Open ghost opened 3 years ago

This issue was originally opened by @sogos as hashicorp/packer#3298. It was migrated here as a result of the Packer plugin split. The original body of the issue is below.

When i use this snippet

{
    "type": "chef-solo",
    "install_command": "curl -L https://www.chef.io/chef/install.sh | {{if .Sudo}}sudo {{end}}bash -s -- -v 12.6.0",
    "cookbook_paths": ["{{user `cookbook_paths`}}"],
    "environments_path": "{{user `environments_path`}}",
    "roles_path":  "{{user `chef_roles_path`}}",
    "data_bags_path": "{{user `data_bags_path`}}",
    "encrypted_data_bag_secret_path": "{{user `encrypted_data_bag_secret_path`}}",
    "chef_environment": "build",
    "run_list": ["role[webserver]"]
}

The solo.rb is not filled with roles_path and role directory is not uploaded to staging_directory

Thanks
