[chef-dev] RE: My java web application cookbook

["Kadel-Garcia, Nico" < >]

I've seen some reports that the current 'application_java' cookbook has some 
problems with chef versions 11.6 or more recent. I've also personally had 
difficulty using it with jar files rather than war files, or with two 
different ruby stanzas calling two different war files from the same 
directory. I'm therefore not personally using it until these issues are 
resolved, and instead use other tools to download relevant war or jar files, 
and create my own symlinks as needed, with a version check and a checksum of 
the downloaded file to verify if it's been changed and to trigger a restart 
of the relevant daemon.

Subject: [chef-dev] My java web application cookbook 

Hi all,

I'm creating a java web application cookbook which deploys a my webapp (war).
My war doesn't use a database and so I'm following the "USAGE" at link 
(https://github.com/poise/application_java).

I've downloaded the application_java cookbook and I've added my default.rb 
file in the recipes folder.
I'm using chef-solo. I've resolved all cookbooks dependencies.

When I try to run the chef-solo command I've got this error:


Recipe Compile Error in /var/chef/cookbooks/tomcat/recipes/default.rb
SyntaxError
-----------
compile error
/var/chef/cookbooks/tomcat/recipes/default.rb:30: syntax error, unexpected ')'
/var/chef/cookbooks/tomcat/recipes/default.rb:39: syntax error, unexpected ')'
/var/chef/cookbooks/tomcat/recipes/default.rb:119: syntax error, unexpected 
$end, expecting kEND


Cookbook Trace:
---------------
  /var/chef/cookbooks/tomcat/recipes/default.rb:119:in `from_file'

Could you help me?
Thank you
