Cookbook cannot find get-pip.py when installing on a VM

[Dhiraj Thakur]

Hi,
I am a chef newbie so i don't know if i am installing this cookbook the right way but i get a

Error executing action `create` on resource 'cookbook_file[/var/chef/cache/get-pip.py]'

when i try to install this cookbook. I have checked by SSHing into the VM that the file get-pip.py is there.
I am using vagrant with virtualbox to manage my VM and berkshelf to manage my cookbook dependencies.

My Vagrantfile

# -*- mode: ruby -*-
# vi: set ft=ruby :

Vagrant.configure(2) do |config|
  config.vm.box = "trusty64"
  config.vm.box_url = "file://trusty-server-cloudimg-amd64-vagrant-disk1.box"

  config.omnibus.chef_version = :latest

  config.vm.network "forwarded_port", guest: 80, host: 8001
  config.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33.10"

  config.vm.synced_folder ".", "/home/vagrant/project"

  config.vm.provider "virtualbox" do |vb|
     vb.memory = "1024"
  end

  config.ssh.shell = "bash -c 'BASH_ENV=/etc/profile exec bash'" 

  config.vm.provision :chef_solo do |chef|
        chef.cookbooks_path = "~/.berkshelf/cookbooks"

        chef.add_recipe "apt"
        chef.add_recipe "build-essential"
        chef.add_recipe "git"
        chef.add_recipe "python"
   end
end

My Berksfile

source "https://supermarket.chef.io"

cookbook 'apt', '~> 2.6.1'
cookbook 'build-essential', '~> 2.1.3'
cookbook 'git', '~> 4.1.0'
cookbook 'python', '~> 1.4.6'
