Thank you so much for posting the http://vimeo.com/39299140. I followed your video instruction, everything installed accordingly but I had an error when I was trying to access the Images and Snapshots in the OpenStack’s Dashboard. The errors are as follows:
Error: Unable to retrieve images.
Error: Unable to retrieve snapshots.
Also, under Object Store->Containers, I got this error:
error at /nova/containers/
Hi Kevin.
I have tried your install scipts. It works great for single node but for multi-node (one controller and one compute) fails script doesnt fail as such but always hit Remote error: NoMoreNetworks. I have made sure the network interfaces are configured correctly for public and private. I am using Qemu.
can you also delete line 64 in keystone-services.sh.. this is making -M flag to error. Also, in OSinstall.sh you may want to consider removing DB creation. It errors as well
Hi Kevin,
I installed Openstack with your video-tutorial.
Everything is fine up to the step, where i want to start an image. In the OpenStack-Dashboard it is shwon as “running” but when I open the vnc-view, there comes the message “disconnected from server”.
I tried some other images, too, without success.

You need to set up Swift to get the Containers working. I suggest you look at http://swift.openstack.org/development_saio.html as a good place to start.
Hi Kevin,
Looking forward to the book! I thought you might be interested in including a bit on custom-branding the Essex Dashboard I just posted: http://www.prestonlee.com/2012/05/09/how-to-custom-brand-the-openstack-horizon-dashboard/

Hi Preston,
Thanks for that – most useful. Cheers.

Please let me know if you need more ifnoramtion
BTW, I am using essex release of the scripts. Thanks again.

What parameters did you use on the command line to install the servers?
For controller: ./OSinstall -T controller -p eth2 -F 192.168.245.0/24 -f 10.1.0.0/16 -t demo -v qemu
For compute: ./OSinstall -T compute -p eth2 -C 192.168.245.142 -F 192.168.245.0/24 -f 10.1.0.0/16 -t demo -v qemu
There is one more bug in script as well.. line number 415 (CC_ADDR=””) that needs to be deleted out
I also think.. you need this line in controller instead of what is out there now. It works once I changed it to what is shown below.
nova-manage network create vmnet –fixed_range_v4=${VMNET} –network_size=${NETWORK_SIZE} –bridge_interface=${PRIVATE_INTERFACE}
can you also delete line 64 in keystone-services.sh.. this is making -M flag to error. Also, in OSinstall.sh you may want to consider removing DB creation. It errors as well
Hi Sir,
Kindly installing openstack..
and stuck on this issue :
Error: Unable to retrieve images.
Error: Unable to retrieve snapshots.
When accessing Horizon, but when running on CLI everything is fine
How to probe and fix it manually?
Thank you so much 😀
Btw, nice, elegant, and useful site 🙂

Do you have an idea, what the problem could be?
