Unable to (re)configure recently version (7.10.1&4)

How to Use GitLab
1

Hi, there.

I’m using gitlab-ce in Ubuntu 14.04.x(omnibus package).
When using ‘gitlab-ctl reconfigure’ or upgrading version, failed to reconfigure with chef.
However “gitlab-ctl restart” success, and is accessiable after reconfigure with error.
Is this safe?

output:

Chef Client failed. 8 resources updated in 17.389865273 seconds
[2015-05-13T05:43:36+09:00] ERROR: Invalid UTF-8 string: cannot encode to UTF-8
[2015-05-13T05:43:36+09:00] FATAL: Chef::Exceptions::ChildConvergeError: Chef run process exited unsuccessfully (exit code 1)

chef’s stacktrace below:
