I changed the template to output value.class: proto String dev String persist-tun Symbol nobind Symbol resolv-retry String comp-lzo String user String group String persist-key Symbol cert String key String ca String ns-cert-type String verb String log-append String script-security String plugin String up String down String After further investigation this happend with deep_merge, because without: proto String dev String persist-tun NilClass nobind NilClass resolv-retry String compress NilClass comp-lzo String user String group String persist-key NilClass cert String key String ca String ns-cert-type String verb String log-append String script-security String plugin NilClass up String down String Without the deep_merge "if @openvpnConf[parameter]" works as expected. helmut@h2786452:~$ puppet -V 4.10.12 helmut@h2786452:~$ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
