Strange Issue with Symlink

[jbrown]

I'm seeing a strange issue with symlinks in Puppet 2.7.19. 

  File {

    ensure   => directory,

    owner    => apache,

    group    => apache,

  }

    file { "/mnt/${site_name}":

      mode => 0660,

    }

    mount { "/mnt/${site_name}":

      ensure => mounted,

      atboot => true,

      device => "${drupal_nfs_host}:${drupal_nfs_vol_root}",

      fstype => "nfs",

      options => "rw,vers=3,timeo=60,nosuid",

      require => File["/mnt/${site_name}"],

    }

    file { "/var/www/${site_name}/${drupal_shared_reldir}":

      ensure  => link,

      target  => "/mnt/${site_name}",

      require => [Mount["/mnt/${site_name}"], File["/var/www/${site_name}/${drupal_shared_reldir}"]],

    }

I run the agent on my node. The mount directory and mount point are setup correctly. However, the symlink is completely ignored. (I've replaced actual paths with the vars used above for privacy.)

notice: /File[/mnt/${site_name}]/ensure: created

notice: /Stage[main]//Node[NODE_NAME]/Market[${site_name}]/Mount[/mnt/${site_name}]/ensure: defined 'ensure' as 'mounted'

info: FileBucket adding {md5}fa596fe1bd0cf2b5a3205e605b02a259

info: /Stage[main]//Node[NODE_NAME]/Market[${site_name}]/Mount[/mnt/${site_name}]: Scheduling refresh of Mount[/mnt/${site_name}]

info: /Stage[main]//Node[NODE_NAME]/Market[${site_name}]/Mount[/mnt/${site_name}]: Scheduling refresh of Mount[/mnt/${site_name}]

notice: Finished catalog run in 13.16 seconds

As you can see, there were no messages related to File["/var/www/${site_name}/${drupal_shared_reldir}"].

The crazy part is that a test link does work.

  file { "/tmp/test-link":

  }

  file { "/tmp/link":

    ensure => link,

    target => "/tmp/test-link",

    require => File["/tmp/test-link"],

  }

Any thoughts on what's happening? It seems odd that there are no error messages.

Thanks,

Please disregard the original post. I found the issue.

I had the following incorrect require line in the link resource:

      require => [Mount["/mnt/${site_name}"], File["/var/www/${site_name}/${drupal_shared_reldir}"]],

It should be

      require => Mount["/mnt/${site_name}"],

Cheers,
