'],
|
}
|
|
The message against 4.1.0 and below will look like the following:
Error: Could not resolve name: tim
|
Error: /Stage[main]/Main/Group[TestUsers]: Could not evaluate: Puppet::Util::Log requires a message
|
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/User[tim]/ensure: created
|
In Puppet 4.2.x and above (the message will look like the following - based on PUP-4386 fixing the messaging):
Notice: Compiled catalog for windows.vm in environment production in 3.40 seconds
|
Error: Could not resolve name: tim
|
Error: /Stage[main]/Main/Group[TestUsers]/members: change from to BUILTIN\Administrators,tim failed: Could not resolve name: tim
|
Notice: /Stage[main]/Main/User[tim]/ensure: created
|
This is easily resolved by ensuring that all users are ensured prior to ensuring the group, but it would be nice to autorequire on such a setting.
