Issue #4409 has been updated by Yuri Arabadji.

You know what, I came across similar problem recently. This time not only I'm 
using custom types & providers, but exported resources, too.

Here's how the error looks like in 2.6.7:
    err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Resource type zenoss_host doesn't exist at 
/etc/puppet/development/modules/zenoss/manifests/init.pp:47 on node xxx
And in master's log:
    puppet-master[1639]: Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error 
ArgumentError: Invalid resource type zenoss_host at 
/etc/puppet/development/modules/zenoss/manifests/init.pp:38 on
    node xxx
Master's lib is empty:
    # tree  /var/lib/puppet/lib/
    /var/lib/puppet/lib/
    0 directories, 0 files

Here's the proposed solution:

* maintain $libdir/environments/$environment directory that corresponds to 
client's environment
* implement "resync on each manifest compile" feature that scans $modulepath 
for providers & types and sync's the files to the dir above
* create an option in config that allows toggling of "resync on each run" 
feature -- so that user can set it to "on" when developing and "off" when in 
production.

Current band-aid is to invoke this on each provider/type change:
    rsync -av --exclude .svn --exclude .git  
/etc/puppet/development/modules/*/lib/puppet/{type,provider} 
/var/lib/puppet/lib/puppet/

Hello,

I can't get plugins in modules to work.  I tried IRC and puppet-users  
(http://groups.google.com/group/puppet-users/browse_frm/thread/1fa5616448b1ffad)
 , all led to no help/solution :(.  This is blocking me to deploy puppet in our 
infrastructure.

err: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Puppet::Parser::AST::Resource failed with error ArgumentError: Invalid resource 
type vcsrepo at /etc/puppet/development/manifests/nodes.pp:37 on node 
puptest.ugent.be

I have attached several attachments that show my config.

thank you in advance
