[chef] Re: Re: Issues with Template Files after upgrading to Chef 10.6

Actually the environment variable is not the chef  environment, its something 
set earlier up (this was used prior to Chef 10 and I have not converted 
over).  I just decided to go with mkdir_p because its what I knew but even if 
I switch to directory it still does not make sense why its refusing to create 
the template in that directory but its ok in any other.
