versioned_cookbooks not working #93

Closed laghoule closed 11 years ago

laghoule commented 11 years ago

I'm running version 0.9.8 with knife version 11.4.4 against chef-server 10.0.24. Everything work, except versioned cookbooks.

My knife config: repo_mode "everything" node_name "chef-webui" versioned_cookbooks true chef_server_url "http://XXX.XXX.com:4000" client_key "~/.chef/chef-webui.pem" cookbook_path "~/cookbooks"

I'm trying to upgrade from chef 10 to chef 11.

laghoule commented 11 years ago

Tried with CentOS 6.4 and Debian Squeeze.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

What does it do when you try? Can you run it with -VV and paste the output?

laghoule commented 11 years ago

It just download the latest release.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Oh hey! I have a suggestion. Do a gem uninstall on all older versions of knife-essentials. It could be you have a prior version and Chef 11 is picking that one up instead :/

laghoule commented 11 years ago

I have made a fresh install on a Ubuntu VM.

gem install chef gem install knife-essentials

without knife-essentials plugins, it work fine.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Hrrrgh. Ubuntu 10.04 or 12.04? Thanks for the detailed report, sorry for all this trouble :/ I'm bringing up a new VM to verify. Meantime, what are you seeing for gem list knife-essentials on the original VM? I ask because I'm not seeing the same behavior you are (which doesn't mean I haven't typed something wrong, of course).

Ubuntu 12.04. It was a fresh install, with no gem install. Here are my history:

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Thanks. I can repro. I'm confirming here, but I have a hunch this is a ruby 1.8.7 thing. I'm installing ruby 1.9.1 on my VM to see if it gets better.

laghoule commented 11 years ago

I will make the same test on CentOS 6.4 and Debian Squeeze. I will report my result.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Were you running ruby 1.8.7 on the vagrant box?

laghoule commented 11 years ago

Yes, on CentOS 6.4 it's 1.8.7:

[chef@knife-client ~]$ rpm -qa | grep ruby- ruby-libs-1.8.7.352-10.el6_4.x86_64 ruby-irb-1.8.7.352-10.el6_4.x86_64 ruby-1.8.7.352-10.el6_4.x86_64 ruby-devel-1.8.7.352-10.el6_4.x86_64 rubygem-yajl-ruby-0.8.2-2.el6.x86_64 ruby-rdoc-1.8.7.352-10.el6_4.x86_64

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

I have verified that those issues happen on 1.8.7. I'll add a note: gem install knife-essentials can only be installed on top of chef 11 if you are on Ruby 1.9.x.

Two possible next steps here:

  1. On the original machine, see if there are multiple versions of knife-essentials. There is a bug in knife where if there are two versions of a plugin, sometimes it selects the older one :/
  2. On the new VM, try gem installing chef and knife-essentials on Ruby 1.9.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Yeah. I think Ruby 1.9.x will get you where you need to go. Sorry for the trouble; I'll see if I can think my way out of the Ruby 1.8.7 trap.

laghoule commented 11 years ago

Ok, I will try that and report my result.

PS: just a note, all the "stable" branch of distro use ruby 1.8.7 (for now)

Thanks for your help.

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

I'm keen on getting this to work in 1.8.7, for sure.

laghoule commented 11 years ago

Just for the record... I have installed ruby (2.0.0p0 (2013-02-24 revision 39474) via rvm install, do a gem install chef and gem install knife-essential. It's now working :)

jkeiser commented 11 years ago

Yaaay! Thank goodness! I do think your original problem was that you had multiple knife-essentials. I'm going to close this issue, and do 2 things:

  1. Make an issue to fix knife-essentials+chef11+ruby1.8.7.
  2. Kick somebody to fix the issue where multiple knife-essentials versions sometimes picks the oldest.

Cool?
