[chef] RE: Re: remote_file resource for FTP with username and password

[Kapil Shardha < >]

I tried that. In my case, the user account is a domain account so this is how my resource looks like

 

remote_file "Download Install File" do

            source "ftp://domain\\user: //install.exe"

            path "C:\\Temp\\install.exe"

end

 

 

It does not like the value of source attribute. I also tried using "> format too but chef-client resulted in same error.

 

Following is the error:

 

FATAL: Chef::Exceptions::InvalidRemoteFileURI: <URI> is not a valid source parameter for remote_file. Source must be an absolute URI or an array of URIs.

 

Thanks

Hi

 

It looks like it (https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/lib/chef/provider/remote_file/ftp.rb and https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/lib/chef/provider/remote_file/content.rb)

Have you tried setting the uri to " ">ftp://USER: " ?

All,

 

I checked the documentation for remote_file resource but could not find if there is a way to define attributes for FTP username and password. Any idea if that is supported?

 

Thanks
