Hi, I’m trying to copy a file on change (both files are in /tmp for now):
default.rb
default[“FOO”][“latest_war”] = “/tmp/app.war”
default[“FOO”][“target_war”] = “/tmp/dest.war”
My resource specification looks like this:
remote_file node.default[“FOO”][“target_war”] do
action :create
source node.default[“FOO”][“latest_war”]
end
When I run the Chef client I get an error:
[Mon, 13 Feb 2012 19:55:09 +0000] FATAL: Chef::Exceptions::FileNotFound:
remote_file[/tmp/dest.war] (XX line 65) had an error:
Chef::Exceptions::FileNotFound: Cookbook ‘XX’ (0.0.1) does not contain a
file at any of these locations:
files/amazon-2011.09//tmp/app.war
files/amazon//tmp/app.war
files/default//tmp/app.war
Is there a way of forcing remote_file to look outside the cookbook? Have I
misunderstood this resource? Is there a better one to use?
Thanks,
Mark
from what I can tell remote_file only supports pulling from a url or the
files/ subdirectory of your cookbook. Where do you get app.war from in the
first place?

The war file is copied into /tmp from a CI server at the moment.
Thanks for the pointer! It'll come in useful.

why don't u use the url from the ci server? what is your ci server?
artifactory?
umm, do you use maven? I was thinking of writing a maven lwrp to fetch wars
like this much like the deploy resources works
We use jenkins + artifactory at my office. I am looking for a collaborator
on this topic as I know ruby + chef fairly well but not much about the java
deployment chain. I will write the maven lwrp either way but having some
feedback from someone who actually understands these systems will make it
more effective

It's a Jenkins server but it's behind a firewall and this server has to
stay outside it for the (undefined duration) moment 
We're using Jenkins and Maven here. I'd be glad to help if I can!

does the jenkins server make the .war available from a url?
do you have a maven repository to the war goes into after it is built?

for quick and dirty, use a ruby_block
ruby_block "move wars" do
block do
require 'fileutils'
# this is pseudo-code
app_war = File('/tmp/app.war')
dest_war = File('/tmp/dest.war')
app_checksum = Sha256sum(app_war)
dest_checksum = Sha256sum(dest_war)
if app_checksum != dest_checksum
FileUtils.cp_f app_war, dest_war
end
end
end
though remote_file should really support a file path rather than just a
URL, I recommend filing a bug on tickets.opscode.com

Hey Peter,
It looks like we are shaving the similar yaks
your method of installing glassfish looks almost exactly the same as my
java_ark lwrp. The only exception is that you have a different way to
avoid downloading the tarball each time.
java_ark "glassfish" do
url "path"
checksum "..sha256sum..."
app_home "/usr/local/glassfish/default"
owner "glassfish"
end
I am not sure any more whether I really need to provide the checksum after
all. also, app_home could probably be changed to prefix_dir and provided
the value /usr/local/ rather than /usr/local/glassfish/default
java_ark handles unpacking .zip, .tar.gz, and .tar.bz2
Your lwrps for glassfish look remarkably like what I am trying to do w/ the
tomcat and jboss cookbooks.
It would be great if we could chat on IRC or skype (berrdawg) about the
challenges of creating java-related, esp. consistent system v init scripts
for both debian and EL (rhel) and how to install multiple instances
containers on the same system.
hope to hear from you soon!

from what I can tell remote_file only supports pulling from a url or the
files/ subdirectory of your cookbook. Where do you get app.war from in the
first place?
btw, if you are working on a java stack these java-related cookbooks may
be useful to you cookbooks/java at master · bryanwb/cookbooks · GitHub
cookbooks/tomcat at master · bryanwb/cookbooks · GitHub (alpha)
And if you are using GlassFish v3 checkout
GitHub - realityforge/chef-glassfish
and for bonita (a java BPMN server)
GitHub - realityforge/chef-bonita: A cookbook for installing the Bonita BPM software

Hey Peter,
It looks like we are shaving the similar yaks
your method of installing glassfish looks almost exactly the same as my
java_ark lwrp. The only exception is that you have a different way to
avoid downloading the tarball each time.
GitHub - bryanwb/chef-java: java cookbook
java_ark "glassfish" do
url "path"
checksum "..sha256sum..."
app_home "/usr/local/glassfish/default"
owner "glassfish"
end
I am not sure any more whether I really need to provide the checksum after
all. also, app_home could probably be changed to prefix_dir and provided
the value /usr/local/ rather than /usr/local/glassfish/default
java_ark handles unpacking .zip, .tar.gz, and .tar.bz2
Your lwrps for glassfish look remarkably like what I am trying to do w/
the tomcat and jboss cookbooks.
It would be great if we could chat on IRC or skype (berrdawg) about the
challenges of creating java-related, esp. consistent system v init scripts
for both debian and EL (rhel) and how to install multiple instances
containers on the same system.
hope to hear from you soon!
