What will puppet parser output when a file resource type with the same resource title/name is declared twice?

When a file resource type is declared with the same resource title or name more than once, the Puppet parser will process the first declaration and subsequently raise an error upon detecting the duplicate resource declaration. This behavior is in line with Puppet's design to ensure that resource declarations are unique within a given scope.

Having two declarations with the same title can lead to ambiguity about which attributes and settings should apply to the resource, so Puppet enforces uniqueness by generating an error. This error serves as a safeguard for users to review their manifests and make necessary corrections. Thus, Puppet maintains its resource management integrity by preventing conflicting definitions, ultimately enhancing the reliability of the configurations being applied.
