[chef] Chef mount not working with directory

[Christian Fröstl < >]

HI there,

I have q question regarding the resource type „mount“.
If I first create a directory resource and afterwards uses the resource
mount to mount a remote file system on the previous created directory it
works only for the first chef-client run.
After the mount of the remote filesystem, the resource directory will fail
during the next chef-client run.

Following code:

directory "#{tomcat_bag['webserver']['mountpoint_fs_install']}" do
         'tomcatusr1'
        group 'tomcatusr1'
        mode  0755
        action :create
end

mount tomcat_bag[servertype]['mountpoint_fs_install'] do
        device tomcat_bag[servertype]['mountsource_fs_install']
        fstype "nfs"
        options "rw"
        action [:mount, :enable]
            End


Log:
First run:
  * directory[/apps/install] action create (up to date)
  * mount[/apps/install] action mount
    - mount fil0001.stag.nubon.com:/install to /apps/install
* mount[/apps/install] action enable (up to date)


Second run:
  * directory[/apps/install] action create

 29:   group 'tomcatusr1'
 30:   mode  0755
 31:   action :create
 32: end
 33:

Compiled Resource:

directory("/apps/install") do
  provider Chef::Provider::Directory
  action [:create]
  retries 0
  retry_delay 2
  guard_interpreter :default
  path "/apps/install"
  owner "tomcatusr1"
  group "tomcatusr1"
  mode 493
  cookbook_name "tomcat"
  recipe_name "webserver"
end




Does anybody of you have an idea, how I can fix this problem?

Thanks,
Christian
