Could be this bug: http://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-2346 ;

Also, if your chef-expander logs are empty, that could be symptomatic of a 
different problem, namely that the node data isn't making it to chef-expander 
(via rabbitmq). You should definitely see one log entry per searchable object 
when you run `knife index rebuild`. You can adjust the log level of 
chef-expander on the fly with `chef-expanderctl log-level debug` and check 
the queue for a backlog with `chef-expanderctl queue-depth`. You can also 
ping chef-expander's workers with `chef-expanderctl node-status`.

HTH,
