Check permissions :-) The puppet master must be able to read the files and
the paths to get to them.
But, today I've beiin hit with this... after a 2.6.x to 2.7.x upgrade,

before. Removing and re-adding the class works for awhile, then it lost it
again. But, it's only happening on one node of 200+.
