Hello List,
The package manager from node has a little race condition problem that I think I should be able to solve with the “Common Functionality” of a retry, but setting this value appears to have no effect (but strangely enough, setting the delay works)… see run fragment below:
In /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/thumbnail/recipes/default.rb
79: execute ‘install-npm-pkgs’ do
80: retries 3
81: retry_delay 4
82: command ‘npm install’
83: cwd node[’service’][‘code_directory’]
86: end
87: end
Compiled Resource:
Declared in /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/thumbnail/recipes/default.rb:79:in `from_file’
execute(“install-npm-pkgs”) do
action "run"
retries 0
retry_delay 4
guard_interpreter :default
command "npm install"
backup 5
cwd "/var/www/thumbnail/current"
group "devops"
returns 0
user "devops"
cookbook_name "thumbnail"
recipe_name "default"
end
TIA, Michael
found my solution, it’s fixed in 12, nvrmnd: The value of retries is reported incorrectly in an error report · Issue #2258 · chef/chef · GitHub https://github.com/opscode/chef/issues/2258
