[chef] Recipe sequence question

[< >]

Hello, 

I have this recipe which installs tomcat, it fails the first time but works 
the
second time :) 

First time it fails because it can't create "/opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml,
because /opt/tomcat doesn't exist yet, my question is why template is getting
executed before 'install-tomcat ? and why it works fine the second time 

bash "install-java" do
  code "(cd /usr/local/src/; sh jdk-6u23-linux-x64.bin;mv jdk1.6.0_23/
/opt/java)"
  not_if "test -d /opt/java"
end
bash "install-tomcat" do
  code "(cd /usr/local/src/; tar -xzvf apache-tomcat-6.0.32.tar.gz ;mv
apache-tomcat-6.0.32  /opt/tomcat; chown -R tomcat:tomcat /opt/tomcat)"
  not_if "test -d /opt/tomcat"
end
template "/opt/tomcat/conf/server.xml" do
  source "server.xml.erb"
  owner "tomcat"
  group "tomcat"
  mode "0644"
end
