[chef] Re: Downgrade your ridley gem if berks upload doesn't work

[Todd Michael Bushnell < >]

Thanks Kevin!  I lost a few hours on this one yesterday as well before finally giving up and pinning Berkshelf to an older version.  I switched to your solution and upload works.  I do still get the following:

Ridley::Errors::HTTPBadRequest {"error":["Field 'metadata.name' invalid"]}

It appears to be benign, but I'll need to investigate when I actually have changes to push.  Thanks again for sharing the knowledge.

There's a regression in the newest version of ridley, 0.8.4, or one of it's dependencies that breaks `berks upload`. It caused me a few hours of anguish today tracking down the solution, so I decided to go ahead and let everyone know so no one else has to debug it as well.

Just put this in your Gemfile and you'll be good to go.

gem 'ridley', "0.8.3"
