This is coming from https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-9137 and was fixed by puppetlabs-mysql with

https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppetlabs-mysql/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#added-2

Use puppet4 functions-api puppetlabs/puppetlabs-mysql#1044 (juliantodt)

I've updated to the latest release of the mysql module, and it is now also fixed with Puppet Agent 5.5.7. Thanks for the insights in this Gist, helped a lot with finding the root cause :)

The puppetserver-side "fix" for me went out like yesterday via https://tickets.puppetlabs.com/browse/PUP-9270. The error in this gist was just eating the real error. With the release of 6.0.4 I now can see my real error (that being an old 3x function using some deprecated behavior that needed minor cleaning) and was able to fix it. See ticket for details.
