Permission denied error when passing dokken provisioner nodes_path for fixture node data

[sirosen]

This is either a missing feature or a bug on my specific platform.
The relevant config works under kitchen-docker with the chef_zero provisioner, so if it's a missing feature it should either be added or documented as missing.

In my .kitchen.dokken.yml, I want to specify:

provisioner:
  nodes_path: 'test/fixtures/nodes'

in order to load a fixture node object.

Under dokken as the driver and provisioner, I get this error:

If I take a look at that directory, I can see that, indeed, permissions are not friendly:

$ ls -ld /home/sirosen/.dokken/kitchen_sandbox/e8f3b31dec-client-setup-ubuntu-1604/nodes
drwx------  2 root    root    4096 Sep 24 21:15 /home/sirosen/.dokken/kitchen_sandbox/e8f3b31dec-client-setup-ubuntu-1604/nodes

I can manually sudo chown sirosen:sirosen that dir, and then it works to kitchen test.

This all works under kitchen-docker just fine.

I'm running Debian 9 (stretch), with docker installed and configured to allow sudo-less access.

Today this is working fine, though I haven't updated my version of dokken, chefdk, or anything else that I'd imagine to be relevant.

If nobody else is seeing this, perhaps this should be closed as a CNR.

I actually had this issue too. I had to go manually change the permissions.
