Connecting to host testchefserver.example.com:443
ERROR: The SSL certificate of testchefserver.example.com could not be verified
Certificate issuer data: /C=US/ST=WA/L=Seattle/O=YouCorp/OU=Operations/CN=testchefserver.example.com/emailAddress=you@example.com

Configuration Info:

OpenSSL Configuration:
* Version: OpenSSL 1.0.1m 19 Mar 2015
* Certificate file: /opt/chef/embedded/ssl/cert.pem
* Certificate directory: /opt/chef/embedded/ssl/certs
Chef SSL Configuration:
* ssl_ca_path: nil
* ssl_ca_file: nil
* trusted_certs_dir: "/root/.chef/trusted_certs"

TO FIX THIS ERROR:

If the server you are connecting to uses a self-signed certificate, you must
configure chef to trust that server's certificate.

By default, the certificate is stored in the following location on the host
where your chef-server runs:

  /var/opt/chef-server/nginx/ca/SERVER_HOSTNAME.crt

Copy that file to you trusted_certs_dir (currently: /root/.chef/trusted_certs)
using SSH/SCP or some other secure method, then re-run this command to confirm
that the server's certificate is now trusted.
