Are you running puppetd as root / via sudo?

Can root "touch /var/lib/puppet/state/puppetdlock"?  Alternatively,
can root "/usr/sbin/puppetd --disable"?

Are all the directories in the path /var/lib/puppet/state traversible
by root?

Is SELinux running in enforcing mode?

Is the filesystem mounted read-write?
