[chef] runtime error bootstrap

[James Dickenson < >]

Hello Chefs!

I'm new to this whole Chef thing and having some trouble with my initial install.  I've installed open source Chef 11.0.8-1 on a Ubuntu 12.04 amd64 system.  As well as Chef client 11.06-1 via deb package on another Ubuntu instance.

After some self inflicted issues everything seems to be okay except for it throws this error when I try to bootstrap a node.

/log.rb:97:in `level=': Log level must be one of :debug, :info, :warn, :error, or :fatal (ArgumentError)

Some googling leads me to this https://github.com/opscode/chef/pull/541 However it doesn't seem to do the trick as it still throws the same error.  Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong.

Thanks in advance, I'm sure its something easy.  I don't grok at the moment unfortunately.
