Vagrant Chef solo can't access cookbooks

I have a problem that seems to be similar to this: Berkshelf cookbooks are not being copied to the Vagrant directory, but I believe it is distinct.

When I run a vagrant provision, it fails, claiming it could not load the first cookbook it tried:

==> default: [2014-09-02T12:43:07+00:00] ERROR: Cookbook apt not found. If you're loading apt fr
om another cookbook, make sure you configure the dependency in your metadata

On load, I saw the messages that the appropriate shared folders were being mounted:

==> default: Mounting shared folders...
    default: /var/www => D:/Rob/VMs/vdd/data
    default: /vagrant => D:/Rob/VMs/vdd
    default: /tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-2/roles => D:/Rob/VMs/vdd/chef/roles
    default: /tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-1/cookbooks => C:/Users/29007/.berkshelf/default/vagr
ant/berkshelf-20140822-13996-1eqat7m-default
    default: /tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-3/data_bags => D:/Rob/VMs/vdd/chef/data_bags

And they do appear to be there:

vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-1/cookbooks$ pwd
/tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-1/cookbooks
vagrant@vagrant-ubuntu-trusty-64:/tmp/vagrant-chef-3/chef-solo-1/cookbooks$ ls
apache2          chef-sugar  logrotate       php         yum
apt              database    my-cookbook     postgresql  yum-epel
aws              dmg         mysql           runit       yum-mysql-community
Berksfile.lock   git         mysql-chef_gem  windows
build-essential  iis         openssl         xfs
chef_handler     iptables    pacman          xml

My guess is that is not trying to load them from that location, but rather from the cookbooks in the vagrant directory on the host machine. However, I have copies of all those cookbooks there as well (I was intending to configure this so that it wouldn't have a dependency on Berkshelf).

Here is the cookbook config from my solo.rb (mounted as /vagrant/chef/solo.rb):

cookbook_path ["/vagrant/chef/cookbooks/berks", "/vagrant/chef/cookbooks/core", "/vagrant/chef/cookbooks/custom"]

It would seem that my solo.rb file is not being read perhaps?

After a few research about it I think your problem would come from HERE

The vagrant-berkshelf plugin looks some ENV vars to get chef config and if I understood it properly it will override any chef-solo provisionning you were using before.

Your best bet to pinpoint the root cause of all of this would be to run vagrant with the VAGRANT_LOG env variable set to info set VAGRANT_LOG=info and then vagrant provision

You should be able to get the exact location of the generated client.rb file to inspect it within the VM and see what path is used for cookbooks.

Hope it will help
