You have mail in /var/spool/mail/deploy

cookbook_file "/local_app/account-rest.properties" do

  source "account-rest.properties"

  mode 0777

  owner "deploy"

  group "deploy"

end

ruby_block "acc-deploy-host" do

block do

host=`hostname -s`

node.set[:acc-deploy] = `cat /local_app/account-rest.properties | grep -i "#{host}" | cut -d":" -f2 `

puts "value is #{node[:acc-deploy]}"

end

action :create

end

node['acc-deploy'].each do |x|

puts #x

end

In the first case you use a dash node.set[:acc-deploy] 

In the second case you are using underscore node['acc_deploy'].each 

Additionally I would recommend standardizing on symbols vs strings

Hopefully that works.
