I updated our chef-server to v12.0.0 today (chasing SSL issues), now a chef-client run returns this:

On hosts that need powershell v4 installed (the above is 2012R2), like 2008R2, I was also seeing the same error style but for 'checksum'. Commenting out the 'checksum' line in the powershell v4 recipe allowed the install to complete.

This link describes my issue pretty close: http://lists.opscode.com/sympa/arc/chef/2014-07/msg00226.html

Debug info looks like this:

servername [2014-12-12T13:22:01-05:00] FATAL: NoMethodError: windows_package[NXlog] (NXlog::default line 20) had an erro
r: NoMethodError: undefined method `shell_out!' for #<Chef::Provider::Package::Windows::MSI:0x103eae0>
ERROR: Failed to execute command on servername return code 1

Line#20 of the referenced recipe:

# Install NXlog
windows_package "NXlog" do
    package_name "NXlog-client"
    source 'C:\temp\nxlog-ce-2.8.1248.msi'

    action :install
    not_if 'C:\\windows\\system32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe -NoLogo -NonInteractive -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned Get-Service -Name NXlog'  
end

At this point, unless this is an easy fix, I have no choice but to downgrade. Pretty sure this is an issue with the windows cookbook, but still a Chef newbie....so...maybe I've broken something?

Also, if this is using the windows cookbook, you are being affected by the same issue that causes #150

Glad to know it's not just me. If any further info/debug is required, I'm happy to help!

I think we should be good, should have a release both to Chef and the windows cookbook with both issues fixed on Monday

Awesome - thanks a ton!

What's the last known good version of the opscode windows cookbook so that users can fallback to something workable over the hectic weekend?

Perhaps just before the last PR at 1298ae5 ?

As @jdmundrawala reports, the master commit here resolves this NoMethodError for shell_out! and for checksum. My Vagrant+chef for a Windows guest is now past this issue. Thanks for the fix, guys.

Now, does anyone on this Windows team know why chef-solo on the Windows VM would be unable to find the rb roles files that are in the roles directory, that is properly mounted for the VM, that is just as readable as the cookbooks and environments directories, and which contains *.rb files that match the names of those files and have a name DSL attribute which also matches? That is, everything looks legit for the roles (and the Vagrantfile and chef setup work as-is for Ubuntu guests) but nevertheless chef-solo complains that the roles requested through chef.add_role "foo" are missing.

Hm...I cloned the master branch of the Opscode Windows cookbook from github, deleted the old from my Chef server, uploaded the new one...but still having issues. Maybe it's simple...? I fully nuked chef-client off this VM, uninstalled, cleaned the dirs, etc...

Edit: I should note - this is on a 2008R2 box. The 2012R2 box is working again.
Edit2: Of course, 2012R2 doesn't need powershell installed... The 2012 box is also failing...adding that below... I'll keep troubleshooting and report back.

I'm assuming this is fixed with the patch to Chef 12.0.0 - I couldn't find any info on when the new RPM would come out, and didn't see anything particular on updating an RPM install w. github code. (assuming it's a bad idea)

Could someone please point me in the right direction? (or let me know when new packages will be ready?) Thanks!

Thought I'd update and close this. I saw that 12.0.1 was released, so updated to that - no luck, did not resolve the issue I was having. Closer inspection revealed it seemed to be an issue with chef-client 12.x running on 2008 R2 (was getting Ruby segmentation faults). I now run with --bootstrap-version=11.16.4-01 (or whatever it is) and having no issues doing chef runs on those clients.

So there ya go.
