Error executing action `install` on resource 'gem_package[sensu-plugins-uptime-checks]'

[gopalvd]

I am using the below code snippet in my recipe to create the sensu check definition

sensu_gem 'sensu-plugins-uptime-checks'
sensu_check 'check_uptime_metrics' do
command 'metrics-uptime.rb --scheme sensu_stats.:::name:::'
standalone true
type 'metric'
interval 30
handlers ['graphite']
end

---

I am getting the below error when running the chef client.

• sensu_gem[sensu-plugins-uptime-checks] action install (up to date)

  • gem_package[sensu-plugins-uptime-checks] action install

I dont think this is so much with your use of chef but something else going wrong. Can you try running this manually /opt/sensu/embedded/bin/gem install sensu-plugins-uptime-checks -v 1.0.0 and verify it has the same output as below. If that fails then could you open an issue on the plugin repo and ping me on it?

Try: sudo /usr/bin/gem install forward -q --no-document -v "1.1.7" and rerun chef script.
