Winrm

Anyone seen this error message? I had it working (of course with the hosted solution); however, this is the first windows server I’m launching hosting my open source server in house:

Could this be from misconfigured WinRM? I followed the instructions just as I did with previous servers. The only difference is now I am hosting the chef server vs. having it hosted.

To clarify, your authentication credentials are being rejected by the Chef server. So either you have a bad client key or node name.

To test things out with knife, you can try something like knife node list -s CHEF_SERVER_URL -u CLIENT_NAME -k PATH_TO_CLIENT_KEY

I've seen weird problems with WinRM. For example, see KNIFE-22 [1], KNIFE-298 [2], and KNIFE-337 [3].

[2] https://tickets.opscode.com/browse/KNIFE-298
[3] https://tickets.opscode.com/browse/KNIFE-337

Daniel, that could be a possibility. I migrated from chef hosted to chef open source, I'll touch base with you tomorrow -

Thanks,

Daniel,

I think you got it. I believe when I ported over it messed with the permission of the client key. I was able to deploy a new server, ill try the ones I have been having issues with.
