Steven,
It's not starting, or even reporting a status (ie not started).
root@chefserver-001:~# chef-server-ctl start
the ffi-yajl and yajl-ruby gems have incompatible C libyajl libs and should
not be loaded in the same Ruby VM
falling back to ffi which might work (or might not, no promises)
ffi-yajl/json_gem is deprecated, these monkeypatches will be dropped shortly
root@chefserver-001:~# chef-server-ctl status
the ffi-yajl and yajl-ruby gems have incompatible C libyajl libs and should
not be loaded in the same Ruby VM
falling back to ffi which might work (or might not, no promises)

root@chefserver-001:~# ps -ef | grep chef
root 2173 2148 0 18:39 pts/2 00:00:00 grep --color=auto chef
Nothing is logged anywhere that I can see.
root@chefserver-001:~# find /var/log -name "chef"
/var/log/chef
root@chefserver-001:~# ls -l /var/log/chef
total 4
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 972 Jan 15 17:19 client-initial.log
That client-initial.log file is unrelated.
So, it's not starting, reporting it's status when not started, or even
creating any log files that I can see. This is Ubuntu 14.04 with OS updates
as of a few days ago. Very current, clean install.
Douglas.

Hi Douglas,
The yajl warnings are a known issue
(Chef Server 12.0.1 - chef-server-ctl - ffi-yajl and yajl-ruby warning · Issue #53 · chef/chef-server · GitHub). However, I don't
think they should be preventing your Chef server from working.
chef-server-ctl status should output the warning followed by the
status of each service. Is it doing that? If so, which services are
down? It is likely that your server is not starting for a reason
unrelated to these warnings.
Sincerely,
Steven

Apparently, it does not work. The server does not start. A status returns
the same result.
What's going on? Solution?
