Chef execute resource error while runs successfully

I am trying to unzip a file using Chef execute resource

execute "unzipping_webapp" do
  cwd "#{node[:config][:repo_dir]}"
  command <<-EOF
    unzip -o #{node[:config][:webapp_name]}
  EOF
end

Also tried

execute "unzipping webapp" do
    command "unzip -o #{node[:config][:webapp_name]}"
    cwd "#{node[:config][:repo_dir]}"
end

I am getting an error like

================================================================================
Error executing action `run` on resource 'execute[unzipping_webapp]'
================================================================================

Mixlib::ShellOut::ShellCommandFailed

When I am checking the system the file has been unzipped successfully.

I don't understand why my chef run is failing while things are executed correctly.

Has anyone faced this issue before or has a solution to it ?

The issue isn't with Chef, it is that unzip is returning a non-zero exit code, probably because of a malformed entry in the zipfile. You can try the poise-archive cookbook and see if that works any better.
