Hi,

I'm trying to update all my chef-clients trough a chef recipe, I'm using a modified recipe based on opscode's chef cookbook,

What I'm trying to do is pretty simple:

https://gist.github.com/2fd4fce806aa0c33edb0

I'm having problems on the first chef run, I use to login to the machine and run chef-client as root, then the run hangs (chef does not get restarted) and I get the following error:

[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:02 +0000] INFO: Installing gem_package[chef] version 0.9.8
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:24 +0000] INFO: gem_package[chef] sending restart action to service[chef-client] (immediate)
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:24 +0000] FATAL: SIGTERM received, stopping
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:24 +0000] ERROR: Running exception handlers
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:24 +0000] ERROR: Exception handlers complete
[Mon, 20 Sep 2010 20:33:24 +0000] ERROR: Re-raising exception: SystemExit - exit

If I restart chef as delayed on the recipe I have the same problem but at the end of the run.

I am looking some help on the debug or some (better) strategies on auto updating chef through minor releases.

Thanks.
