I just upgrade dot 0.3.0 and I get the above error doing knife solo cook. Where should I get that file from and where do I put it?

I can't find any documentation on this.

@mapleoin Sorry for the problems. :(

The file is generated in v0.3.0 based on your knife.rb configurations.
Could you please run the command with -VV option to get the debug output. Maybe that gives us a hint what the problem is.

The upgrade documentation is here.

It turns out the chef-solo/dna.json file exists, but is a broken symbolic link.

My node file is a symbolic link so it seems it was copied to the target box unchanged. I think knife-solo should try to follow symbolic links when copying the node json file.

Ok, good that you found the root cause. I think I agree that symlinks should be followed. As windows doesn't even support them this would just unify the behavior. rsync for sure has many flags to choose from.

Anyway, as a special case, dna.json will anyway be generated if #275 and/or #232 are done.

Now that the directory structure on the node is not the same than
locally, the symlinks copied as is can result broken. So copy the
destination of the symlink.

Fixes matschaffer#279.
