This is happening on some of my clients. It'll happen about 1 out of 20

find, and this is all the output I'm seeing on the client:

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: end of file reached
Warning: Not using cache on failed catalog

Any guidance on how to get more details out of Puppet about what's going
wrong here? It's persistent, but again, doesn't happen 100% of the time.
And it's only happening on certain agents, so I'm pretty sure it's
related to a module somewhere that's doing something wrong, but for the
life of me, I can't suss out which module is causing the problem.

Are you using Webrick ? If so, there are versions of Puppet 3x that have issues with concurrent operation (more than one agent at the same time) that can cause all kinds of weird behavior - typically resulting in truncated streams.

Try latest 3.6, or 3.7. The best fix is to stop using Webrick in favor of Passenger. Webrick is really not for production use.
