I’m running chef .10.2-2 on Ubuntu 11.04 and attempting to use it with Amazon’s
auto scaling. I’m able to create the client.rb and pass the validation.pem but
chef-client appears to ignore all and try to connect to localhost:4000. Please
see the following:
cat /etc/chef/client.rb
log_level :info
log_location "/var/log/chef/client.log"
ssl_verify_mode :verify_none
validation_client_name "chef-validator"
validation_key "/etc/chef/validation.pem"
client_key "/etc/chef/client.pem"
chef_server_url "http://chef.pri.mydomain.com:4000"
file_cache_path "/var/cache/chef"
file_backup_path "/var/backups/chef"
pid_file "/var/run/chef/client.pid"
node_name “i-7b44f41a”
cat /var/log/chef/client.log

That doesn't look like the output from Chef 0.10, and the line numbers of the methods don't match up quite right. I'm not sure this has anything to do with your problem but it might. Also, what's the exact version of ruby you have?
Thanks,
