no implicit conversion of Chef::DelayedEvaluator into String
richardlock opened this issue · 2 comments
Hi,
When using chef-client > 12.6, the logrotate_app definition gives TypeError:
no implicit conversion of Chef::DelayedEvaluator into String
This is happening when I use the chef-client cookbook which uses the logrotate cookbook.
Recipe: logrotate::default
* yum_package[logrotate] action install (up to date)
* directory[/etc/logrotate.d] action create (up to date)
Recipe: chef-client::config
* template[/etc/logrotate.d/chef-client] action create
================================================================================
Error executing action `create` on resource 'template[/etc/logrotate.d/chef-client]'

Chef Client failed.
If I reinstall chef-client 12.6.x on the node, it completes the chef-client run successfully. If I then upgrade to a later chef-client version, the chef-client run fails again. Is this a known issue?
Thanks, Richard
