Chef Push: Invalid Key Errror

Hey,

We currently have an issue with Chef Push when trying to run a job. When running knife job start … we get the following error:

We’re unsure as to what the cause of the error may be, does anyone have any suggestions?

Any luck on this issue? I’m getting the same error with push-jobs

I was able to get around the issue by downgrading knife-push gem. Assuming you have the latest version 1.0.0, remove that Gem and install knife-push v 0.5.2. Then run knife rehash. With this setup knife job list and knife job status commands will error, but knife job start will work - this is the tradeoff till a fix arrives for this :).
