I just noticed something that might be relevant from your earlier
message, and I'll plan to investigate Monday and get back to you, but in
any case, if you'd like an interim fix, and are comfortable just running
puppetdb directly, you should be able to do this:

  lein uberjar

and then run puppetdb directly:

  java -cp target/puppetdb.jar clojure.main \
    -m puppetlabs.puppetdb.core services \
    -c your-config-file

Of course you might also want to add some jvm heap arguments, etc.

And unless the data's not very important, I'd suggest sticking with
checkouts of releases, i.e. "git checkout 5.2.2" (before you build the
uberjar) etc.

Hope this helps
