Trouble working with chef-solo

Hi all,

I am trying to learn about chef-solo. I have successfully run a recipe using it. Now, I am moving further and learning my way with knife. I have an Ubuntu 12.04 machine. I am trying to bootstrap the same node (on which chef is installed). I am completely newbie in this area, and couldn’t find much help on internet. I want to run some cookbooks that need to add a role to a node.

As it’s an experimental setup, I want to assign the role to the same node. I understand I need to bootstrap the node first. But when I try to run “knife bootstrap node”, I get the following error:

peeyush-virtual-machine Starting Chef Client, version 11.8.2

Do you actually have the chef-server software installed on
'peeyush-virtual-machine' ?
