[chef] RE: chef env error

[Adam Edwards < >]

Indra, you are hitting a known issue in Chef 11.14.2. The only workaround at the moment is to downgrade to Chef 11.12.8. We’re currently testing a fix for this issue as well: https://github.com/opscode/chef/pull/1774.

 

My apologies for the regression.

 

-Adam
