Not necessarily an issue but question

Does this work with ruby 1.9.3 and chef-solo?

I keep getting an error here and it could very well be chef-solo or something on my ec2 instance:

My guess is that Opsworks is not actually running Chef via ruby 1.9.3, as the error seems to be related to using 1.9.x style hashes. Perhaps you may want to try the latest 0.2.x series release on the 0.2.x branch? It should be compatible with ruby ~> 1.8.7.
