Hi, I am facing this compilation error when I run chef-client on my node. Could you help?

[aririikonen]

Would you have further information on this case? Output, logfiles, what do you see and experience?

When looking at the implementation details of the line 70, it looks like it is trying to load non-existing items from the data bag on the chef server

# File 'lib/chef/data_bag_item.rb', line 191

def self.load(data_bag, name)
  if Chef::Config[:solo]
    bag = Chef::DataBag.load(data_bag)
    item = bag[name]
  else
    item = Chef::REST.new(Chef::Config[:chef_server_url]).get_rest("data/#{data_bag}/#{name}")
  end

  if item.kind_of?(DataBagItem)
    item
  else
    item = from_hash(item)
    item.data_bag(data_bag)
    item
  end
end

I guess that everyone stops reading the README at the example lines and forgets about the following paragraph that addresses this exact problem:

You need to set up an encrypted data bag item to secure the oracle user's password. See Opscode's docs site for details on encrypted data bags: encrypted data bag doc Your encrypted item requires a key named pw, whose value is the password of the oracle user- you can set that to whatever you want. You must set the value of node[:oracle][:user][:edb] to the name of your data bag, and that of node[:oracle][:user][:edb_item] to the name of the encrypted item; the defaults are oracle and foo, respectively.
