Does the logging show up in the log files? I had a very similar issue recently, and found that the logging did not show up on stdout, but was logged in the Chef log file.

Subject: [chef] Re: Logging within a ruby_block
I can confirm that running chef-client with -l info or -l debug still does not produce the requested logs. I am pretty sure that I have to do somethint special to get logging inside a ruby_block to work

:info and :debug are suppressed by default, if you do ‘chef-client -l info’ do you see your log message?

I want to log stuff using chef log levels when inside a ruby_block. The BELOW DOES NOT WORK
ruby_block “ruby_block_thing” do
block do
foo = my_method
if foo.sucess?
Chef::Log.info("sucessfully ran my_method")
Chef::Log.debug("my_method said #{foo.response}")
end
end
action :run
end
Any know the “correct” way to log stuff within a ruby block. I am hoping that using puts is not the best answer.
As you can see here I want to output different thing based on different log level.
