[chef] Re: Chef.io certificate error causing client install error

[Christopher Webber < >]

Hey Justin,

Sorry you are having issues with this. While we work on a fix for this the workaround is to call --bootstrap-url https://www.opscode.com/chef/install.sh with your knife bootstrap command.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
