[chef] Re: Re: Link resource changed

Hi Jessica,

That was it - thanks.

Teaches me for not pinning the chef release in my AWS launch config.

(fault-finding on a tiny iPhone with diminishing battery does not make for a fun afternoon. :-( )

Cheers,

Edward

Hi Edward,

There was a bug about the link resource in 0.10.10 that was just opened this weekend: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-3102

It causes the resource to fail whenever the owner/group attributes are set. If you cannot remove these from your recipes you should be able to go back to installing 0.10.8 on any new servers by using the command 'gem install chef --version 0.10.8' instead, or adding '--bootstrap-version 0.10.8' to the end of your knife commands.
