title: Error: Could not find a suitable provider for cron
body: <p>From what I'm reading it seems cron is <a href="https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/latest/types/cron.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">built into Puppet</a>.</p>
  
  <pre><code>cron { 'apply puppet master config':
    command =&gt; 'puppet apply /etc/puppetlabs/puppet/master.pp',
    hour    =&gt; [ 12, 0 ],
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Yet when I try to run the above configuration I get the following error:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Error: Could not find a suitable provider for cron</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Why isn't Puppet using the built in cron type?</p>
