My apologies, I thought you were saying it starts but were unaware of
the exit code.
I'm now unsure... You could try run this:
puppet apply --verbose --debug --trace --summarize test.pp
where test.pp is the simplest form of your service as possible, and
see if you get anything useful, although I've just done that on a
CentOS system and it wasn't as helpful as I imagined (didn't blatantly
tell me the exit code as I hoped).
