Updating environments with Rake

Chef Infra (archive)
1

Hi,

I’ve added some environments to our Chef repository and (using the Rakefile
that comes with the Chef repo) I’m trying to update the Chef server.

The documentation about environments () states: “Each time you rake install
your Chef Repository, we will re-compile the corresponding JSON and store
it in the chef server.” however if I do a “rake install” the server doesn’t
seem to be updated with the changes. Is there something I’m missing?

Thanks,
Mark
