Issue #16770 has been updated by Patrick Hemmer.
Ok, so I finally took the time to upgrade from 2.7 to 3.1, and I did find the
cause of this issue.
The cause is a bug in regards to the agent storing the catalog and fact cache.
It looks like the default caching type changed between 2.7 and 3.0, and both
catalogs and facts are cached by the agent in a local database. Since my system
does not have the ActiveRecord or ActiveSupport gems, puppet was failing when
trying to access the cache.
After adding the following entries to the `routes.yaml` file, everything
started working.
agent:
facts:
cache: yaml
catalog:
cache: json
Additionally the man page for `puppet.conf` states that
`catalog_cache_terminus` controls how the catalog is stored. This is incorrect.
Changing this parameter has absolutely no effect. `puppet agent --configprint
catalog_cache_terminus` always shows `store_configs`, even if I set it to
something else (like json). The only way to update the cache type was using
`routes.yaml`.

Two users on the mailing list reported the same error loading active record on
Telly: https://groups.google.com/d/topic/puppet-users/3tC0gYg9XA0/discussion
One is on EL6, the other Ubuntu 10.4
<pre>
Yesterday my puppetmaster and nodes got upgraded to puppet-3.0.0.
Since then, all puppet runs have been failing with this error:
Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on
SERVER: Could not autoload puppet/indirector/node/active_record:
uninitialized constant ActiveRecord
My colleague and I have put a few hours into trying to work out what's
wrong. rubygem-activerecord-2.1.1-2.el6.noarch is installed from the
puppetlabs RPM repo. We've reinstalled all components but made no progress.
