Hi,

I have a task to install a package on linux platform. The service that the package installed needs to run with a specific user. I am creating the user on the fly within the recipe and then using this user restarting the service thats installed within the recipe. Everything runs fine up until the service block. I get the below error in the service block:

  • service[service-manager] action enable

    ================================================================================
    Error executing action enable on resource 'service[service-manager]'

    TypeError

    no implicit conversion of String into Integer
