Cookbook not found with vagrant, berkshelf and chef-solo

  • 772

I'm attempting to get a vagrant instance up and running, but when I do vagrant up --provision, it fails with the error:

ERROR: Cookbook postgres not found.

I'm using vagrant-berkshelf, which appears to be copying the cookbooks across. That is: when I vagrant ssh to the VM, I can see a cookbook /tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-1/cookbooks/postgres.

So why isn't chef (inside the vagrant box) finding the cookbook? I thought that the vagrant-berkshelf plugin was supposed to deal with this?

vagrant

  1. Not sure if this is an internally created postgres cookbook or not, but I would verify that the metadata.rb of the postgres cookbook you have is properly named. At the very least, it should have

    name 'postgres'
