My knife.rb says:
knife[:secret_file] = "#{current_dir}/encrypted_data_bag_secret"
Try that.

My knife.rb, validator.pem, encrypted_data_bag_secret, are all on my <some_dir>/.chef directory. If it works for the validation_key property, why not the encrypted_data_bag_secret property? I did a puts and, you're correct, it's not expanding the <%= encrypted_data_bag_secret %>, but why?

It looks like your knife config is wrong. Can you puts the value of the encrypted_data_bag_secret after setting it? does that path expand properly?
"#{home_dir}/.chef/encrypted_data_bag_secret"
do you have a local variable called "home_dir" in your knife.rb ? this ruby string expansion relies on it. if nil, the path is probably borked.
chuck puts encrypted_data_bag_secret
in you config and see what it reckons

Thanks, but I was under the impression that the bootstrap (even the
default
template) will do this for me, using the same process it does to copy
the validator.pem locally to the node. I see this in the chef-full.erb
file
<% if encrypted_data_bag_secret -%>
cat > /etc/chef/encrypted_data_bag_secret <<'EOP'
<%= encrypted_data_bag_secret %>
EOP
chmod 0600 /etc/chef/encrypted_data_bag_secret
<% end -%>

You need to scp the file to your node at
/etc/chef/encrypted_data_bag_secret

The knife.rb, validator.pem, and encrypted_data_bag_secret files are
in <some_path>/.chef directory.

Are you using a custom bootstrap template? Check your template to
ensure that your template includes the encrypted_data_bag_secret logic
https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/master/lib/chef/knife/bootstrap/c
hef-full.erb#L46
Is the correct path being used in your knife config?

I’m encrypting my data bags, but now of course would want to use them
when I run my cookbooks in my nodes. This means that I’ll need to
decrypt my data bag, which in turn means I’ll need the key. One
solution I’ve been reading is to copy the key file in the node’s
/etc/chef/* directory during the bootstrap process. I read this
chef - [chef] Re: Handling of encrypted data bag keys, which
shows adding this line in the knife.rb file
encrypted_data_bag_secret "#{home_dir}/.chef/encrypted_data_bag_secret"
…which will then automagically copy the file over to the node.
However, I don’t see /etc/chef/encrypted_data_bag file in the boostrapped node.
What am I missing?
