You could use $name here instead of $type,

Now puppet says  "Cannot reassign variable name..."

Fixed now :)
Just replaced $type (is used by puppet) with $logtype and used $name for the files.

But my last problem ist the template.
I'm using <%= scope.lookupvar('oevd_opendj::logtype') %> and puppet writes  file1file2file3file4
How can i resolve that?

You should iterate on logtype.
eg.
<% env_settings.each do |env_setting| -%>
<%= env_setting %>
<% end -%>

That should help.

Thanks.
But i think there is a problem now:
$InputFilename /opt/app/logs/<%= logtype %>

I have to replace <%= logtype %> with the current logtype
eg.
if puppet create the errors.conf file so $InputFilename should be /opt/appt/errors.
scope.lookupvar('oevd_opendj::name') %> does not work.

ok fixed now ;)
