Hello folks,

I have met problem during configuration of Swift as a backend storage service for Glance. I have configured Glance according to Red Hat Instalation Guide. Now when I am trying to upload image using glance image-create command following message occures:

[root@openstack182 ~]# glance image-create --name="Cirros 0.3.1" --disk-format=qcow2 --container-format bare < /tmp/images/cirros-0.3.1-x86_64-disk.img 
Request returned failure status.
500 Internal Server Error
The server has either erred or is incapable of performing the requested operation.
    (HTTP 500)

So the problem is with Swift server. Although Swift is able to create containers and upload files to them using swift upload command:

[root@openstack182 ~]# swift upload c4 data3.file 
data3.file
[root@openstack182 ~]# swift list
c1
c2
c3
c4
[root@openstack182 ~]# swift list c4
data3.file

Glance also works well if the default_store parameter is set to file.

After attempting to upload image to swift's container Glance API logs shows there is some problem with authentication:

[root@openstack182 ~]# glance image-create --name="Cirros 0.3.1" --disk-format=qcow2 --container-format bare < /tmp/images/cirros-0.3.1-x86_64-disk.img 
Request returned failure status.
500 Internal Server Error
The server has either erred or is incapable of performing the requested operation.
    (HTTP 500)
