Hi,

I have installed aws-sdk-secretsmanager using gem install, I can see its available but when I try do require 'aws-sdk-secretsmanage' got the following issue

Did the gem get installed into the Chef Infra Client environment or the system gem environment? Do you have some example recipes or some steps we can do to replicate the issue?

Thanks!

Please use the following steps to replicate

1. Launched ec2 instance from the kitchen yaml

2.gem Install aws-sdk-secretsmanager and it installed successfully

3. please provide require " aws-sdk-secretsmanager" in the recipe,

Thanks

What does which gem return on your system?

[prat23k]

which gem returns nothing, can you help me to install gem from the cookbook on the ec2 instance

thanks

We don't really provide support like that however you should use chef_gem to install it at compile time so that it works.
