'berks upload --no-ssl-verify' fails

Chef Infra (archive)
1

I ran ‘berks install’ successfully. I can run ‘knife cookbook upload mycookbook’ successfully.

But berks upload fails as shown below. I did this in a corporate environment with proxy. On my home computer without proxy, ‘berks upload’ runs without issues.

$ berks upload --no-ssl-verify

Victor,

A couple possibilities here. But I think the simplest is that berkshelf
doesn’t honor the --no-ssl-verify (or at least it didn’t).

I’ve always setup my berkshelf config.json to turn off ssl verify if I need
to: https://gist.github.com/galenemery/144e66097b863cac7ba4

Galen,

I added {“ssl”: {“verify”: false}} into ~/.berkshelf/config.json. But ‘berks upload’ gives the same error.

Maybe this error is something else?

  1. Try to unset proxy variables while uploading

Example: unset http_proxy

  1. Setup no_proxy value in knife.rb to your chef url.

Examle : no_proxy “chef_server.corp.com”
