service top parameter seems to be ignored

[Vincent Louviaux]

Hello,

I am trying to disable a process , but the stop parameter seems to be ignored
from the output of puppetd -tv :
..
err: /:main/sastools/Service[cfexecd]/ensure: change from running to stopped failed: Execution of '/sbin/service cfexecd stop' returned 1: cfexecd: unrecognized service
..

from the manifests :
    service  { cfexecd:
         stop=>"/usr/bin/killall cfexecd",
         ensure => stopped,
    }




# puppetd --version
0.24.7
on  Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 6)




A bug ?

Do you really have those asterisks in there, or did you add them for
emphasis?

Remember you're a Womble.

I ran into this problem as well.

I ended up having to set my 'provider' to 'base' and then specify
everything manually.

Ok I have add
provider=>"base",
