How to specify path.data and path.logs?

[cynosureabu]

I could not find a sample code for specifying the data path and logs path. In my .json
"elasticsearch": {
"version": "1.0.1",
"user": "targeting",
"cluster_name": "elasticsearch_targeting",
"download_url": "https://download.elasticsearch.org/elasticsearch/elasticsearch/elasticsearch-1.0.1.tar.gz",
"filename": "elasticsearch-1.0.1.tar.giz",
"path:": {
"data": "/home/targeting/elasticsearch/data",
"logs": "/home/targeting/elasticsearch/logs"
}
}

But when I check file
/usr/local/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml

It still points to
path.conf: /usr/local/etc/elasticsearch
path.data: /usr/local/var/data/elasticsearch
path.logs: /usr/local/var/log/elasticsearch

Any idea?
Thanks,
Chen

I worked around this issue, by adding a "dir" in the config file. After that, the data/logs locations are changed correctly.

Hello! It sounds like you were able to get this working. In the meantime, we've re-written the cookbook using libraries that expose resources and providers, so you shouldn't see this problem on the newer version. Hope this helps!
