[chef] seeking variable template help

[Jennifer Fountain < >]

Here is what I am trying to do:

<% %w[zone1 zone1].each do |role| -%>

zone "<%= role %>.domain.com" in {

    type master;

    file "<%= role %>.domain.conf";

    <% if [:bind][role][:notify] != nil %>

        notify yes;

        also-notify { [<%= [:bind][role][:notify_ip] %>; };

    <% end %>

    allow-update { <%= [:bind][role][:allow_update_ip] %>; };

};

<% end %>

This works as expected:

<% %w[zone1 zone1].each do |role| -%>

zone "<%= role %>.domain.com" in {

    type master;

    file "<%= role %>.domain.conf";

};

<% end %>

This not so much:

    <% if [:bind][role][:notify] != nil %>

        notify yes;

        also-notify { [<%= [:bind][role][:notify_ip] %>; };

    <% end %>

    allow-update { <%= [:bind][role][:allow_update_ip] %>; };

}; 

I have tried several different variations but chef_zero is still throwing errors. 

eg: Chef::Mixin::Template::TemplateError (no implicit conversion of String into Integer) on line #68:

Is this not possible? Thanks for any advice!
