Hauling out the big guns boils down to (for me):

strace -e trace=file -f puppet master --no-daemonize ... 2>&1 | grep ntp

That should eventually spit a few stat or open attempts that fail, when
the master tries to import the ntp module.

Thank you. Using strace shows that while the permissions were set
correctly on my /etc/puppet/modules tree, the directories didn't have
the "X" flag to allow browsing.

I find your understanding of "set correctly" disturbing ;p

Heh. The w and r flags and ownership were OK! Usually on my system directories are browseable by default, so I'm not sure why they weren't in this case.

That's why I originally asked for pastes of configs, manifests *and*
filesystem listings (not to the list preferably, use pastebin services).

OK, I will bear this in mind. While I'm new to Puppet, I've administered FreeRADIUS and been on their mailing list for years. Over there, they're very anti-pastebin, and prefer entire configs and debug logs (up to 1000+ lines) sent straight to the list as plaintext in the body of the message.

But it worked out, you just had to do a bit more walking.

Indeed. Thanks for your help, and have a nice day!


Cheers,
Felix
