Looks like installing knife ec2 may have updated or changed your gems installation. Try updating chef-server, or reinstalling gems?

Also, generally knife ec2 is installed on a workstation machine (like your desk computer) rather than the chef server.. are you running everything from one instance?

change I made is that I installed knife ec2.
