[chef] Introduction + Question re: Error dropping nodes

[chris burnett < >]

Greetings.

I am new to this list. My name is Chris.

I was hoping to see if anyone might be familiar with an error I am getting when trying to drop nodes. If anyone has seen this before or has suggestions on how to fix, I would greatly appreciate it.

Error below.

Thx,
Chris

The following occurs when trying to drop any node. Registration deletions work, but deleting a node fails. It is not a syntax issue with the use of spaces in the names either. Everything worked fine at some point. My hunch suggests it's a gem issue or a json issue.
