Having trouble getting vagrant-chef-zero to register clients and execute.
I also cannot connect to the chef-zero server using knife.
Questions:

1. Do I need to add json files in the nodes directory for each vm in the vagrantfile by name? I tried this but got no love.

2. Does vagrant-chef-zero/chef-zero automatically upload all the cookbooks in the paths specified in the config.chef_zero blocks? or do I need to use knife to do this?

Here is my local environment:

OSX Lion 10.8.4
RVM with 1.9.3
VirtualBox 4.2.12 (with ext pack 4.2.12)
Vagrant 1.2.2
Chef gem under the 1.9.3 RVM environment

Here is my Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
#VAGRANT_LOG = debug
#config.berkshelf.enabled = true
config.ssh.timeout = 120
#chef-zero configuration block
#chef-zero runs on the host machine not the guest
# config.chef_zero.enabled = false
config.chef_zero.nodes = "/Users/jeff/git-repos/vagrantprojects/vagrant-chef-zero/nodes"
config.chef_zero.environments = "/Users/jeff/git-repos/vagrantprojects/vagrant-chef-zero/environments"
config.chef_zero.data_bags = "/Users/jeff/git-repos/vagrantprojects/vagrant-chef-zero/data_bags"
config.chef_zero.cookbooks = "/Users/jeff/git-repos/vagrantprojects/vagrant-chef-zero/cookbooks"
config.chef_zero.roles = "/Users/jeff/git-repos/vagrantprojects/vagrant-chef-zero/roles"

config.vm.provider :virtualbox do |vb|
  vb.gui = true
  end

config.vm.define :vm1 do |vm1|
    vm1.vm.hostname  =  "vagrantvm1-local"
    vm1.vm.box       =  "centos64basebox"
          vm1.vm.provision :chef_client do |chef|
            chef.run_list = [
            ]
          end

end

Here is the error I get when doing vagrant up with my vagrant file:

Hey,

Thanks for reporting this. Just want to double check that you have the latest version (0.2.4).

Going over the log, a few things seems strange. It doesn't show Chef Zero uploading anything except for nodes. Additionally when it tries to access the node info, it goes through a url starting with /reports/, seems off.

I'll keep investigating for now.

[jbpadgett]

Thanks. Yeah the /report url seemed strange to me too.
I tried to create two node files just to see if they were required. My hope was they would get automatically created.
Here is one of them (run list is empty for now since I just want to make sure it will run cleanly):
vm1.json

{
"chef_type": "node",
"json_class": "Chef::Node",
"name": "vagrantvm1-local",
"chef_environment": "_default",
"run_list": []
}

Here is the vagrant plugins list I have:
vagrant plugin list

vagrant-chef-zero (0.2.4)
vagrant-rackspace (0.1.1)

Here are local gems I have for my RVM 1.9.3 environment just in case:

The reports URL is actually where is will try to find info from previous runs, and it is ok if it fails.

Hi Jeff, any luck fixing above issue you raised almost an year ago. I started using Vagrant recently and having similar issue. I did configure client.rb to point to chef-zero but no luck.
