Thanks, Sean.

Man, this is not a good day for me and Chef. Now I'm suddenly getting this new 500 error when I run the chef client as well as if I do a knife cookbook upload when it gets to the INFO: Uploading files. Very weird is I see the files (recipes and templates) when I go to the web interface.

Unfortunately no, not currently.

Centos5 has a lot of old libraries that make it a real pain to keep up with.

I plan to provide bundler-ized RPMs for Centos6 (once it comes out)

They are currently available for fedora13 here:
