[chef] web_app.conf.erb Template Not Found

[< >]

I'm writing a cookbook to deploy  a rails app.  I'm using the deploy resource
then using the web_app definition to create the passenger conf file.

The client error's out and the server log shows:
 ~ Preferred template list: {}
 ~ Searching for preferred file in
 ~ Looking for host-domU-12-31-39-00-31-62.compute-1.internal/web_app.conf.erb
 ~ Looking for centos-5.4/web_app.conf.erb
 ~ Looking for centos/web_app.conf.erb
 ~ Looking for default/web_app.conf.erb
merb : worker (port 4000) ~ Cannot find a preferred file for web_app.conf.erb!
- (Chef::Exceptions::FileNotFound)
/usr/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/chef-0.7.14/lib/chef/mixin/find_preferred_file.rb:87:in
`find_preferred_file'

My first thought was that since I have the standard cookbooks and my own
cookbooks in seperate repo's this might be the root cause, but I copied the
apache and passenger cookbooks into the same repo where I have my 'local'
cookbooks but that didn't seem to help.

Any one have any thoughts on how to fix?

Thanks,

Alex




RECIPE:

include_recipe "apache2"
include_recipe "passenger_apache2"

# ..snipped the deploy part

web_app node[:app_name] do  
  docroot "/src/apps/#{node[:app_name]}/current/public"  
  server_name "example.com"
  rails_env "production"
end
