> So our question is, this cookbook tested in windows 07  and windows server 08? 


Please need your help to fix this.

Sorry, we are using the following version of the chocolatey cookbook.

"chocolatey": "= 1.2.1",

Hi @suniilsync - just coming across this issue. I'm not sure who is monitoring the cookbook these days. Anyway, did you determine the issue?

[sunilvishvakarma]

@ferventcoder - We couldn't able to rectify it, and migrated all our SVN code to Git, hence I dint get a chance to look into this.
