"chef-client -z" can not find my node

I never used chef-zero, but you named the role file was_v85_role.rb, I
guess it should be named was_v85.rb

Hi Lamont, I already have this role created on the file system, the error
still the same.

[root@sbybz3195 chef]# cat roles/was_v85_role.rb
run_list("recipe[was_v85]")

The command that I mentioned is a call of an application, I can't change
the structure for a while.

[root@sbybz3195 chef]# chef-client --local-mode -c client.rb -j
nodes/was_v85_node.json -N was_v85

I need to change this command from chef-solo to chef-zero to apply the ssl
features that are not included on chef solo.

[root@sbybz3195 chef]# chef-client --local-mode -c client.rb -j
nodes/was_v85_node.json -N was_v85

chef-client -z gets data from the file system via the chef-zero server
that gets spun up on localhost:8889. the behavior you are seeing is
working as designed.

you need to add a roles/was_v85_role.json file and then your run will
converge.

you also don't have to pass the -j option on the command line. you
might, however, want to create a separate dna.json file and invoke it with
"-j dna.json" which has the same contents. the chef-zero server will then
create the nodes/was_v85_node.json file and save the updated node there at
the end of the run_list. if you don't want chef-zero to overwrite your
json file with the updated node contents, then use "-j dna.json" instead.

Hi,

 I have tried to execute my cookbook using this command:

     *[root@sbybz3195 chef]# chef-client --local-mode -c client.rb

-j nodes/was_v85_node.json -N was_v85*

 This is my node declaration called by the chef execution:

    *{"run_list":["role[was_v85_role]"]}*

 I have received this message:

I would like figure out why my role declaration inside my node isn't

working

    Here's my client.rb declaration:

    [root@sbybz3195 chef]# cat client.rb
    CHEF_DIR = File.expand_path(File.dirname(__FILE__))
    file_cache_path "/tmp/chef-client"
   * role_path "/devops/commom/chef/roles"*
    #role_path CHEF_DIR + "/devops/commom/chef/roles"
    environment_path CHEF_DIR + "/environments"
    data_bag_path CHEF_DIR + "/data_bags"
    cookbook_path CHEF_DIR + "/cookbooks"

    ssl_client_cert CHEF_DIR + "/.ssl/client.crt"
    ssl_client_key  CHEF_DIR + "/.ssl/client.key"
    ssl_verify_mode :verify_peer

    #LOG
    log_level:info


It works pretty well with chef solo, but not with "chef-client

-local--mode", any suggestion?

Muito obrigado,
