Hi All,

Im trying to use chef provisioning with aws driver to create a vpc.  
#######################################  
require 'chef/provisioning/aws\_driver'  
with\_driver 'aws::ap-south-1'  
aws\_vpc 'name' do  
cidr\_block '10.0.0.0/24'  
internet\_gateway true  
main\_routes '0.0.0.0/0' =\> :internet\_gateway  
aws\_tags :chef\_type =\> 'aws\_vpc'  
end  
#######################################

VPC got created when checked in the console, but internet gateway did not get linked.  
Getting below error.

RuntimeError  
------------  
aws\_internet\_gateway[igw-managed-by-vpc-xxxxxxxxxxxx] (no AWS object id) (basic\_chef\_client::block line 267) had an error: RuntimeError: Chef::Resource::AwsVpc[vpc-xxxxxxxxxxx] does not exist!

please help me in resolving this issue.

Thanks in advance,  
Bhaskar S
