Hello,
I am encountering a few problems with my first installation of Chef. I have
installed Chef on a fresh install of Ubuntu 9.04, which uses universe
repositories (this is on a linode server, fyi).
After installation, I have run the following commands to get started with Chef:
aptitude update && aptitude safe-upgrade
aptitude install ubuntu-standard build-essential git-core
aptitude install ruby rubygems vim-ruby libreadline-ruby ruby1.8-dev
libopenssl-ruby1.8 rdoc ri irb wget ssl-cert vim
I have added /var/lib/gems/1.8/bin/ to my PATH.
Then I installed Chef:
gem sources -a http://gems.opscode.com && gem install ohai chef
I created ~/chef.json:
{ “chef”: { “server_fqdn”: “mylinode.server.com”}, “recipes”: “chef::server” }
And ~/solo.rb:
file_cache_path "/tmp/chef-solo"
cookbook_path “/tmp/chef-solo/cookbooks”
After that, I ran this as root:
chef-solo -c ~/solo.rb -j ~/chef.json -r
http://s3.amazonaws.com/chef-solo/bootstrap-latest.tar.gz
The installation went smoothly. The only things was that couchdb hanged after
starting. (See
https://cloud-support.engineyard.com/discussions/problems/284-deploy-hangs-on-running-custom-recipes-if-they-exist)
But, running “/etc/init.d/couchdb restart” in another terminal fixed that
issue, and Chef-server installation continued.
After installing Chef-server, I edited /etc/chef/server.rb to update
authorized_openid_providers and authorized_openid_identifiers. Then restarted
apache.
At that point, I can reach https://mylinode.server.com, I can log in using
openid, but when I am redirected back from my openid provider, I get a server
500 error.
The logs (/var/log/chef/server.log) contain this:

Did I miss something during the installation process? Any hint is welcome.
Thank you very much in advance.
Adrien.
