Kitchen-converge keep's trying to install chef omnibus

Hi,
I was trying to set up vagrant using test-kitchen and I am behind a proxy server. I have installed vagrant-proxyconf gem along with test-kitchen,kitchen-vagrant and berkshelf. I do have configured proxyconfig parameters in the vagrantfile present in cookbook.

I observe the virtualmachine displayed in virtualbox but kitchen-converge doesn’t proceed and keeps trying to wget to install omnibus. Please let me know what i should look for to be able to continue with chef-client.

Vagrantfile:

if Vagrant.has_plugin?(“vagrant-proxyconf”)
config.proxy.http = "http://proxy.abc.testserver.com:8099"
config.proxy.https = "https://proxy.abc.testserver.com:8099"
config.proxy.no_proxy = "localhost,127.0.0.1"
end

kitchen.yml:

driver:
name: vagrant
customize:
natdnshostresolver1: "on"
network:

  • [“forwarded_port”, { guest: 81, host: 8082 }]

Trying wget…

Does it continue to run after that point? i would think its just checking for a newer version every run (maybe using latest? or even a version specified… might just check whats installed vs what is downloaded

I dont think it’s a show stopper unless you case is completely different

It doesn’t run after that point.I am not completely sure where i could check the installed vs download version. But, here’s my try…i am novice to chef and trying to learn things as am writing a cook book.

$ls -lh which chef
lrwxr-xr-x 1 root admin 20B Mar 22 21:31 /usr/local/bin/chef -> /opt/chefdk/bin/chef
Chef Development Kit Version: 0.11.2

But, when i tried to verify the chef components installed i observed, ruby gems were pointing to 2.1.0 in opt/chefdk/embedded/lib/ruby/site_ruby/2.1.0/, however, i was using ruby-2.2.3 version of ruby installed through rvm. Did i mess up anything with the way i have set up my chefdk and also my ruby environment.

I tried to check ohai and observed that chefdk could be missing right version of chef-config not bundled. how could i get the right version to over come this error.

You might try setting the http_proxy and https_proxy provisioner config settings in your .kitchen.yml instead of using vagrant-proxyconf.

Thanks @Matt_Wrock for looking into it. I have used environment variables in my shell for the proxy settings and haven’t used in .kitchen.yml. I will use them in my config and see how it works.

@Matt_Wrock I have updated the kitchen.yml with proxy settings and tried to run kitchen test but failed with the following error which i believe is not able to find the centos base box. should i also be using any other proxy variables to work behind proxy server in my kitchen.yml or vagrant file. Thank you.

1. Contact the upstream for the repository and get them to fix the problem.
2. Reconfigure the baseurl/etc. for the repository, to point to a working

3. Disable the repository, so yum won't use it by default. Yum will then

Note that yum will try to contact the repo. when it runs most commands,
so will have to try and fail each time (and thus. yum will be be much
slower). If it is a very temporary problem though, this is often a nice
