I am having the same issue using the same recipe. Were you able to figure it out? The recipe matches the api-keys recipe that works fine.

Should this logic also include node[:instance_role] == 'solo', to also function for a small staging environment?

Anyone here have any luck with this recipe?

UPDATE AFTER SPEAKING W ENGINE YARD

@parhamr - you are correct. That was one problem. The second problem was an issue with the redis recipe:

Needed to change (this may be updated at this point) redis/templates/default/redis.monitrc.erb to:

check process redis-<%= @profile %>
with pidfile <%= @pidfile %>
  start program = "/usr/sbin/redis-server <%= @configfile %>"
  stop program = "/usr/bin/redis-cli -p <%= @port %> shutdown"
  group redis-util

The problem was that start program was looking at /usr/bin/ instead of /usr/sbin/.
