Ubuntu 15 fails because /sbin/status is not found

[Paladin]

Not sure if this is rightly here or in chef's Upstart code, but using

$> chef -v
Chef Development Kit Version: 0.6.0
chef-client version: 12.3.0
berks version: 3.2.4
ckitchen version: 1.4.0

and openssh cookbook 1.4.0

to build ubuntu 15.04 server I get an error:

     * service[ssh] action enable

       ================================================================================
       Error executing action `enable` on resource 'service[ssh]'
       ================================================================================

       Errno::ENOENT
       -------------
       No such file or directory - /sbin/status

None of those files (enable, restart, status) exist in /sbin in the 15.04 image I'm building from. The same cookbook in the same environment builds 14.04 just fine. (and while there is no /sbin/status the command "service ssh status" works.

A follow up with some more information. Falling back to version 1.3.0 of this cookbook seems to work well in Ubuntu 15 (can log in and the config file is correct) as well as Ubuntu 14.

@Paladin This should be resolved here:
#62

This should be fixed in the 1.5.0 release

Same issue systemd/upstart change at debian:stretch.

[dmigous]

I think adding smth like

if  'debian' == node['platform']
  if Chef::VersionConstraint.new('>= 9').include?(node['platform_version'])
    service_provider = Chef::Provider::Service::Upstart
  else
    service_provider = Chef::Provider::Service::Systemd
  end
end

will resolve issue
