A new oddity I noticed related to this. If the recipe hangs (I just happened to discover this since I accidentally placed the wrong recipe before the ones that are creating the incorrect file which created the wrong config file causing this recipe to hang before completion) and I look at the file it creates, it is CORRECT!

I know, I know, this is insane. But its really happening.. Once I correct the recipes so the one that hangs completes I find it has the old wrong file again :(, I've tried this many times now to make sure it is really happening.

OK, should be my last problem for a while! I see the template cached file under /var/chef/cache/cookbooks/ and it has a piece like this:

/erlexec -smp enable -init_debug

But when the file is written to disk from the template (and this is how the file was before I updated the template and uploaded to the repo) is:

/erlexec -init_debug

How is this possible??
