Execution expired usually means that an action a provider is carrying out
took too long to complete and Puppet bailed out as a result.  I recommend
running with tracing enabled and then dropping into a debugger right before
the execution expired exception is raised.  Once you're in a debugger you
could run the command manually and see if it is in fact taking a long time
(>30 seconds) to complete.

It may help to publish the code somewhere, ideally on Github, along with a
gist of the backtrace so we could all see exactly what's happening.

Hope this helps,
