Error on using puppet resource rabbitmq_user about puppet-rabbitmq HOT 6 CLOSED

Yes ... this pops up in another unexpected way as well:

When using a Rabbitmq_user['something'] -> as a 'before' relationship, the same error occurs.

If the user is being created, all is well. If it already exists, then the puppet apply fails.

I'm able to verify this, even with current master.

https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/MODULES-3084 seems to be the same issue as well.

I think #598 (rework of #460 by @mpolenchuk) might end up fixing this if I can get it to work.

The actual issue seems to be unrelated to those two. It's actually much simpler. The code that's trying to ensure that you don't create a user without defining a password is also preventing puppet resource rabbitmq_user from working.

  validate do
    if self[:ensure] == :present && !self[:password]
      raise ArgumentError, 'must set password when creating user' unless self[:password]
    end
  end

Closing via #598 (I'll cherry-pick the fix for this or break it out into another pull if that doesn't get merged for some reason).
