My concern would be that I was having lots of issues getting apache2 and php7.0 working. This adds another layer of complexity.</div><div>Chef doesn't seem to use postgresql as primary database, websites seem to have to have wordpress (I've seen a few too many security bulletins about that one) and then they like the cloud (something I'm not going to touch).</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for the idea though - - - had never heard of 'chef'.</div><div><br></div><div>Dee</div></div></div></div>
