Issue #5256 has been updated by Egon Kastelijn.

I sometimes experience the same problem.
I found out that restarting the Puppet Master solves the problem but is not 
needed.

A simple "touch site.pp" causes the Puppet Master to "wake up" and generate 
proper catalogs again.

Bug #5256: Ruby DSL changes require puppet master restart
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5256

Author: Nan Liu
Status: Accepted
Priority: High
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 2.7.x
Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2
Keywords: ruby, dsl
Branch: 


Unlike puppet manifests, changes to Ruby DSL require complete restart of puppet 
master to take effect. If you edit init.rb file after puppet master process the 
.rb file the agent will receive a class can not be found error:

     # vim /etc/puppet/modules/ntp/manifests/init.rb
     # puppet agent -t
     err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Could not find class ntp at /etc/puppet/manifests/site.pp:2 on node 
puppet.training

A restart resolves the problem:
     # service puppetmaster restart
     Stopping puppetmaster:                                     [  OK  ]
     Starting puppetmaster:                                     [  OK  ]
     # puppet agent -t
     ...
     notice: puppet.training
     notice: /Stage[main]/Ntp/Notify[hello]/message: defined 'message' as 
'puppet.training'
     notice: Finished catalog run in 0.76 seconds
