[chef] Chef 11 server on ubuntu 12.04 pedant fails

[< >]

I'm looking for pointers on how to debug my problem with chef server 11 on
ubuntu 12.04.

I've tried the following versions:

11.0.4
11.0.6
11.0.8
11.0.10

and in every case:

The package installs successfully.
The command "chef-server-ctl reconfigure" completes successfully
The command "chef-server-ctl test" fails with the following output:
