使用 Chef 在 CentOS 上安装 Java JDK 1.8

Question

I'm trying to install Java JDK 1.8 on CentOS 7 using a Chef Cookbook.

I'm using Chef DK on Windows 10 and I've donloaded from https://downloads.chef.io/chefdk

In my Berksfile I've

source 'https://supermarket.chef.io'
metadata  

My Kitchen.yml is the follow

---
driver:
  name: vagrant

provisioner:
  name: chef_zero
  # You may wish to disable always updating cookbooks in CI or other testing environments.
  # For example:
  #   always_update_cookbooks: <%= !ENV['CI'] %>
  always_update_cookbooks: true

verifier:
  name: inspec

platforms:
  - name: centos-7

suites:
  - name: default
    run_list:
      - recipe[test::default]
    verifier:
      inspec_tests:
        - test/integration/default
    attributes:

My metadata.rb is the follow

name 'test'
maintainer 'The Authors'
maintainer_email 'you@example.com'
license 'All Rights Reserved'
description 'Installs/Configures test'
long_description 'Installs/Configures test'
version '0.1.0'
chef_version '>= 12.14' if respond_to?(:chef_version)

depends 'java', '~> 2.2.0'

My recipes/default.rb

node.default["java"]["install_flavor"] = "oracle"
node.default["java"]["jdk_version"]    = "8"
node.default['java']['oracle']['accept_oracle_download_terms'] = true

include_recipe "java"

and its attributes/recipe.rb

default['java']['install_flavor'] = 'oracle'
default['java']['jdk_version'] = '8'
default['java']['oracle']['accept_oracle_download_terms'] = true

When I try to execute kitchen converge the output is

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

After several attempts (supported also by the Slack Chef chat ...), I've solved: I'm not sure how general is this solution but it works.

The problem is a about execution of the command kitchen converge .

I've noticed that when it fails with the message warning: conflicting chdir during another chdir block this generate (I don't kno why ...), INSIDE the cookbook some directories (in my case, java , windows , homebrew , ecc .. ), and this was quite strange.

What I've done:

1. Submit the command kitchen destroy
2. Cleared out my berks cache C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\.berkshelf
3. Submit the command kitchen create
4. Submit the command kitchen converge
5. If the error warning: conflicting chdir during another chdir block compare and some strange directory is generated inside the cookbook, delete them (MANUALLY).
6. Check that the Chef supermarket cookbook are downloaded in C:\\Users\\USERNAME\\.berkshelf (in my case homebrew-5.0.4 , java-2.2.0 , tomcat-3.0.0 and windows-5.0.0 )
7. Repeat the command kitchen converge until no error is generated

In this way oracle java jdk 1.8 has been installed on my CentOS 7 target node

I hope this could be useful for others
