[chef] Re: Re: Knife Bootstrap Hanging

[Jay Perry < >]

Hi AJ,

I am using the centos5-gem template.  I was able to figure out what it was hanging on though, see the code here.  When running the command by hand on the remote system it was prompting for several gems to overwrite.  This is probably because when the box was first created I ran 'gem install chef' but then removed it but the other dependencies weren't removed thus when the bootstrap ran it was continually prompting to override but not displaying it to the user except the first one.  This caused the run to hang.  I managed to get by it by running the 'gem update' manually then running the bootstrap again.

Thanks,
Jay
