Chapter 9, chef server install errors out. #5
Description
Issue
Example 9-2 has a url to download private chef: 'https://s3.amazonaws.com/opscode-private-chef/el/6/x86_64/private-chef-11.1.8-1.el6.x86_64.rpm'.
I get the following error output when I attempt to run kitchen converge:
Recipe: enterprise-chef::default
* remote_file[/tmp/kitchen/cache/private-chef-11.1.8-1.el6.x86_64.rpm] action create

Chef::Exceptions::ContentLengthMismatch

Response body length 620263087 does not match HTTP Content-Length header 939968311.
This error is most often caused by network issues (proxies, etc) outside of chef-client.

Potential Solution
In order to get around this issue, I grabbed the url to the latest version of chef server (https://packages.chef.io/stable/el/6/chef-server-core-12.6.0-1.el6.x86_64.rpm) from the chef website.
I then used the following command after running kitchen login to verify the installation occurred successfully:
rpm -q chef-server-core
As I'm new to chef and it's infrastructure, I'm not certain this is the solution. Can you confirm this will work? I'm sure I'll find out as I continue to progress in the book!
