Hi,
I am new to chef and until yet I got up and running a chef server and a developer box using vagrant to spin up machines using chef client.
After forking all git repos that are required for a swift server (cluster) here https://github.com/lollisoft/swift, I was able to upload all cookbooks swift depends on.
After all I was not able to get rid of the following error:
==> default: ===================================================================

agement-server.rb

Chef never successfully completed! Any errors should be visible in the
output above. Please fix your recipes so that they properly complete.
As of the maintainer of that swift cookbook mentioned the usage of ansible and do no longer support chef, I am set up.
One solution would propably using another swift cookbook from here:
https://github.com/openstack/cookbook-openstack-object-storage, but I like to understand the
error first.
Do I miss something?
Is there any other swift repo supported by Chef (may be cookbook-openstack-object-storage)?
Any help is welcome!
Thanks, Lothar
