Chef stop and start service in sequence and would like to ask different procedure.

Step 1: framework bootstrap to jboss service

bash "bootstrap application" do
    code <<-EOF
    ant bootstrap
    EOF
end

Step 2: then start jboss

service "jboss" do
    action :start
end

Step 3: install application

bash "install application" do
    code <<-EOF
    ant install
    EOF
end

in between step 2 and 3, ant install returns error because jboss is not started yet. but successful on the 2nd run. obviously step 3 doesnt know if the jboss already started.

how to do this on chef?
