12:00 <maize> hello guys

12:01 <auser> holla

12:01 <maize> is someone here to help me please :-) ?

12:01 <auser> what's up

12:02 <maize> just wait a moment...i gonna try to start my cloud to send you the error...

12:02 <auser> heh, k

12:02 <maize> what i can still say...that it's something with a generation of a hash by a json class ;-)

12:03 <auser> er... which version of PP are you running

12:04 <maize> hm the newest one...

12:04 <auser> k...

12:04 <maize> auser-poolparty (1.3.17)

12:05 <maize> and why are there two different gems? auser-poolparty and poolparty?

12:05 <auser> we are on 1.6.1

12:05 <auser> auser-poolparty is so retro

12:05 <auser> :)

12:05 <maize> oh :P

12:05 <auser> 'cause github moved to gemcutter

12:06 <maize> so i gonna uninstall auser-poolparty and install the new one...let's what gonna happen then

12:06 <auser> cool

12:07 <maize> here the error from the old version, if you want :P

12:07 <maize> Location: http://files.rubyforge.vm.bytemark.co.uk/rubygems/rubygems-/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-2.3.5/lib/active_support/json/encoders/hash.rb:45:in `as_json': undefined method `[]' for #<JSON::Ext::Generator::State:0x102157248> (NoMethodError)

12:07 <auser> erp

12:07 <auser> thanks?

12:07 <auser> heh

12:07 <auser> haven't seen that one before

12:08 <maize> ok hm with the new one i get this error

12:08 <maize> `method_missing': undefined method `has_directory' for #<PoolParty::Cloud:0x102710d38> (NoMethodError)

12:08 <auser> what's your cloud look like?

12:09 <maize> ok wait it's really simple...

12:09 <maize> http://pastebin.com/Tgg8M8Fy

12:10 <maize> it's a mixture out of your simple examples

12:10 <auser> PP no longer supports chef integrated with resources. Chef does it so much better than PP, so rather than fight their DSL, you can use a chef recipe

12:11 <auser> PoolParty is infrastructure building, Chef is resource allocation

12:11 <auser> where did you see those examples? we have to pull them down

12:11 <maize> ok, thanks, so which config properties do i put into the clouds.rb?

12:11 <auser> it's...

12:11 <auser> sec.

12:11 <maize> hm somewhere in wiki of your git project...

12:12 <maize> i try to refind

12:12 <auser> k

12:12 <maize> http://wiki.github.com/auser/poolparty/getting-rails-in-the-pool

12:12 <auser> eek

12:12 <auser> thanks

12:12 <maize> do you have a good example for a rails project?

12:13 <auser> it's even simpler now

12:13 <auser> sec.

12:14 <maize> i don

12:14 <maize> ups...

12:14 <auser> k refresh that page

12:14 <maize> i don't get it yet how chef works...do i have to start a server?

12:15 <auser> no, I tend to use solo

12:16 <maize> ok i just have to run once "chef-solo" or?

12:16 <auser> yep, except you should put it in your user-data script

12:16 <maize> thanks for the update of your rails example ;-)

12:16 <auser> to run it

12:17 <auser> totally

12:17 <auser> or

12:17 <auser> poolparty will run it for you

12:17 <auser> cloud configure

12:18 <maize> ok cool thanks ;-)

12:19 <maize> hm if i use cloud configure, i get this error "`method_missing': undefined method `chef' for #<PoolParty::Cloud:0x10270f7d0> (NoMethodError)"

12:20 <auser> cloud show does that give you the same error?

12:20 <maize> yes

12:20 <auser> it's in the cloud, right?

12:20 <auser> I mean

12:20 <auser> hm, yeah

12:20 <auser> cloud --version

12:21 <maize> PoolParty core loadtime: 0.13534

12:21 <maize> PoolParty release: 1.6.1

12:21 <maize> i didn't start my cloud yet

12:21 <auser> I know

12:21 <maize> i'll try cloud start

12:21 <auser> no, it's not that

12:21 <maize> ya, for cloud start it's the same

12:22 <auser> maybe this isn't in the next release

12:22 <auser> lemme look at the source

12:22 <auser> sec.

12:22 <maize> should i give the whole error msg?

12:22 <auser> nope

12:24 <auser> gem install

12:24 <maize> ah now ;-)

12:24 <maize> first attemp was still 1.6.1

12:25 <maize> ./clouds.rb:7: uninitialized constant FILE (NameError)

12:25 <maize> repo File.dirname(FILE)+"/chef_cloud/chef_repo"

12:25 <maize> ahh

12:25 <maize> sorry

12:25 <auser> __FILE__

12:26 <maize> hell yeah now it goes further ;-)

12:27 <maize> Attaching EBS volumes

12:27 <maize> `build_tmp_dir': uninitialized constant PoolParty::ChefSolo::FileUtils (NameError)

12:27 <maize> i get an error after attaching ebs volume

12:29 <auser> erp

12:29 <auser> sec.

12:29 <auser> heh

12:29 <maize> ok ;-)

12:31 <auser> k

12:31 <GitHub171> poolparty: master Ari Lerner * 24c0f38 (1 files in 1 dirs): Quick fix error with fileutils - http://bit.ly/96KOgP

12:31 <auser> update

12:33 <maize> ok...now i get this error: "`build_tmp_dir': ./chef_cloud/chef_repo chef repo directory does not exist (RuntimeError)"

12:33 <maize> do i have to create the dir /chef_cloud/chef_repo?

12:34 <maize> or what does this line do ? "repo File.dirname(__FILE__)+"/chef_cloud/chef_repo"" ?

12:34 <auser> no... that has to be a chef repos

12:34 <auser> like on opscode's wiki page

12:35 <maize> ok that's a point i don't really understand...is it a local repo on my chef server?

12:35 <auser> no, just on your local machine

12:38 <maize> hm so does poolparty create this dir for me or do i have to create it myself?

12:38 <maize> sorry i'm new in this area

12:38 <auser> no, no problem

12:38 <auser> no, poolparty will package it up and put it on your servers

12:38 <auser> but that's a chef repos containing chef recipes

12:39 <maize> ah ok now i understand...in this dir there are the recipes "passenger", "apache2", "rails" ?

12:39 <auser> yep

12:39 <auser> exactly

12:39 <maize> ah ok ;-)

12:43 <maize> i'm also new in ruby...does "File.dirname(__FILE__)" point to the clouds.rb?

12:43 <auser> no, that points to the directory that clouds.rb is in

12:46 <maize> ok, now i get this error:

12:46 <maize> `initialize': No such file or directory - /tmp/poolparty/poolparty/chef/etc/chef/roles/chef.json (Errno::ENOENT)

12:53 <maize> in my chef_repo are the three predefined recipes "apache2", "passenger" and "rails"

12:54 <auser> oh sorry

12:54 <auser> ech

12:54 <auser> um

12:54 <auser> that's weird, PP should create that

12:54 <auser> lemme see

12:55 <maize> i got the cookbooks from "git://github.com/opscode/cookbooks.git"

12:55 <auser> yeah, it's not chef

12:55 <auser> sec.

12:55 <maize> do poolparty fetch them for me itself ?

12:55 <maize> ah ok thanks

12:55 <auser> no

12:56 <auser> can you

12:56 <auser> ls that directory

12:56 <auser> ls /mtp/poolparty/poolparty/chef/etc/chef/roles

12:58 <maize> ok wait

12:58 <maize> where should mtp be?

13:01 <auser> mtp?

13:01 <auser> I mean't

13:01 <auser> tmp

13:01 <auser> haha

13:02 <auser> sorry, totally distracted

13:02 <maize> ah ok ;-)

13:02 <maize> there is no roles folder...

13:02 <maize> apache2 dna.json passenger rails solo.rb

13:03 <maize> only these files and folders under "/tmp/poolparty/poolparty/chef/etc/chef/"

13:04 <auser> is there a dna.json

13:04 <auser> k

13:04 <auser> yeah

13:05 <auser> try

13:05 <auser> rm -rf /tmp/poolparty/poolparty

13:05 <auser> then try again

13:05 <auser> be back this evening

13:05 <auser> sorry, gotta jet for a few

13:06 <maize> ok i'll try...thanks anyway ;-) you helped me a lot

13:06 <maize> ok i still get this error:

13:06 <maize> No such file or directory - /tmp/poolparty/poolparty/chef/etc/chef/roles/chef.json (Errno::ENOENT)
