I've got the same error. Any ideas for this?

[max-konin]

I decided to give up whenever)

[timscott]

Same issue here. I guess EB_CONFIG_APP_SUPPORT env variable is not. Are we meant to set it somehwhere?

[CyborgMaster]

I have a fork that I believe solves this problem.

[timscott]

@CyborgMaster - Tried your fork. Same error:

@timscott Did you use the elastic beanstalk config yaml file there? It had to be changed substantially.

[timscott]

@CyborgMaster - No I hadn't. However, after I regenerated cron.config with wheneverize-eb . I get the same error.

I noticed what I thought was the problem. This line expects EB_CONFIG_APP_SUPPORT, but here you set EB_CONFIG_SUPPORT. However, I changed the config file to set EB_CONFIG_APP_SUPPORT, and I still get the same error.

[CyborgMaster]

Looks like you were looking at the wrong branch. My pull request comes off of the remove-aws-sdk-2 branch. On that branch the variable is set here. I based my changes on someone else work and was trying to get him credit by merging my tweaks with his and letting him make the pull request back into the main repo, but he never merged my stuff. I'll make a pull request to the main repo now.

[timscott]

Okay switched that branch. Now I get this. Not sure what to make of it.

Looks like you haven't installed the gem from my branch yet...

[timscott]

@CyborgMaster - From my Gemfile.lock:

  remote: git://github.com/CyborgMaster/whenever-elasticbeanstalk.git
  revision: 13d556186ecc1486aa2dbeadfa3e118563c2f473
  branch: remove-aws-sdk-2
  specs:
    whenever-elasticbeanstalk (1.1.6)
      aws-sdk-v1 (>= 1.50.0)
      whenever (~> 0.9.2)

[CyborgMaster]

@timscott, looks right. Don't know anything about that specific error. Seems like a weird interaction with bundler and git. Have you installed any other gems from github? You need to modify your config files to enable that.

[ghost]

thanks @CyborgMaster ... your scripts worked for me!

@timscott I used the ssh link to the github repository and it worked. Also you need to make sure that the correct cron.config file is deployed to the instance. check the source file @CyborgMaster shared and verify it

[CyborgMaster]

@nkaviani, oh good. It seemed like a few people had tried to use my stuff and it wasn't working. I'm glad to see it helped someone.

[karluiz]

thanks! @CyborgMaster
