Windows_path issue in Chef-Client 11.14.2

[kpei]

Getting an error of "Cannot modify env[PATH] - key does not exist!"

Full paste here http://pastebin.com/ctvVJHrz, anyone else getting the error as well on the new chef? This wasn't happening when i ran it on an older version of Chef-Client (11.12.8 I believe)

Have you tried the latest version of the windows cookbook yet?

I'm having the same problem. I tested with 1.34.0 and 1.33.1 versions.

Any workaround?

[RobertoSchneiders]

I tested with chef-client 11.12.8, works properly.

Yes I had to revert back to 11.12.8 to get the softwares to deploy

This is a simple example that illustrates the bug at chef/chef#1754:

env "envBUG" do
  action :delete
end

env "envbug" do
  action :create
  value 'stuff'
end

env "envBUG" do
  action :modify
  value 'stuff2'
end

chef/chef#1803 should fix this when released.

Chef 11.14.4 should have had the fix for this issue.
