Is your ec2 instance is created in VPN? Well should not matter, but just to confirm.

VPC ? No, regular instance

 

Also what error you are getting, Is the error you are getting is : "“/usr/lib/ruby/1.8/net/http.rb:560:in `initialize': getaddrinfo: Name or service not known (SocketError)”

Client side: ERROR: Server returned error for https://chef.example.com/sandboxes/0000000000005feeed789cb9c3139a11, retrying 1/5 in 4s

Joseph, thanks for pointing that out, i couldn't understand what the issue is here, i'll try knife server plugin to see if it makes any configuration different

Hello,

Trying to configure chef server 11 on EC2 and i think i hit that internal redirect problem [0] also mentioned here [1]

( Can update roles, environments, but can't upload cookbooks )

I would like to know what are the dependencies for chef server 11 to just work.

My steps:

Boot ec2 instance

Point chef.example.com to public ip of that instance

Put "public_ip chef.example.com" to /etc/hosts ( can resolve chef.example.com anyway )

/etc/init.d/hostname start ( even reboot )

Get 11.0.8 and install

chef-server-ctl reconfigure

And problem starts

As suggested, tried overwriting it with chef-server.rb:

server_name = "chef.example.com"

api_fqdn server_name

nginx['url'] = "https://#{server_name}"

nginx['server_name'] = server_name

lb['fqdn'] = server_name

bookshelf['vip'] = server_name

reconfigured with no luck.

Thanks
