chef template gives No such file or directory @ rb_sysopen Errno::ENOENT


I have chef recipe with this block :

if ( platform === 'suse' )
        repo_name="some_repo"
        template '/etc/zypp/repos.d/some_repo' do
           source 'some_repo.rpm.repo.erb'
           variables( :os => "#{os}", :distro => "#{distro}", :repo_name => "#{repo_name}" )
           owner "root"
           group "root"
           mode '644'
        end
end

I understand the template should by default create the file. But it doesn't create the file and it gives the error No such file or directory.

The template some_repo.rpm.repo.erb itself looks like this:

[<%= @repo_name %>] 
name=<%= @repo_name %>
baseurl=http://BLA.com//repos/<%= @os %>/<%= @distro %>
enabled=1
gpgcheck=0
sslverify=0
proxy=_none_    

What am I doing wrong ?

EDIT2 : I know the issue is related to a block coming after the template i have this :

if %w(redhat suse sles).include?(node['platform'])
  directory '/tmp/some.repos.d' do
    owner 'root'
    group 'root'
    mode '0755'
    action :create
  end

  file '/tmp/some.repos.d/some.repo' do
    mode '0644'
    content IO.read(node['somepakage'][node['platform']]['repo_source'])
    action :create
  end
end

I wanted to copy the content of the file that the template created: "/etc/zypp/repos.d/some_repo" to /tmp/some.repos.d/some.repo

it seems like this block is creating the error with the template block which make the template not creating the new file, as a resulted the content IO.read block gets an error as the file was not created at the template stage.

this error only happed if i delete the file : /etc/zypp/repos.d/some_repo for testing to see if cookbook will re-create it. if this file exists no errors.

So, why "content IO.read" cancels "template" ?


Solution

  • This is the workaround :

    Addings this line to the start of all blockes :

    if %w(redhat suse sles ubuntu debian).include?(node['platform'])
    
      directory '/tmp/some.repos.d' do
        owner 'root'
        group 'root'
        mode '0755'
        action :create
      end
    end
    

    Then just duplicate the "template" block , for the other file :

    if ( platform === 'suse' )
            repo_name="some_repo"
            template '/etc/zypp/repos.d/some.repo' do
               source 'some.rpm.repo.erb'
               variables( :os => "#{os}", :distro => "#{distro}", :repo_name => "#{repo_name}" )
               owner "root"
               group "root"
               mode '644'
            end
    
        template '/tmp/some.repos.d/some.repo' do
            source 'some.rpm.repo.erb'
                variables( :os => "#{os}", :distro => "#{distro}", :repo_name => "#{repo_name}" )
                owner "root"
                group "root"
                mode '644'
            end
    
    end
