I've generated a new template which I will be using to edit a Nginx conf file. The nginx.conf.erb file is created in my cookbook's Templates folder and I have edited it to make it configure Nginx as I want to. In my recipe, I have then added the following to make it update my Nginx conf file using my nginx.conf.erb template:
template '/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf' do
source 'nginx.conf.erb'
user 'root'
group 'root'
mode '0644'
end
The problem is when I run a 'kitchen converge' and login to the vagrant instance, my Nginx conf file (/etc/nginx/conf.d/default.conf) is not updated to the content of my nginx.conf.erb file. There is no errors during the converge and it appears that everything else in the recipe has been ran. The ChefDK won't let me scroll far enough up through the output to see what happened. Any suggestions on why the template might have not updated or where I can find logs that will give me the full output from the converge?
Chef client output (below) quotes the updates which I want to be made to the Nginx conf file but the file isn't updated when I login after the converge.

The full log is in .kitchen/logs/$instancename.log. That will show you the output from chef-client. You can also double check that you put the template file in the right place (though it would probably error if you didn't): templates/nginx.conf.erb (or templates/default/nginx.conf.erb if you're still using the outdated default/ subfolder).
