why chef_gem recipe works from chef-solo and not through vagrant

Question

Resources chef_gem works with chef-solo but not with vagrant up

myapp/Vagrantfile

Vagrant.configure("2") do |config|
  config.vm.hostname = "my-hostname"
  config.vm.box = "ubn1204-chef-gemsources-i386"
  config.vm.network :private_network, ip: "33.33.33.10"
  config.vm.boot_timeout = 120
  config.berkshelf.enabled = true

  config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
    chef.json = {
      :mysql => {
        :server_root_password => 'rootpass',
        :server_debian_password => 'debpass',
        :server_repl_password => 'replpass'
      }
    }
    chef.run_list = [
      "recipe[myface::mysql_gem]"
    ]
  end
end

*myapp/recipes/mysql_gem.rb*

%w{mysql-client libmysqlclient-dev make}.each do |pack|
  package pack do
    action :nothing
  end.run_action(:install)
end
g = chef_gem "mysql" do
  action :nothing
end
g.run_action(:install)

when execute vagrant up I get the following error

output above. Please fix your recipes so that they properly complete.

however I go into vagrant VM vagrant ssh

execute vagrant$ sudo chef-solo -c /vagrant/solo.rb -j /vagrant/aux.rb it works ok.

when

/vagrant/aux.rb

{
    "mysql": {
    "server_root_password": "rootpass",
    "server_debian_password": "debpass",
    "server_repl_password": "replpass"
},
    "run_list": [ "recipe[myface::mysql_gem]" ]
}

and

/vagrant/solo.rb

file_cache_path    "/var/chef/cache"
file_backup_path   "/var/chef/backup"
cookbook_path ["/tmp/vagrant-chef-1/chef-solo-1/cookbooks"]
log_level :info
verbose_logging    true

encrypted_data_bag_secret "/tmp/encrypted_data_bag_secret"

Someone knows why it works ok directly from chef-solo and not through vagrant ?
