Chef 11 install problem

Hi Chefs!
Its a bit like Xmas today with the new release. I was excited to give
it a try so i build a brand new CentOS 6.3 VM, installed the OmniBus
RPM and ran “chef-server-ctl reconfigure”.

Things were going well until it hit the bootstrap recipe…

I verified iptables and selinux are both “off”. Port 8000 is open and
associated with an ErChef process. Anyone else run into this?

I had to downgrade because I could not do any client connecting to the server

Thanks for the report. We're attempting to reproduce the issue and will send an update later on.

If you'd like to provide some details on the trouble you encounted, perhaps we can help get you going with Chef 11.

Great! Thanks Seth!

My environment is still in development, I believe the problem is not
with version 11, but due to the tests I'm doing

Personally, I have some big problems updating Chef Server from 10.18.2 to
11.04-1 on Ubuntu server 12.04 LTS : RabbitMQ doesn't want to start.

Here is the end of the installation transcript :

Philippe-

I had a similar issue on CentOS 5.8. I haven't yet dug into the root cause (though I plan to) but I found that RabbitMQ was already running (outside of runit), so runit kept starting a second copy and failing. I killed off the processes and ran chef-server-ctl reconfigure and all was well.

Hi Seth

I figured out what the issue was. Turns out my host didnt get a DNS
entry when it was created. After creating an entry in /etc/hosts
everything started working.
