[chef] exceptions in resources

[John de la Garza < >]

I just asked a question about which exceptions to rescue when using
http_request.  After
doing some more research, I've learned that  this question doesn't really make
sense...


I've read that I can't catch the Exception at the time the recipe runs.

I have some code that uses Net::HTTP::Get that runs in a lwrp.  I am
able to rescue exceptions
there.  Must I write my own code to do an HTTP post if I need to have
the run not
fail just because it can't post?  The post is ideal, but optional...
