The Berkshelf version at "/opt/chefdk/bin/berks" is invalid

[hiasel]

Hello,

i am on Mac OS X 10.11.6 and after following the installation instructions and running vagrant up i get the following error:

The Berkshelf version at "/opt/chefdk/bin/berks" is invalid.
Vagrant Berkshelf requires ~> 4.0, but the current version is 5.1.0.

Please download and install the latest version of the ChefDK from:

https://downloads.chef.io/chef-dk

and follow the installation instructions. Do not forget to add the ChefDK to
your PATH.

The ChefDK binaries are added to my path
echo $PATH: /opt/chefdk/bin:/Users/hmk/.chefdk/gem/ruby/2.3.0/bin:/opt/chefdk/embedded/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/opt/chefdk/gitbin

vagrant -v: Vagrant 1.8.5
which berks: /opt/chefdk/bin/berks
chef -v:

berks version: 5.1.0

I found a similar Issue Description here. I also tried completely reinstalling chefdk, vagrant but nothing helps.

Yeah,

I am having the same issue on Ubuntu 14.04 after upgrading chefDK and vagrant to the latest. Previously same Vagrant file was working fine

facing the same issue.

Actually I guess this is more a berks issue than a vagrant issue.

While they fix it I found a workaround that at least works for me.

Edit this file
~/.vagrant.d/gems/gems/vagrant-berkshelf-5.0.0/lib/vagrant-berkshelf/action/check.rb

where you see:
BERKS_REQUIREMENT = "~> 4.0"
change it to:
BERKS_REQUIREMENT = ">= 4.0"

As I said this is just a workaround.

[whyzdev]

same problem on Windows. Thanks to the workaround given by @microweb10 above. It works after editing the version in /Users/[username]/.vagrant.d/gems/gems/vagrant-berkshelf-5.0.0/lib/vagrant-berkshelf/action/check.rb.

The Vagrant Berkshelf plugin requires Berkshelf from the Chef Development Kit.
You can download the latest version of the Chef Development Kit from:

https://downloads.chef.io/chef-dk/

Installing Berkshelf via other methods is not officially supported.
All plugins are up to date.

$ cat ~/.vagrant.d/gems/2.2.5/gems/vagrant-berkshelf-5.1.1/lib/vagrant-berkshelf/action/check.rb
........

BERKS_REQUIREMENT = ">= 4.0"

Still I am getting the error. Is there anything I am missing ?

[jeffbyrnes]

@mazinmk this is an issue with vagrant-berkshelf, not this project. Please take a look at berkshelf/vagrant-berkshelf#316.

[mazinmk]

@jeffbyrnes Thank you. The above link as the fix.
