Hi Jeffrey,
You cannot override the default parameter to be undef, but you can
override the service resource's behaviour with a resource collector[0].
It's less than ideal because you have to know the name of the service,
but something like this:
class{'apache':}
Service <|title == 'apache'|> {
noop => true,
}
should work. You can alternatively search by the class tag, but be sure
it has no unintended side effects.
Cheers,
David

Hello,
I apologize in advance if this question is redundant.
I'm using puppet version 2.7.11 (because that's what Ubuntu 12.04 LTS
has to offer) and I'd like to override a class default parameter with
'undef'. For example, the puppetlabs 'apache' module (version
0.10.0) sets 'ensure => running' for service 'apache' by default. I
do not what puppet to attempt starting or stopping apache, so I'm
trying the following (which does not work):
class {
'apache': service_ensure => undef;
}
The above gives me the default 'ensure => running' for the 'apache'
service. Any idea how I can express 'ensure => undef' when
declaring the apache class in my manifest?
Could suppose I could always hack the 'apache' module, but would
prefer not to.
Thanks,
Jeffrey
