Hello all, I am trying to configure & install Bigtop 0.8.0 using the puppet scripts on AmazonLinux on EC2. Thus far, almost everything has worked besides one minor change I have made to the site.pp manifest. However, I am running into a problem, it seems that the services such as proxy server or namenode are not immediately starting. You can see the error below in the purple text related to namenode.

The problem here is that all other dependencies of namenode do not install (such as resource manager, etc). I am using the latest release of AmazonLinux (2014.09) and this has puppet 2.7.25-1. I am not sure what to do about this issue, has anyone else experienced something like this? Should I just move to puppet 3.x and only try to install out of the Bigtop trunk (0.9.0)?
