Hi all -
Seemingly out of the blue, after not specifying the distribution now during
the bootstrap, an encrypted databag who’s contents is placed in a file no
longer has it’s “\n”'s respected.
Is there some change I missed/overlooked?
Again - in the encrypted databag, I have:
“foo \n”,
“bar \n”
and I want that spat into a file with each of those values on a separate
line, but when this runs, I wind up with one huge line.
Any suggestions?

Sounds like it's possibly related to this?

Hmmm- more history...
Previously, we were specifying the distribution we wanted to use
(ubuntu12.04-gems), but the moneta issue broke this for us, so via this
mailing list, we solved this by upgrading my cookbooks and taking out the
distribution flag to the bootstrap command.
If I specify the bootstrapping version, will that also solve this?
Help me figure out what I've changed that would all of a sudden be causing
this pain

I tried to specify the version of chef to install in the bootstrap command
(10.16.4) and that didn't solve the issue either.
Daniel - the bug you mention - do I have to upgrade my client from
10.12.0 to 11.X to get this all working again?

I've also just noticed that the machine running the bootstrap is 10.12.0 -
does this matter when you're specifying the bootstrap version explicitly?

Assuming the bug I referenced is your problem, then the core of the issue is that you're creating encrypted data bags on ruby 1.8-1.9.2 and reading them on ruby 1.9.3. You can work around the issue by adding this code to your chef/config.rb or in the cookbook that reads the encrypted data bag item:
YAML::ENGINE.yamler = 'syck' if RUBY_VERSION > '1.9'
A longer discussion of the format change in encrypted data bag items, the implications of the change, and compatibility is here:
Daniel DeLeo
The place where I'd have to add that is on the machine I'm bootstrapping,
no?
I still don't understand clearly what changed - I mean - this was working
not that long ago...

Is the inverse also true? I can see that locally, I'm running 1.9.3 - but
I'm not sure what is getting used during bootstrapping... Waiting to get
this particular vm back to a failed state so I can see...

Hmmm - does this apply to ONLY encrypted databags? I tried it with a
normal one and the same problem exists...

Also - should this line:
YAML::ENGINE.yamler = 'syck' if RUBY_VERSION > '1.9'
be:
YAML::ENGINE.yamler = 'syck' if RUBY_VERSION > '1.9.2'
based on your comment (and the bug):
....on ruby 1.8-1.9.2 and reading them on ruby 1.9.3....
