[chef] New errors after upgrading Chef clients to 11.6

[Russell Bateman < >]

I've upgraded to 11.6 and am getting the following out of chef-client. I though I'd paste the whole thing since it's short. I did try it with :debug in client.rb, but I didn't see anything different. It's trying to contact a URL on the Chef server that's not found. I'm not sure why it's trying http://chef/bookshelf instead of https://192.168.0.24.

(Note that, on another node, I'm getting a "Missing Cookbooks" error, which is perfect since the cookbook is missing, but running chef-client on that node appears to be working.)

Has anyone a suggestion? I see this unresolved ticket: https://tickets.opscode.com/browse/CHEF-4069.

Many thanks.
