[chef] Re: Chef Server start problem

1) chef server does not belong to any environment, you can run chef client in the server which may belong to some environment

2) which version you are using? starting chef 11, servers are distributed as omnibus installer. And they are written in erlang, it relatively easy to install / manage them

Hello,

  I am trying to configure Chef server piece-by-piece. I have successfully
installed all the required components. When I try to start the Chef Server
using the command "sudo chef-server -N -e production", I get the following
error:
