Puppet users - Feb 2013 - Another "function does not return a value" problem

Here''s the function:

module Puppet::Parser::Functions
  newfunction(:fact_to_array, :type => :rvalue) do |args|
    args[0].split('','')
  end
end

Here''s the class I''m trying to use it in:

class oms::all_config {
  file { ''/var/lib/oms/config'':
    source => ''puppet:///deployment/deployment'',
    recurse => true,
    purge => true,
    force => true,
    ignore => fact_to_array(''DIR_1,DIR_2,DIR_3''),
    require => Class[''oms::oms_directory''],
  }
}

Getting the following error when trying to run puppet agent --test on a 
remote agent:

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: 
Function ''fact_to_array'' does not return a value at 
/etc/puppet/modules/oms/manifests/init.pp:13 on node oms-2787

I''m out of ideas as to why is it not working. Will appreciate any help
on
this.
Thanks ahead

For some unknown reason it works after enabling PuppetDB.

I guess you restarted the master while doing this?

you have to restart it each time you change a function

Yes, that was the reason perhaps.
Thanks.
