service control - what am I doing wrong?

[JonY]

I put together a module and some files to control cassandra. When I change one of the dependent files in my module the cassandra service is stopped but not restarted. 

The service uses a std start/stop/status file and 'status' sets the appropriate exit code:

[root@cass1 security]# service cassandra status

Cassandra is running.

[root@cass1 security]# echo $?

0

[root@cass1 security]# service cassandra stop

Stopping Cassandra:                                        [  OK  ]

[root@cass1 security]# service cassandra status

Cassandra is stopped.

[root@cass1 security]# echo $?

1

Relevant line from module def:

User[ 'cassandra' ] -> Package[ 'nc' ] -> File[ '/etc/init.d/cassandra' ] -> File[ '/etc/security/limits.d/cassandra.conf' ] -> File[ '/etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf' ] ~> Service[ 'cassandra' ]

All the various bits are declared in the module. 

What did I miss?

Not sure, but I recommend you use Puppet's --debug option and carefully
retrace Puppet's steps.
