[chef] Re: Chef-solo apche2 on centos 6.5 not working

[Daniel DeLeo < >]

How are you starting chef-solo? What does your chef-solo json file look like? 
It seems like you’re passing a role in with `chef-solo -j my_role.json`, 
which won’t work. You need to specify the run list in a json file that looks 
like this: http://docs.opscode.com/chef_solo.html#attributes  ;
