Hi All,
This is probably a newb misunderstanding on my behalf but this is my issue.
I’m using the latest open source chef server / chef-client on centos 6.5.
I have the latest yum cookbook - version 3.0.4
The cookbook attributes has default[‘yum’][‘main’][‘proxy’] = nil # /.*/
I have a role that sets yum/main/proxy to my http proxy and I can see the
attribute for my node within the webui. And now for the issue.
proxy doesn’t get set in my /etc/yum.conf unless I update
recipes/default.rb to include
proxy node[‘yum’][‘main’][‘proxy’] as well
The same applies to any of the attributes appearing in yum.conf. I was
expecting the behavior that if I set the attribute on something that makes
it to the node attributes then it would make the required change.
Is it meant to work this way? Feel free to slap me in the right direction
Tks Geoff
Hi Geoff.
I've updated the cookbook to consume this attribute by default.
Released in v3.0.6
