I'm trying to setup Nginx with Passenger on RVM in Chef using community cookbook for nginx and fnichol's for RVM. Everything on ubuntu.
Now, my problem is that if I bootstrap the machine using knife ec2 and try to install everything in one go, it fails.
For the most part it works well, picking up RVM and Passenger nicely, until the point when it realizes Passenger is not compiled, tries to do it using rake from default ruby 1.9.1 and fails.
If I then connect to the machine and run sudo chef-client, everything finishes beautifully and I have correctly configured machine. Why doesn't it work on the first run? What setting/path element/environment variable am I missing during the first run?
My recipe is very straightforward:
include_recipe "chef_gem" include_recipe "rvm::system" include_recipe "rvm::gem_package" group "rvm" do action :modify members "ubuntu" append true end include_recipe "nginx::source" My attributes a little bit less so:
# rvm normal['rvm']['rubies'] = ['2.1.0'] normal['rvm']['default_ruby'] = node['rvm']['rubies'].first normal['rvm']['user_default_ruby'] = node['rvm']['rubies'].first normal['rvm']['gems'][node['rvm']['default_ruby']] = [{name: "bundler"}, {name: "rake"}] # nginx normal['nginx']['version'] = '1.4.5' normal['nginx']['dir'] = '/etc/nginx' normal['nginx']['log_dir'] = '/var/log/nginx' normal['nginx']['binary'] = "/opt/nginx-#{node['nginx']['version']}/sbin" normal['nginx']['source']['sbin_path'] = "#{node['nginx']['binary']}/nginx" normal['nginx']['init_style'] = 'init' normal['nginx']['default_site_enabled'] = false normal['nginx']['source']['version'] = node['nginx']['version'] normal['nginx']['source']['modules'] = ["nginx::http_stub_status_module", "nginx::http_ssl_module", "nginx::http_gzip_static_module", "nginx::passenger"] normal['nginx']['source']['prefix'] = "/opt/nginx-#{node['nginx']['source']['version']}" normal['nginx']['source']['default_configure_flags'] = ["--prefix=#{node['nginx']['source']['prefix']}", "--conf-path=#{node['nginx']['dir']}/nginx.conf", "--sbin-path=#{node['nginx']['source']['sbin_path']}"] normal['nginx']['source']['url'] = "http://nginx.org/download/nginx-#{node['nginx']['source']['version']}.tar.gz" # passenger normal['nginx']['passenger']['version'] = '4.0.37' normal['nginx']['passenger']['ruby'] = "#{node['rvm']['root_path']}/wrappers/ruby-#{node['rvm']['default_ruby']}/ruby" normal['nginx']['passenger']['gem_binary'] = "#{node['rvm']['root_path']}/wrappers/ruby-#{node['rvm']['default_ruby']}/gem" normal['nginx']['passenger']['root'] = "#{node['rvm']['root_path']}/gems/ruby-#{node['rvm']['default_ruby']}/gems/passenger-#{node['nginx']['passenger']['version']}" normal['nginx']['configure_flags'] = ["--add-module=#{node['rvm']['root_path']}/gems/ruby-#{node['rvm']['default_ruby']}/gems/passenger-#{node['nginx']['passenger']['version']}/ext/nginx"] Problematic part:
