Kitchen escaping spaces in path names and then using them as literal (Windows)

Open minsis opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Description

Running kitchen using windows version of workstation

Running kitchen from a path that has a space in it, kitchen will then escape the path, then try to use the escaped path as a literal path in other commands which then fails the process.

In the screenshot you can see that it has identified the policy file, then has escaped the spaces in it, then tried to use that escaped path as a literal by quoting around it. If I run chef-cli.BAT install without the escaped path it generates the lock file just fine.
