I'm currently trying to get familiar with Chef and thought this here might be a good exercise. Everything works as I try in with Vagrant in my local machine.\r\n\r\nBut if I try to run it on a \"real\" machine I'm struggling to overwrite the attribute values. Tried a `solo.json ` file where I added the database configuration to use postgresql. This was passed in by -j. But the cookbook always tries to install mysql but gives me an error.\r\n\r\n```\r\n[2015-01-27T01:39:45-05:00] DEBUG: Loading Recipe mysql::server via include_recipe\r\n\r\n================================================================================\r\nRecipe Compile Error\r\n================================================================================\r\n\r\nChef::Exceptions::RecipeNotFound\r\n--------------------------------\r\ncould not find recipe server for cookbook mysql\r\n```\r\n\r\nSo I tried to create data bags for the attributes. But same result.\r\n\r\nWhere does the attribute configuration go to make it run with chef solo?"}}
