I have a module in /etc/puppet/modules/sheffield/manifests/autofs/net.pp cooking classes for kids which is trying to use the autofs::mount defined type. class sheffield::autofs::net { include ::autofs autofs::mount { '/net': map => '', options => '-hosts', } }
But when the client attempts to grab the catalog, I get the following error; Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid resource type autofs::mount at /etc/puppet/modules/sheffield/manifests/autofs/net.pp:7 on node rhel6test.shef.ac.uk
Any ideas? I thought maybe it was a problem with not being autoload the type as it has the same name (autofs) as a subclass in sheffield::autofs, so I tried renaming to sheffield::auto-fs and it made no difference.
I tried copying the mount.pp from /etc/puppet/autofs/manifests into /etc/puppet/sheffield/manifests/autofs/ and it did find the resource type, but didn't work because of a load of other missing dependencies in mount.pp (and obviously, that's not a nice solution to the problem).
It's not having a problem with the manifest you've provided, it's not finding a defined type at autofs::mount . Can you show us what that defined type (and its related file structure) looks like? This seems like a relative name lookup problem in 2.7 - unfortunately, the solution to that would be to either upgrade to 3 or change the name collision; are you certain there was no change in behavior under a different name? –  Shane Madden ♦ May 29 '13 at 6:38     
Did you also rename the directory /etc/puppet/modules/sheffield/manifests/autofs/ to auto-fs when you tried renaming sheffield::autofs ? –  Mikko Jul 23 '13 at 14:23
