Hi guys,

   I meet a 500 "Internal Server Error" (Net::HTTPFatalError) when I'm running chef client on ubuntu 9.04 / 8.04. 

   The following is the log:

 :~$ sudo chef-client -l debug
/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:2097:in `error!': 500 "Internal Server Error" (Net::HTTPFatalError)
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/rest.rb:233:in `run_request'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/rest.rb:85:in `get_rest'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/client.rb:342:in `sync_provider_files'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/client.rb:83:in `run'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/application/client.rb:186:in `run_application'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/application/client.rb:178:in `loop'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/application/client.rb:178:in `run_application'
    from /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/chef/application.rb:57:in `run'
    from /usr/bin/chef-client:25


What could this be?

Thanks
