Make sure that you get output from the puppetmaster for some things. It's easy to look at the wrong log if you are using passenger. I've seen a similar error problem when the puppetmaster is overloaded so the client times out. For me, this is when It gets all 50 clients ask for a catalog at the same time (don't ask).
