[chef] RE: Still hitting same problem of COOK-1172 after applying hotfix from Microsoft

[" " < >]

Hi Zenkai,

  I’m not sure if you got an answer to this or found it yourself, but was this question referring to the Microsoft patch KB2918614?

  If so, there was an update released for knife-windows, so you need to update the GEM, using ‘gem update knife-windows’ to get the latest version.

  I could get recipes or bootstraps to run with the patch removed but as soon as it was replaced WinRM broke.

  Updating the GEM has fixed the issues I had with bootstrapping and remote file copies initiated from WinRM.

 

Hope this helps

Chris

Subject: [chef] Still hitting same problem of COOK-1172 after applying hotfix from Microsoft

 

Hi

I've been trying to install SQL Server Express on HPCS using chef client local mode through Powershell Remoting (trying to avoid using Chef Server)  but so far 
with no success.

I have had exact same (at least looks identical to me) as ticket COOK-1172 described.

I am able to run the cookbook from local Powershell window and install SQL Server without any error. Once I switched to execute from remote machine. It fails just like that ticket.

 

I am able to work around with similar trick setting up schedule task in windows.

 

But I am not able to get this over by applying Microsoft hotfix which closed that ticket.

 

Anybody had experience can help me?  Thanks Not sure what I missed.
