invalid byte sequence in US-ASCII

[retr0h]

I get the following when running vagabond server up. This works perfectly fine on my co-workers 13.04 system. The ubuntu_1204 container was created by vagabond.

$ bundle exec vagabond server up 
Vagabond: Creating server
  -> Chef Server container created!
  -> Chef Server CREATED!

When running the command manually, it works.

Chris, retr0h's coworker is me... :)

Hi! I'm guessing it's probably a locale issue since it seems to be taunting me everywhere else :P

What's the locale on your machine look like currently? Do you get the same output from locale when running it directly from your user and when you sudo locale ? I'll still throw in a bit to force utf-8 but I'm curious if an env adjustment would be enough as well.

[retr0h]

Seems to be the same ...

$ locale
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

$ sudo locale
[sudo] password for jdewey: 
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

@retr0h i threw in bunch of encoding bits on the files. want to give them a shot and see if it clears up?

[chrisroberts]

@retr0h any luck running against updates in the develop branch?

[chrisroberts]

If the problem resurfaces, please reopen this ticket.

Thanks!

[retr0h]

Sorry Chris -

Was held up lately. I'll dig into this.

Hi Chris -

I built a gem from the develop branch, and am running into the same problem...

emopop:cookbook-infra-db(master)% vagabond server up       
[sudo] password for jdewey: 
ERROR: Node already exists and is running: server

@retr0h no worries, and thanks for giving this a go again. I'm going to try and mess with a test node and see if I can't replicate the behavior. It looks to be an issue isolated to mixlib::shellout, sudo, and knife. It might be solved just by forcing some env vars along with it so I'll take a crack at that and see what I come up with.

[chrisroberts]

I believe the latest release should have this issue resolved
