Tried the latest instructions as they are like, countless times, used the same ubuntu version server 12.04.02 lts from scratch, and I ALWAYS get an error during 'unit tests' and startmain.

~/swift/.unittests 1>1.out 2>2.out reports errors, here's the log: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwZ6oWiCB_x9eW5mdjFBZ21hU28/edit?usp=sharing

startmain's errors: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwZ6oWiCB_x9R205YjdJMk0wMVk/edit?usp=sharing something like ( Error trying to load config from /etc/swift/proxy-server.conf: root)

you can see the WHOLE VIDEO here: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwZ6oWiCB_x9SXcwYnNWSF9kWU0/edit?usp=sharing

I'm really sorry you're having trouble, thanks for the detailed description.

Here's the relevant section of the SAIO guide to your dilemma[1]:

Much of the configuration described in this guide requires escalated root privileges; however, we assume that administrator logs in an unprivileged user. Swift processes also run under a separate user and group, set by configuration option, and refered as <your-user-name>:<your-group-name>. The default user is swift, which may not exist on your system.

It seems like you setup a swift user ~18:50

But I noted in the screen shot that you configured and started services as root.

You can either

a) always use root:root when it says <your-user-name>:<your-group-name>

b) switch to the swift user starting in the "Getting the code"[2] section

More people use option b, so I'd recommend that.

Good Luck!

First of all, thank you very much for spending time, helping out and getting me further. I have opted for the easy route, all root:root, I know it might be insecure but it's just for me to develop a client against it. I'm still getting another new error now. look at this please: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwZ6oWiCB_x9azVYemJ5cjNxblU/edit?usp=sharing also in text format: Starting proxy-server...(/etc/swift/proxy-server.conf) Starting container-server...(/etc/swift/container-server/1.conf) Starting container-server...(/etc/swift/container-server/2.conf) Starting container-server...(/etc/swift/container-server/3.conf) Starting container-server...(/etc/swift/container-server/4.conf) Starting account-server...(/etc/swift/account-server/1.conf) Starting account-server...(/etc/swift/account-server/2.conf) Starting account-server...(/etc/swift/account-server/3.conf) Starting account-server...(/etc/swift/account-server/4.conf) Starting object-server...(/etc/swift/object-server/1.c

First of all, thank you for the time spend and help, here's the new error though: (I decided to REINSTALL ALL from scratch each time including the iso image because I want to have a FRESH test), I chose root:root, I don't care of security for my client tests , and it seems easier. Here's the image: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwZ6oWiCB_x9azVYemJ5cjNxblU/edit?usp=sharing Here's the actual text, if you want:
