Chef never successfully completed! Any errors should be visible in the
output above. Please fix your recipes so that they properly complete.

I get the same error with lucid64. However, centos6 runs as expected. Did I miss something?

[karmi]

Weird; "works on my machine":

$ time vagrant up lucid64

VirtualBox Version: 4.1.10

[nrw]

The issue seems to be with the way this test: with(:owner, 'elasticsearch') works. When i vagrant ssh lucid32 and check file ownership, elasticsearch owns all the right files.

I'm on:

Guest Additions Version: 4.1.16
VirtualBox Version: 4.1.18
Chef Version: 0.10.10

I'll step back a few versions and see if that solves the problem.

[karmi]

Confirmed it fails on lucid32 and reported as chef-boneyard/minitest-chef-handler#27.

I can't see anything suspicious in https://github.com/calavera/minitest-chef-handler/blob/master/lib/minitest-chef-handler/resources.rb#L50 though.

[nrw]

As discussed on calavera/minitest-chef-handler#27, switching to chef 0.10.8 did result in tests passing.

[karmi]

@nrw How have you changed the Chef version inside the Vagrant box?

Tried it with the precise64 box, which has Chef 0.10.10 as well, and the whole run fails with another link related error...

DEBUG: NoMethodError: ruby_block[update-java-alternatives] (java::openjdk line 43) had an error: NoMethodError: undefined method `to_str' for nil:NilClass

/opt/vagrant_ruby/lib/ruby/1.8/fileutils.rb:359:in `ln_sf'

[nrw]

@karmi I swapped chef versions like this:

$ vagrant ssh lucid32
$ gem uninstall chef -v 0.10.10
$ gem install chef -v 0.10.8

Should i do that some other way? Is there an automated way to set the chef version?
