Thanks to you both.

I’ve amended the dependency in the wrapper cookbook and hard-coded the passwords. It now does not attempt to reset the passwords on the second run, but still does not set the passwords correctly. I’ve updated the repository with the current code that I’m trying:

Kind regards,

Stuart

The second time that the cookbook runs it does try to apply the correct passwords, but fails, because the MySQL installation requires the root password that was set on the first run.

I’ve tried using the block format for configuring the MySQL resource, and with hard-coded values instead of Chef Vault, but get the same behaviour in both cases. There’s no open issue in JIRA or GitHub to suggest that this is a known issue.
