/etc/chef-server/chef-server.rb not there

After an otherwise apparently successful installation of package

 chef-server_11.0.8-1.ubuntu.12.04_amd64.deb

and after running

 # chef-server-ctl reconfigure

followed by

 # chef-server-ctl test
 # chef-server-ctl status

–all seemingly good and happy, why can I not find this /chef-server.rb
/on my Chef server host per
http://docs.opscode.com/config_rb_chef_server.html?

Much thanks to any response.

I don't know, but we don't have one either and our server's running
fine. RHEL 6.4.

Curious.

The config file is optional. If the default settings work for you, you don't need it at all.

Jeff and Daniel,

Profuse thanks for these responses! They're worth a great deal to me as
a newcomer to Chef.
