Were currently switching to enabling the windows chef-client service.

Our test are showing that the chef 12.4.1 windows service ignores the log_location directive in the client.rb file.

 

Docs say:

 

After the chef-client is configured to run as a service, the default file path is: c:\chef\chef-client.log.

 

Docs don’t say:

 

Where and how to change it from the default.
