I am using a brand new chef-server (not enterprise), and running chef-client throws a 403 forbidden error approximately every 1 out of 5 runs. Anyone know why this might occur?
chef-server 11.0.12
via getchef.com/chef/installchef-client 11.12.4
via rubygemruby 2.1.2
Debian Wheezy 7.5
The error:

Objects from cookbooks (template
s, cookbook_file
s) are lazily-loaded by default.
If it's a very long run, and it sounds like it is, then the runtime might exceed the maximum time window enforced by the server from the original authentication.
You can turn off lazy loading on the client by adding
no_lazy_load true
to your client.rb. See http://docs.opscode.com/config_rb_client.html
