I have copied chef files from my chef server to a local client node, under ~/.chef, i have all environments under ~/.chef/environments, e.g. development.rb, production.rb, etc.
When i run chef-client -z -E development -r 'recipe[cookbook_foo::recipe_bar]' from under ~/.chef/ i get this error:
================================================================================
Error expanding the run_list:
================================================================================
Unexpected API Request Failure:
-------------------------------
Object not found: http://localhost:8889/environments/development
If i run the command without -E development everything works fine. However, i need to pass the environment name, because #{node.chef_environment} variable is used in that chef recipe. Google didn't provide me with an answer on this one :/
I'm using chef client 11.16.4
Any ideas?
Unfortunately Chef Zero doesn't understand the .rb DSL files. You'll need to convert your environment files to .json to use them with Chef Zero.
