The best way to ensure we completely address this would be to just clear the File Sync cache. To do so:

1. On the master, shutdown the pe-puppetserver service: service pe-puppetserver stop

2. On the master, delete all the files inside /etc/puppetlabs/code, and /etc/puppetlabs/code-staging including all hidden files, leaving only the production environment:

# find /etc/puppetlabs/code -mindepth 1 -delete
# mkdir -p /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production
# mv /etc/puppetlabs/code-staging /etc/puppetlabs/code-staging.old

# Run a command saved as a variable:

exec { 'some arbitrary command':
  command => $desired_command,

# Run a command inside a class, with a parameter to control the command:

Running the Puppet Debugging Kit on Windows

Up and running with Vagrant, VirtualBox and the Puppet Debugging Kit on Windows.

Why?

Running the Puppet Debugging Kit on Windows is fairly straightforward, in that the setup process is nearly identical to setup on OSX and Linux.

However, the typical "Vagrant on Windows" caveats apply.

I've attempted to cover the entire setup process here, going from a system with no virtualization tools installed, to a working Vagrant + Oscar + Puppet Debugging Kit environment

I had a hell of a time getting my volume keys to work in i3 4.12 + Ubuntu 16.04

Mute toggle worked, but the unmute + volume raise/lower would only unmute master, and not "speaker".

The following worked to ensure that raising or lowering the volume also unmutes master AND speaker.

bindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec amixer -q -D pulse -c 1 -q sset Master 2dB+ unmute && amixer -D pulse set Master unmute
bindsym XF86AudioLowerVolume exec amixer -q -D pulse -c 1 -q sset Master 2dB- unmute && amixer -D pulse set Master unmute
bindsym XF86AudioMute exec amixer -q -D pulse sset Master toggle
