[chef] Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Anyone Have Chef Server 12 RC 4 Working on Centos 7

[Mark Mzyk < >]

As a member of the server team, I'll echo what Julian said. We're aware that the server does not setup properly on CentOS 7. Currently we're working towards the GA for Chef Server 12 (the chef-server-core package). Our progress on that is being tracked in a public Google doc[1].

The plan is once Chef Server 12 is out for us to begin figuring out what we need to update for CentOS 7. It's very much on our radar and is something we'll be addressing sooner rather than later, but the Chef Server 12 GA is up first.

That being said, you are welcome to open an issue about this against the chef-server repo[2] and detail the ways in which this doesn't work and what you've done to try and get it working. With a central tracking place we'll be able to more quickly complete this work with the information you provide and we might be able to give you information on how to overcome the final issues you're seeing before we get official support in place.

Thanks,

Mark Mzyk

RHEL7 is not currently supported as a platform for Chef Server 12. It
*will* be at some point in the future after GA, but not immediately at
GA.

I think I had the same issue on RHEL 7 with RC5 after I had tried to install
private-chef, deleted that and then installed chef-server-core. I went back and
rebuilt the server and it no longer has that issue, but goes on to hang at

- create symlink at /opt/opscode/service/rabbitmq to /opt/opscode/sv/rabbitmq

The symlink is created, but the reconfigure just hangs.
