Issue #5437 has been updated by Jacob Helwig.
So, the behavior that Nick L., and I are able to reproduce is the following:
When an agent checks in and the `site.pp` has a syntax error, the master
reports the following
err: Could not parse for environment production: Syntax error at 'foo';
expected '}' at /home/jhelwig/work/manifests/site.pp:1 on node foo
err: Could not parse for environment production: Syntax error at 'foo';
expected '}' at /home/jhelwig/work/manifests/site.pp:1 on node foo
and the agent reports the following
err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER:
Could not parse for environment production: Syntax error at 'foo'; expected '}'
at /home/jhelwig/work/manifests/site.pp:1 on node foo
When the agent connects a second time while the `site.pp` is still cached by
the master, neither the agent, nor the master report any compilation errors.
Touching the `site.pp` causes the master to report the doubled syntax error
message, and the agent to show the syntax error again with the behavior already
described above.

Bug #5437: Manifest errors not reported to clients in 2.6.2
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5437
Author: Ryan Steele
Status: Accepted
Priority: High
Assignee: Jacob Helwig
Category: error reporting
Target version: 2.6.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2
Keywords: errors passenger 2.6.2
Branch:
As a preface, we run Ubuntu Server on the amd64 architecture, and use Passenger
server model. After upgrading to 2.6.2, it seems manifest errors are no longer
reported to clients. For example, this is a catalog run when a typo was made
in a manifest:
<pre>
root@host:~# puppetd --test --noop
info: Retrieving plugin
info: Loading facts in fai_is_running
info: Loading facts in ipaddress_lan
info: Loading facts in nssldap_ignoreusers
info: Loading facts in fai_is_running
info: Loading facts in ipaddress_lan
info: Loading facts in nssldap_ignoreusers
info: Caching catalog for host.mydomain.com
info: Applying configuration version '1291228811'
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.01 seconds
</pre>
Running with --debug, --no-usecacheonfailure, and --ignorecache made no
difference and yielded no clues. It was only after examining the logs on the
Puppetmaster that I was able to ascertain the problem:
<pre>
Could not render to pson: Could not parse for environment production: Syntax
error at 'or'; expected ')' at /etc/puppet/manifests/services/openldap.pp:52
</pre>
This worked with the previous release, so I'm guessing it's a new regression,
though I'm not sure if it's a problem with Puppet or Passenger.
