Chef server installation
I wrote this study notes in the point of view of a system administrator on what to expect and any issues that can trip up your installation.
The original standallone installation instruction can be found at https://docs.chef.io/install_server.html
Server checks and preparations.
First thing to check is the if the ports http (80) and https (443) are open.
If not then enable the ports for access.
[root@centos7 chef]# firewall-cmd --list-ports
[root@centos7 chef]# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=80/tcp
success
[root@centos7 chef]# firewall-cmd ---permanent -add-port=443/tcp
success
[root@centos7 ~chef]# firewall-cmd --reload
success
[root@centos7 chef]# firewall-cmd --list-ports
80/tcp 443/tcp
Another issue that you might run into if the apache web server is already running you will need to disable this since uses the nginx web server.
[root@centos7 chef]# systemctl disable httpd
[root@centos7 chef]# systemctl stop httpd
Make sure the NTP daemon is running, if not you will need to configure and start it.
This is a critical step that can stop the client from authenticating. You might see some 401 errors later if the system clocks are not in sync.
[root@centos7 chef]# systemctl status ntpd.service
Chef server standalone installation
Now you are ready to start the chef standalone installation.
Download the package from https://downloads.chef.io/chef-server/.
[root@centos7 chef]# wget https://packages.chef.io/files/stable/chef-server/12.17.33/el/7/chef-ser...
[root@centos7 chef]# rpm -ivh chef-server-core-12.17.33-1.el7.x86_64.rpm
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl reconfigure
The ouput of the reconfigure command is very long and will take a considerable amount ot time to complete.
It's very verbose on what package is being installed and how it is configured.
[root@centos7 chef]# lsof -i :80
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
nginx 26104 root 13u IPv4 215177 0t0 TCP *:http (LISTEN)
nginx 26109 opscode 13u IPv4 215177 0t0 TCP *:http (LISTEN)
nginx 26110 opscode 13u IPv4 215177 0t0 TCP *:http (LISTEN)
[root@centos7 chef]# lsof -i :443
COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME
nginx 26104 root 14u IPv4 215178 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
nginx 26109 opscode 14u IPv4 215178 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
nginx 26110 opscode 14u IPv4 215178 0t0 TCP *:https (LISTEN)
This is just a check if the nginx servers is running.
You should check with a browser and point to the host on which you are installing the chef server,
You will see the following page.
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl user-create chef_admin Chef Admin chef@unixguide.net 'Chef123' --filename=/root/chef/chef_admin.pem
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl org-create unixguide "Unix Guide Net" --association chef_admin --filename=/root/chef/unixguide-validator.pem
[root@centos7 chef]# ls
chef_admin.pem chef-server-core-12.17.33-1.el7.x86_64.rpm unixguide-validator.pem
The two previous commands created the account and organization. It will also create the two PEM files.
You will need the validator pem file later for your clients.
Next thing is to install chef-manage package.
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl install chef-manage

Chef Client finished, 4/5 resources updated in 54 seconds
You should see the the chef-manage package was installed.
[root@centos7 chef]# rpm -qa | grep chef
chef-server-core-12.17.33-1.el7.x86_64
chef-manage-2.5.16-1.el7.x86_64
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl reconfigure
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-manage-ctl reconfigure
At this point you can check the web server with your browset and you see the following page.
The main difference here is the Chef logo now has the "manage" text underneath and it should redirect you to the login page.
The following commands installs and configures the packages opcodes-push-jobs and opscode-reporting.
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl reconfigure --accept-license
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl install opscode-push-jobs-server
[root@centos7 chef]# rpm -qa opscode-push-jobs-server
opscode-push-jobs-server-2.2.8-1.el7.x86_64
[root@centos7 chef]# opscode-push-jobs-server-ctl reconfigure
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl install opscode-reporting
[root@centos7 chef]# rpm -q opscode-reporting
opscode-reporting-1.8.0-1.el7.x86_64
[root@centos7 chef]# chef-server-ctl reconfigure
[root@centos7 chef]# opscode-reporting-ctl reconfigure
To use this software, you must agree to the terms of the software license agreement.
Press any key to continue.
Type 'yes' to accept the software license agreement, or anything else to cancel.
yes
To get to the point where you can type "yes" to accept the license agreement you have to press space and then the letter q.
At this point you chef server installation is done and you can login using the account you created earlier.
The following two services chef-manage-runsvdir-start.service and private_chef-runsvdir-start.service should be running.

Thank you for installing Chef!
[root@guest2 chef]# rpm -q chef
chef-14.3.37-1.el7.x86_64
You should create these 3 configuration files under the directory /etc/chef.
client.rb first-boot.json unixguide-validator.pem
You should replace the organization (unixguide) with your own organization.
[root@guest2 chef]# cat client.rb
log_level :info
log_location STDOUT
chef_server_url 'https://centos7.unixguide.net/organizations/unixguide'
validation_client_name 'unixguide-validator'
validation_key '/etc/chef/unixguide-validator.pem'
ssl_verify_mode :verify_none
verify_api_cert false
node_name "guest2"
Next create a role and named it as base, by clicking on the Policy, role and then create.
[root@guest2 chef]# cat first-boot.json
{
"run_list" :[
"role[base]"
]
}
This validator file was created earlier and was copied to the client.
If you are missing this file, you can reset the validator key by clicking on the Administration tab and then the organization.
The reset validation key is on the left hand Organizations menu.
[root@guest2 chef]# cat unixguide-validator.pem
