[chef] Re: Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]

Chef config used mixlin config under the hood , you should be able to assign any value directly, 

Chef::Config[:file_cache_path]= 'foo'

Also this is chef client related configuration, hence it might vary depending upon chef version (hosted chef, opensource chef , private chef .. chef server in general does not control this). All this configs are defined in lib/chef/config.rb , and you can specify this in  your client.rb file as well, like

file_cache_path = '/var/chef/cache' (currently this is the default btw)

Hi,

I am used to using hosted chef.  cache was in /var/chef/cache

When I use chef-solo cache was in cookbook directory.  How do I override Chef::Config[:file_cache_path] to got  back to /var/chef/cache when using chef-solo?

Thanks
