Incorrect Key name/value specified in windows_services.pp

[vijaytripathi]

Error: Cannot write to the registry. The parent key does not exist. detail: (The system cannot find the file specified.) Puppet Error ID: AC99C7C6-98D 6-4E91-A75E-970F4064BF95

Issue1: In windows_services.pp file registery key is created using this code

registry_key { "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\${name}\PythonClass": ensure => $ensure, require => Exec["create-python-${name}-windows-service"], }

After execution of this code registery key is created with name "nova-compute" without any sub key "PythonClass" as mentioned in code. Is it ok? or Pythonclass is supposed to be value name in registry_value section and mentioned here as typo?

Issue2: IF PythonClass is sub-key of nova-compute then , value name to be set of registery key "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\nova-compute\PythonClass" is missing

registry_value { "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\${name}\PythonClass\": ensure => $ensure, type => string, data => $script, require => Registry_key["HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\${name}\PythonClass"], } Can you please tell name of value to be set of this registery key "HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\nova-compute\PythonClass"

I get the issue, subkey "PythonClass" not getting created. Although as per registery module readme it says that parent key and child key both would be created

https://forge.puppetlabs.com/puppetlabs/registry#what-registry-affects If Puppet creates a registry key, Windows will automatically create any necessary parent registry keys that do not already exist.
