Hi,
I am running chef solo based on this wiki. I am new to chef solo.

I don't know why chef-solo would be looking for the client.pem. That
should only be needed if you were running chef-client to connect to a chef
server. Can we see your solo.rb contents?

I do have hosted chef but I just want to bootstrap my local machine
with recipes. Can I just knife bootstrap 106.187.95.170 -x root -P
temp --sudo -r "role[monitor_server]" -E local -N localhost
Or should i use chef solo. What is best practice here?
Thanks

I wonder if somehow chef-solo is getting confused by your hosted chef
configuration. That's just speculation and since that's all I have to
offer I'll just hope someone more knowledgeable has something to offer
about your error.
It seems like the decision between managing your local machine with
chef-client or using chef-solo is just up to you. Hosted chef with
chef-client of course keeps the cookbooks and config off your local machine
so it's easy to replace your local machine and use chef to configure it
like your old machine if you ever wanted to.
If you wanted to use chef-client to manage your local machine I don't think
you'd need to bootstrap chef since you already have chef installed on your
local machine right? I think you would just need to have the hosted chef
validation key and run chef-client the first time with "-K
validation_key_path" to register your machine with the chef server. That
assumes you have other parameters (chef server url) configured correctly in
client.rb.
I hope that's at least somewhat helpful.
