Invisible Guard stopping exeution

Hello,

This small recipe:

execute “extract from ZIP” do

action :run
#notifies :run, “execute[start]”, :immediately
end
##############################################

…keeps skipping the extraction of the zipfile:

Are you getting warnings for CHEF-3694 earlier in the logs?

Thank you very much for the time.

You remind me of a terrible omission...I am forced to use
a specific version of Chef:

Running chef-solo...
[2014-11-12T10:54:57-05:00] INFO: *** Chef 10.14.4 ***

...but I grep'ed for that code (3694) in my log and saw nothing...I will
rerun with debug on to confirm.

Thank you again....Hope Springs Eternal! :0)

I simplified my test to this recipe:
#################################
dest_dir = "/opt/new"

cookbook_file "NEW" do
source "new.zip"
mode "0644"
path "/tmp/new.zip"
end

directory dest_dir do
owner 'root'
group 'root'
mode "0755"
recursive true
action :create
end

execute "extract from ZIP" do
cwd "/opt/new"
command "unzip /tmp/new.zip"
end
###################################

I see that the extraction was still skipped:

Is an only_if inherited at some point?

The only thing I can think of is that It looks like something else in
your machines run list is modifying the execute "extract from ZIP"
resource at compile-time and adding a only_if block, because the
recipe that you have shown us, does not contain one.

Could you possibly use a service like gist or pastebin to capture the
entire Chef run in debug mode? maybe also use 'chef-solo -o ccow::new'
to only run the one recipe in override, instead of whatever you are
passing in via your Vagrantfile.

Dude, that is all good stuff! :0)

...and I, also, have had to suspect some other "insertion" of the only_if
requirement.

I will try the solo call, and will post more data if I re-raise the issue.

...really weird that it happens for such a small recipe.
