Are you using Chef Server 12 or open-source server 11?

For windows ChefDK be sure to read yesterday's blog post on setting profile.

Cheers,

Peter

I didn't actually set ours up. But I believe the client.pem is obtained when your generate a new user on the server (using the gui)

Hi Kenneth,

I have setup on premises server. I'm missing the validation keys from /etc/chef-server/ I can see only a json file. How can I get client.pem and 1 more thing when I browser to http://<IP>:443. Its not showing the login page instead its showing the chefapi page and wants me to redirect to management console of opscode.

Your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Regards,
Sakhamuri.

I am going to recommend you get chefDK (from opscode/chef) for your workstation.

The server needs to happen first. Its fairly strait forward. Google will be your friend here. 

Onces it up, youll get obtaining some validation keys from it, youll need them on your workstation, aswell as for the nodes.

Setting up a node is known as "bootstrapping" which should also help in your googling.
