knife bootstrap returning error - amazon-web-services

Question

Running:
knife bootstrap ec2-54-221-16-158.compute-1.amazonaws.com --sudo -x chef -P chef -N server --run-list 'role[inicial]'
My recipes/default.rb:
script "teste de script" do
interpreter "bash"
cwd "/home/ubuntu"
code <<-EOH
as-create-launch-config LcTiagoN --image-id ami-0521316c --instance-type t1.micro --key tiagov
EOH
end
My roles/inicial.rb:
name "inicial"
run_list "recipe[my_cookbook]"
The following error occurs below:
ShellOut::ShellCommandFailed←[
0m
------------------------------------←[
0m
Expected process to exit with [0], but
received '127'
---- Begin output of "bash" "/tmp/che
f-script20140501-8463-12uvvvl" ----
STDOUT:
STDERR: /tmp/chef-script20140501-8463-
12uvvvl: line 1: as-create-launch-config: command not found
---- End output of "bash" "/tmp/chef-
script20140501-8463-12uvvvl" ----
However when I run the same command (as-create-launch-config LcTiagoN --image-id ami-0521316c --instance-type t1.micro --key tiagov) directly logged in the Amazon instance, the command is executed successfully.
Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Sounds like a problem with the PATH environment. Did you login as "chef" when running the as-create-launch-config command manually?
Best advice I can offer is to include the full path to the command in the bash script. For example:
script "teste de script" do
..
code <<-EOH
/path/to/this/cmd/as-create-launch-config ...
EOH
end
