Cannot select version of HAProxy

[shortdudey123]

looks like you are missing install_type 'source' on the resource

[shortdudey123]

oh, nvm, i see it
You are telling it to install package so it ignores your other options
haproxy_install 'package'

[paulius005]

haproxy_install 'source' do
  source_version node[:haproxy][:source_version]
  source_url node[:haproxy][:source_url]
  source_checksum node[:haproxy][:source_checksum]
end

doing this seems to install the correct version, now just working out some kinks for starting it up

Still not sure why it would install 1.5.2 when running haproxy_install 'package'

[shortdudey123]

1.5.2 is probably the version thats available in the yum repo's available to the instance

[paulius005]

ah right.

this can be closed now.

Just a quick note for reference if anyone else runs into this issue.

directory '/var/lib/haproxy' do
  owner 'root'
  group 'root'
  mode '0777'
  action :create
end

had to create this folder to get stats to work properly with 1.7.5

@paulius005 glad to hear. you can probably store the stats socket somewhere else also.
