Command ($which curator ) inside cron is not parse

[lud97x]

Hello,

I am using ubuntu 16.04 , the cron doesn't work because it doesn't parse the 'which curator' command

CRON[1790]: (curator) CMD ($(which curator) /etc/curator/action_purge_syslog_linux_over_30days.yml> /dev/null 2>&1)
CRON[1789]: (curator) CMD ($(which curator) /etc/curator/action_purge_filebeat_over_30days.yml> /dev/null 2>&1)

So I set the full path of the curator binary inside job.pp:

cron { "curator_${name}":
ensure => $ensure,
command => "/usr/local/bin/curator ${::curator::config_path}/action_${action}.yml> /dev/null 2>&1",
hour => $hour,
minute => $minute,
month => $month,
monthday => $monthday,
user => $user,
weekday => $weekday,
}

And now it's works

CRON[25048]: (curator) CMD (/usr/local/bin/curator /etc/curator/action_purge_filebeat_over_30days.yml> /dev/null 2>&1)

I've tested it on Ubuntu 16.04 as well and it works fine. I believe the error is due to something else. 🤔

Probably due to docker image not having which package installed?

You should now be able to configure it yourself :
