Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Unknown resource type: '::coldfusion::site'

Question

So I am creating a module to manage some coldfusion servers.

I my init.pp I am trying to define a default site.

::coldfusion::site { 'default':
  site_number => $site_number,
}

The resource is defined in manifest\site.pp as

define coldfusion::site (
  $site_number = undef,
)
{
  include coldfusion
  include coldfusion::params
}

When I run the pdk test unit to run the unit tests for my module I get the error "Unknown resource type: '::coldfusion::site'".

I checked the spec fixtures modules and there is a symlink to the project files so it should be able to resolve the class.

Not sure whether the problem resides.

Answer 1

Thanks again to Matt for a basic but perhaps overly terse message, I spent some time looking over the docs again and after changing the resource definition from Class to Define and then removing the site_spec since it is no longer a class everything is working.

Answer 2

::coldfusion::site { 'default': site_number => $site_number,}

change above to

coldfusion::site { 'default': site_number => $site_number, }

:: can be used with top scope resources or change your define which should starts with ::
