It looks like it should work. Is the master's log any more
illuminating than the client's?
Does it work if you remove "inherits tomcat::scripts"? In principle
that shouldn't be a problem, but perhaps there's a bug in that area.
Moreover, inheritance doesn't appear to be what you want anyway, for
the subclass is not overriding any of the superclass's resource
properties. It looks like you really want that class to "include
'tomcat::scripts'" instead, but even that can be omitted if, as
currently, tomcat::scripts::cleanlogs doesn't depend on anything in
tomcat::scripts.
