Have you modified anything else? Does this reproduce with a simple example, like a recipe with just one template resource using the `helpers’ function?

From your stack trace, it looks like you’re using 11.14.4, which has the method `helpers’ defined here: https://github.com/opscode/chef/blob/11.14.4/lib/chef/resource/template.rb#L169 (the feature was added in 11.0.0). I don’t recall any prior bug reports about this feature not working so you must have some unique set of conditions causing this to not work. In any case, the cookbook you’re using depends on this functionality so it won’t work if you comment that line.
