Chef node not registering with server

I am trying to register my client to the server, but it gives following error on running below command:

[root@vm ~]# chef-client -S https://chef-server.example.com -K /etc/chef/chef-validator.pem

{:config_missing=>true}

回答1:

I exactly encountered same issue and after struggling some time, I found out that it is a proxy problem.

I am behind a corporate proxy and the error I got "503: Service Unavailable" is not something coming from Chef Server, rather it is coming from the proxy server.

Anyway, using "no_proxy" option and adding Chef Server's fqdn solved the issue.

Make sure knife commands from your workstation are working first. knife client list is a basic one you can use to test your server installation. It sounds like Chef Server is not installed correctly or was unable to start some components.
