I installed Openstack from the OpenStack Installation Guide for Ubuntu 12.04/14.04 (LTS) - icehouse but when I started creating the external network: neutron net-create ext-net --shared --router:external=True I got the error: Connection to neutron failed: [Errno 111] Connection refused

I sourced the file: source admin-openrc.sh

I checked the previous quiries about this issue and tried the solutions but did not work for me. I ensured that in my config files, the rabbit_host=my_controller

I am getting this result when executing the command: sudo service neutron-server status neutron-server stop/waiting

and the following command gives no output: iptables-save | grep neutron_server

What says /var/log/neutron/server.log ?

The log file has nothing in it.. Does that mean that neutron server isn't running? If so, how do I start it? Cause basic command to start the neutron server has already been executed. sudo service neutron-server start neutron-server start/running, process 32485

Check $service neutron-server status
start/running
and get back to reports I asked to reproduce:-
$ iptables-save | grep neutron_server
$ netstat -anpt | grep 9696

It got solved, the reason is that the /etc/neutron/neutron.conf has extra spaces ! The network was created when I removed the spaces.

actually .. the problem is with space before and after =. rather than XXX = XXX it should be XXX=XXX.

Hope it helps.
