Hi

I just encountered the same issue today. Base on the cinder log, I tried to look for something wrong in "cinder.conf" and found there is no key assigned in [keystone_authtoken].

So I added must information just like the guide from ttp://docs.openstack.org/liberty/install-guide-rdo/cinder-controller-install.html

In /etc/cinder/cinder.conf

auth_uri = http://[keystone IP]:5000
auth_url = http://[keystone IP]:35357
auth_plugin = password
project_domain_id = default
user_domain_id = default
project_name = services
username = cinder
password = [cinder's password]

Hope this can help you...

I got it working by only adding - and after fixing this, then I could launch instances from new volumes.

auth_uri = http://localhost:5000/

This is probably the minimal change needed. But obviously, I would never have come up with it on my own, so credit goes to the previous posts.

Hi

As you will know I am experiencing the same issue as OP - this is not a solution yet - just steps I am taking to troubleshoot, and hopefully get to the bottom of this.

Tools used

1. tcpdump

   tcpdump -s 1024 -i any -tttt -vvvv -A port 8776

2. strace

   for i in $(ps aux | grep 'cinder-api' | grep -v 'grep' | awk '{print $2}' | tail -n +2);do strace -f -p $i -o /tmp/$i.log & done

Syntax and sample output to test "cinder quota-show" via curl (output may vary - however syntax should auto-retrieve/populate endpoint and auth token)

I've compared output between 2 hosts

- controller-A - Kilo * working *
vs. 
- controller-B - Liberty * non-working *

Both installed via RDO and running CentOS 7.x

strace has some interesting output - but what stood out was the many "(No such file or directory)" messages

Syntax to scrub output

grep -H -a -i 'no such'  /tmp/*.log  | perl -pe 's/.*\(\"(.*)\"\,.*/$1/g' | sort | uniq

Here's the output for comparison

Controller-A http://pastebin.com/vpCQ1gq5

Controller-B http://pastebin.com/zBvYWGKs

Notice the missing "chardet" "netrc" packages in Controller-B

If you are trying to perform openstack operations through CLI did you source the openrc file which contains the auth_url and the credentials required to authenticate against keystone? If you don't have those environment variables set you will get this issue. Try souring an openrc file in the below format.

Create and source the OpenStack RC file

Alternatively, you can create the PROJECT-openrc.sh file from scratch, if for some reason you cannot download the file from the dashboard.

In a text editor, create a file named PROJECT-openrc.sh file and add the following authentication information:

export OS_USERNAME=username
export OS_PASSWORD=password
export OS_TENANT_NAME=projectName
export OS_AUTH_URL=https://identityHost:portNumber/v2.0
# The following lines can be omitted
export OS_TENANT_ID=tenantIDString
export OS_REGION_NAME=regionName
export OS_CACERT=/path/to/cacertFile

On any shell from which you want to run OpenStack commands, source the PROJECT-openrc.sh file for the respective project. In this example, you source the admin-openrc.sh file for the admin project:

$ source admin-openrc.sh
