Issue #20077 has been updated by Charlie Sharpsteen.

Category set to modules
Status changed from Unreviewed to Needs More Information
Assignee set to James Patterson

Possibly a dupe of #16568---but it seems like there may be more than one issue 
at play there. The first type I've been able to identify is related to commit 
[242692e](https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/commit/242692e) where the Puppet 
master will cache missing classes and skip looking for those classes on 
subsequent runs. So, if you were moving modules or manifests around and a 
Puppet run happened to execute in the middle of that process then some classes 
will be flagged as missing and will remain so until the master is restarted.

Or, this could be something different---a `--trace` log from the master could 
help us narrow it down.

Bug #20077: Could not find declared class
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/20077#change-89155

* Author: James Patterson
* Status: Needs More Information
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: James Patterson
* Category: modules
* Target version: 
* Affected Puppet version: 3.1.1
* Keywords: 
* Branch: 
----------------------------------------
We sometimes see the error below on the puppet master and the puppet node under 
the following circumstances:
* We have edited a class on the puppet master
* We restart puppet on a puppet node very shortly after

The error is:

    Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Could not 
find declared class XXX at /etc/puppet/manifests/node/NODENAME.pp on node 
NODENAME

Where XXX is a class name that exists.

Important is that the XXX class name is not the class we have just edited: it's 
like the editing of the class is causing some kind of re-read of all classes by 
the puppet module, and that during the re-read these errors are returned. i.e. 
a race condition.

Re-starting puppet on the puppet node a second time will work fine, and not 
show any errors.

Puppet 3.1.1. Reporting here in case this a dupe. Will attach logs if not a 
dupe, just let me know what you need.
