[chef] Non-convergence of cookbook on node

[ANGELA EBIRIM < >]

Hello,

I would really appreciate some assistance with this...

I'm trying to get a particular cookbook to run on a Ubuntu node. The node is brand new and the first thing I did just after spinning up an instance in AWS, did a chef-client on the command line (which should identify this node to the Chef server) and then did a chef run -r "recipe[cookbook_name::default]".

I received the following:-

Starting Chef Client, version 11.14.6

resolving cookbooks for run list: ["cookbook_name::default"]

Synchronizing Cookbooks:

  - chef_handler

  - windows

  - logrotate

  - cron

  - chef-client

  - cookbook_name

Compiling Cookbooks...

Converging 0 resources

Running handlers:

Running handlers complete

Chef Client finished, 0/0 resources updated in 3.269889693 seconds

Can you please tell me why the default recipe isn't being run?

Many thanks
