Chef-server stops responding ever other request

Hi List,

maybe you can help me wit this? I’ve set up a “chef playground” with a
workstation, a server (+UI) and two clients. While everything works so far the
chef-server is making huge problems. I currently have to restart it after
every REST-call because it won’t react to anything afterwards (until
restarted)

Example: I add a client (success) afterwards I try to add a cookbook (no
response). Even a simple client connect is enough to stop it

according to ps and netstat the merb process is still running and listening to
port 4000. And I can telnet to the port.

chef-server just hangs and is not responding to anything. Not even the gui.
After restart it’s working again for one request.

chef-server is started like this:

/usr/local/bin/chef-server -d -e ${ENVIRONMENT}

where ENVIRONMENT is “production”

The “server.rb” is as follows
---------------- server.rb -------------------
log_level :debug

ssl_verify_mode :verify_none

Hi,

time is a bit on the short side right now, but I had similar problems with chef-server at first and did a bit of debugging at that time. I've seen that each time an amqp message gets sent/delivered/processed (not sure when), the whole environment stopped working.
The reason behind all this: My rabbitmq-server package was way too new for chef-server. I've used the latest stable packages from rabbitmq's own apt repository. After downgrading to 2.6.1 everything went back to normal.

Within the rabbitmq changelog (RabbitMQ Changelog — RabbitMQ) there're two interesting points which could be related:

  • order preserved of messages re-queued for a consumer
  • clients accept a new "amqp" URI scheme for connections

restarted)

Example: I add a client (success) afterwards I try to add a cookbook (no
response). Even a simple client connect is enough to stop it

according to ps and netstat the merb process is still running and listening to
port 4000. And I can telnet to the port.

chef-server just hangs and is not responding to anything. Not even the gui.
After restart it's working again for one request.

chef-server is started like this:

/usr/local/bin/chef-server -d -e ${ENVIRONMENT}

where ENVIRONMENT is "production"

The "server.rb" is as follows
---------------- server.rb -------------------
log_level :debug

When I start it undaemonized it logs just this when it hangs:
