I am new to Chef and am trying to install chef-server on an AWS t1.micro instance based on RightScale CentOS5.4 32 bit ami. I am bootstrapping from Rubygems following the guide from the opscode wiki except I installed Rubygems 1.8.5 instead of 1.7.2. I got stuck at this:
# chef-solo -c /etc/chef/solo.rb -j ~/chef.json -r http://s3.amazonaws.com/chef-solo/bootstrap-latest.tar.gz

The file isn't there indeed. Is this a broken recipe or something else? How do I fix this?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
1) Downgrading to 1.7.2 did not help, same result
2) I also tried on a local machine with CentOS5.6 and Rubygems 1.8.5 and 1.7.2. Even more scary:
