Could not find init script for 'vmware-tools-services' #38

Open cybacolt opened 8 years ago

cybacolt commented 8 years ago

on Ubuntu 12.04.5 LTS:

err: /Stage[main]/Vmwaretools/Service[vmware-tools-services]: Could not evaluate: Could not find init script for 'vmware-tools-services'

looks like vmware-tools v5 on 12.04 is now using Upstart.

adding 'provider' => 'upstart' to the service stanza fixes it, but this needs to be implemented properly.

@cybacolt You say that "vmware-tools v5" is using upstart, but which 5.x version? VMware has 5.0, 5.1, and 5.5. I know that they started usig upstart on RHEL under vmware-tools 5.1 and newer. Is that the case with Precise?
