Problems with chef 12.0.3-1 and lvm cookbook

[John_Warren]

I was testing one of our cookbooks using kitchen/vagrant and received the following error message:

  ←[0m
  ================================================================================
  Error executing action `create` on resource 'lvm_logical_volume[lv_jenkins]'
  ================================================================================

←[0m NoMethodError
-------------
undefined method `directory’ for #Chef::Provider::LvmLogicalVolume:0x0000000430dd48

         109:         volume = lvm_logical_volume(name, &block)
         110:         volume.action :nothing



   Compiled Resource:
         ------------------

         # Declared in /tmp/kitchen/cookbooks/lvm/libraries/resource_lvm_volume_group.rb:109:in `logical_volume'

         lvm_logical_volume("lv_jenkins") do
           provider Chef::Provider::LvmLogicalVolume
           action [:nothing]
           retries 0

This is using version 1.2.2 of the opscode lvm cookbook. Everything works fine when I force kitchen to use chef 11.8.0. I was assuming that chef 12.x would be backwards compatible. Is this not the case?

Thanks,

Seems a lot like this issue:

Issue: Chef Client 12 introduces error: NoMethodError undefined method `new' for Chrome:Module

which is also really well explained over on the ark cookbook’s issues tracker:

Issue: Getting error "NoMethodError: undefined method `new' for Ark:Module" with Chef 12

We solved an issue like this on the Zookeeper cookbook by renaming the module Ridiculous, I know, but it worked.

The cookbook needs to be updated for Chef 12. Add "include Chef::DSL::Recipe" to the top of the providers.

Nope. 12 is a major release, intended to have some brekage.
This is a known issue, we have submitted a PR [1], which should fix this.
