server_service failed to start #7

server_service failed to start because "sensu::redis" only installed redis but does not start it. "sensu::redis" uses chef-redis repo which only installed the package

Were you using the correct redis cookbook? https://github.com/miah/chef-redis

i didnt choose any specific cookbook, i left Vagrant/librarian-chef/chef-monitor/sensu-chef to decide for me. i think based on my os CentOS 6, it ended up running chef-redis/blob/master/recipes/server_package.rb which install redis but not start it.

i tested this using Ubuntu as well, it also gave me the same error.

Thank you, I will follow up w/ an redis cb fix.

sensu/sensu-chef now uses the Redis cookbook LWRP wrapper recipe, which starts the service.
