Chef- Solo

Chef – Solo

Chef-solo behaves as a standalone system, it is in itself a client & a server.

May be we need to create cookbooks under cookbooks folder.

You have to define EDITOR as environment variable.

Try

export EDITOR=$(which vi)

To persist this, add it to ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_profile.

Make sure you copy cookbook to chef-repo/cookbooks folder

inserting ‘ config.ssh.insert_key = false’ which resolved my issue.

If the known_hosts file already contains an entry for a different server with the same IP address, we get the error message

ERROR: Net::SSH::HostKeyMismatch: fingerprint … does not match for -…”

Open the ~/.ssh/known_hosts file and delete the line that contains the IP address of the server.

Installation.
