[chef] Re: wrong updates on server

[DV < >]

Maybe you are using wrong knife command and aren't updating correct data bag (instead creating a new one). Or if you have multiple Chef servers, you are talking to the wrong one.

Ohai Chefs, 

I have recently encountered problem where server doesn't get correct updates from data_bags which are placed on Chef server. On Chef server under data_bags I have one updated setup and when I run chef-client on a particular server that needs to be updated it doesn't. It just gets the old setup somehow in those files. To get the context it is ruby app which has database.yml and other files in config dir in order it could function.

 I don't understand this. If I have updated all data bags on Chef server and files are simply not updated with those new updates. I have even tried removing files that have to be updated so Chef could create new ones but I still got same old setup which is outdated and doesn't exist anymore.

Did you have any similar experiences?  I really don't know what to do with this.
