[chef] Re: Ohai EC2 plugin error

["Julian C. Dunn" < >]

So just to be clear: exceptions in Ohai are not necessarily indicative of an 
error. Some plugins raise exceptions if certain conditions are not met (like, 
if the GCE plugin is being run on a box not in Google Compute) and Ohai 
swallows all exceptions during regular operations.

Have you tried loading the plugin inside the chef-shell and poking at it to 
see what’s happening?

Most of the logic for grabbing metadata from EC2 is in here:
