First off, it's unclear on which machine you made those changes. Since you
are using the agent, the manifests that are effective are those on the
machine that serves as master. That can be the same machine on which you
are running the agent, but typically it is not.
Secondly, a class named "user" should be defined in a manifest file <puppet
base>/modules/user/manifests/init.pp. It appear that you are attempting to
put yours in <puppet base>/manifests/init.pp. Under some circumstances
that might nevertheless work, but you should get started on the right foot
to avoid making a mess that you will later need to clean up.
Note: I'm assuming that /etc/puppetlabs/puppet is the correct Puppet base
directory (confdir) for your installation. That's one of the usual
choices, but not the default.

I suppose you are trying to point out that the log does not mention the
specified user, but is the user in fact present? At default verbosity, the
agent does not report about resources that are already in the correct state.
If the agent is running in daemon mode, then it might have applied your
config change between when you saved your manifest changes on the master,
and when you ran the agent manually. Alternatively, if you created the
user by some other means, or if you previously ran the agent manually, then
that user may have been created. The agent will emit information about
*all* managed resources if you add the --debug option to your command.
If the debug output does not mention your user resource then it follows
that you're not working with the manifests that the master is relying on.
In that case, you might be editing manifests on the agent (and the master
is a different machine).
