You read my mind, after running the server and webui in dev mode as the chef user, I found:
FATAL: Failed to access /usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/chef-server-api-0.9.14/log/merb.4000.pid, permission denied.

Changing the ownership of all the chef related gem dirs fixed everything.

Thanks,

Wow, we shouldn't be sticking any pidfiles there by default. Can you file a bug for this?  tickets.opscode.com

Thanks,

Hi Dan,

Appreciate the help. I have tried changing the permissions and even ownership (chef:root) for the pem files (webui and validation) to be very liberal (a+rw) which did not help. The following is the only thing that really appears in the logs (no errors):

merb : chef-server-webui : worker (port 4040) ~ 

merb : chef-server-webui : worker (port 4040) ~ Started request handling: Thu Apr 07 14:07:53 -0700 2011

merb : chef-server-webui : worker (port 4040) ~ Params: {"name"=>"admin", "action"=>"login_exec", "controller"=>"users", "password"=>"[FILTERED]", "form_submit"=>"login"}

Thanks again,

Try running both servers with debug logging to see if you get more info out of them. Perhaps your configuration file can only be read by root?
