Doing the following on RHEL 7.1:

# chef-shell 
loading configuration: none (standalone session)
Session type: standalone
Loading..done.

This is the chef-shell.
 Chef Version: 12.1.1
 http://www.chef.io/
 http://docs.chef.io/

run `help' for help, `exit' or ^D to quit.

Worked fine previous to Chef 12.1.0. Now gets:

This way also fails:

package '/var/chef/cache/chef-server-core-12.0.5-1.el6.x86_64.rpm'

👍 Seeing the same thing on CentOS 7

Yum was failing to install packages when a source was provided

This fixes #3059

The package provider was expecting that candidate_versions be
populated, however in the case where a source was being provided,
it the version was being set to nil.

Planning to patch this in 12.1.2 with #3065 and take on #3075 as tech debt for 12.2.0.

This should be fixed in 12.1.2.

This is not fixed in 12.1.2, nor is it corrected in 12.2.1. Works properly in 12.0.3. I'm on Centos 6.5.

My use case is upgrading couchbase, so I install couchbase on a VM and attempt to upgrade it using chef. I see:

[2015-04-23T12:57:41+00:00] DEBUG: yum_package[/tmp/kitchen/cache/couchbase-server-enterprise_2.5.2_x86_64.rpm] checking rpm status

👍 What @unhuman said. Seems to be broken still @irvingpop

@unhuman that looks like a different bug related to upgrades. @bdwyertech are you also upgrading an existing package?

Original bug:

[2015-03-11T14:39:17-04:00] DEBUG: yum_package[chef-server-core-12.0.5-1] installed version: [nil] candidate version: (none)

Your output:

[2015-04-23T12:57:41+00:00] DEBUG: yum_package[/tmp/kitchen/cache/couchbase-server-enterprise_2.5.2_x86_64.rpm] installed version: ["2.5.0-1059"] candidate version: 2.5.2-1154

@btm, In my case, yes, it would be an upgrade. Deployment works fine the first time around, but the new RPM is not installed on a successive Chef run, although the local file exists. Code looks something like this.

# => Download NXLog RPM
remote_file File.join(Chef::Config[:file_cache_path], File.basename(node['nxlog']['url'])) do
  source node['nxlog']['url']
  checksum node['nxlog']['checksum']
  action :create
  notifies :install, 'package[nxlog]', :immediately
end

# => Install NXLog from RPM
package 'nxlog' do
  source File.join(Chef::Config[:file_cache_path], File.basename(node['nxlog']['url']))
  action :nothing
end

Since it's a different bug, do I need to start a new thread to get the issue I'm seeing managed?

Thanks for following up!
