致命：使用posgtresql食谱时，您必须在chef-solo模式下设置node ['postgresql'] ['password'] ['postgres']

Question

So I included the cookbook 'postgresql', {} in my Cheffile. Now I have the box downloaded and installed with Vagrant, but when I run vagrant provision , it gives me the error:

FATAL: You must set node['postgresql']['password']['postgres'] in chef-solo mode

I saw somewhere that I should add this line:

default['postgresql']['password']['postgres'] = "myPassword"

in my default.rb file which is in the postgresql cookbook. But if I add this and do vagrant provision again, the line gets deleted and I run into the same error again.

What is the problem here?

Answer 1

You can set node data in Vagrantfile using chef.json . For example:

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  # ...

  config.vm.provision "chef_solo" do |chef|
    # ...

    chef.json = {
      postgresql: {
        password: {
          postgres: "myPassword"
        }
      }
    }
  end
end

See the Vagrant docs for more information.

Answer 2

I fixed the problem. I had two chef.json defined in my Vagrantfile. Stacking everything under one fixed the problem.
