Bump!  Same issue with our organization.

I doubt it's limited to remote_file only (you showed it's an issue with the file resource as well) I just didn't have time to figure out if it's affecting notifications in general or only specific resources.

It's a big blocker for us as well.  Had to squash installing 10.10 until it gets worked out.

Yikes, this looks like a blocker for me using 10.10... I rely on notifications in remote_files resources like its going out of style :)   Nice catch Mike!

Hi,

I am running in to an odd problem with notification in Chef 10.10, it seems suddenly this block of code is not working as expected:

execute "set-hostname" do

  command "hostname --file /etc/hostname"

  action :nothing

end

file "/etc/hostname" do

  content "#{new_hostname}"

  notifies :run, "execute[set-hostname]", :immediately

end

In the chef log I get this:

.compute-1.amazonaws.com [Fri, 25 May 2012 20:13:57 +0000] INFO: Processing execute[set-hostname] action nothing (gridiron-deploy::default line 44)
.compute-1.amazonaws.com [Fri, 25 May 2012 20:13:57 +0000] INFO: Processing file[/etc/hostname] action create (gridiron-deploy::default line 49)
.compute-1.amazonaws.com [Fri, 25 May 2012 20:13:57 +0000] INFO: file[/etc/hostname] backed up to /var/chef/backup/etc/hostname.chef-20120525201357
.compute-1.amazonaws.com [Fri, 25 May 2012 20:13:57 +0000] INFO: file[/etc/hostname] contents updated

But when I login to the box the hostname is not set.  Inspecting /etc/hostname show its populated with the correct info and running hostname --file /etc/hostname on the box works but it seems via Chef its no go.  On a local box using shef it works fine.  Beside me getting hack-y and making it a bash command any ideas?
