[chef] Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher\Exception'with message 'Action 'route404' was not found on handler

[Tomasz Chmielewski < >]

I'm getting an error when trying to run bootstrap:

$ knife bootstrap --run-list "role[haproxy]" --json-attributes "{\"haproxy\": 
{\"server_name\": \"haproxy01.st.example.com\"}}" --ssh-user root  
haproxy01.st.example.com


The command fails, because all cookbook files on the client are 544 byte 
files with the following content
(below, for /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/build-essential/libraries/matchers.rb):


Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'Phalcon\Mvc\Dispatcher\Exception' with 
message 'Action 'route404' was not found on handler 'index'' in

Knife bootstrap doesn't complain when uploading it, but of course breaks when 
trying to compile a broken file:

error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting keyword_do or '{' or '('


On my worstation side, the file looks fine:

$ cat cookbooks/build-essential/libraries/matchers.rb
if defined?(ChefSpec)
  def install_xcode_command_line_tools(resource_name)
    ChefSpec::Matchers::ResourceMatcher.new(:xcode_command_line_tools, 
:install, resource_name)
  end
end


Any ideas why this breaks?

I'm using this on workstation and client:

$ dpkg -l|grep chef
ii  chef                                                  11.12.2-1           
                                amd64        The full stack of chef

Server has this installed:

# dpkg -l|grep chef
ii  chef-server                      11.0.12-1.ubuntu.12.04            The 
full stack of chef-server
