Why oh why will this not work? Even worse…I am ignore_failure true. I
included the aws recipe in the run list.
directory “/etc/chef/ohai/hints” do
owner "root"
group "root"
recursive true
action :create
end
file “/etc/chef/ohai/hints/ec2.json” do
owner "root"
group "root"
action :create
end
aws_resource_tag node[‘ec2’][‘instance_id’] do
aws_access_key aws[‘AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID’]
aws_secret_access_key aws[‘AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY’]
tags({“Name” => “#{node.name}”,
“node_name” => “#{node.name}”,
“environment” => node.chef_environment})
action :update
ignore_failure true
end
I included the aws recipe and yet aws_resource_tag node does not work.
