I'm currently using Chef's test-kitchen to test my configurations before applying them to my managed nodes.

I've specified Ubuntu 14.04 + 16.04, as well as Debian 7.11 + 8.8 as the platforms to be tested on. I am able to converge my configuration on the Ubuntu 14.04 + 16.04 instances, as well as the Debian 8.8 instance. When attempting to converge on the Debian 7.11 instance, I receive the following error message:

kitchen converge jenkins-complete-install-debian-711
-----> Starting Kitchen (v1.16.0)

It seems that:

/opt/chef/embedded/bin/ruby: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.14' not found (required by /opt/chef/embedded/lib/libruby.so.2.4)

is the culprit, however I'm not sure what may be causing this error. It looks like Debian 7.11 is supported according to the bento project on github, so I'd imagine there's something I need to modify on my side to get this to work. Does anybody have any experience using test-kitchen with Debian 7.11?

Just as a followup for anybody who may also run across this issue, I've found the answer. Per Chef's Github repo, it looks like the fix for this issue is clearing out the ~/.kitchen/cache directory.

Once I cleared this directory of all files i was able to converge my run list on Debian 7.11 as well as Debian 8.8.

Faced with the same error issue with kitchen dokken. Fixed by removal of existed chef containers:

$ docker ps -a
CONTAINER ID   IMAGE              COMMAND   CREATED        STATUS    PORTS     NAMES
391bb1e8fb3b   chef/chef:12       "true"    12 hours ago   Created             chef-12

$ docker rm chef-12

after that, issue dissapeared
