Hi all,

At this moment I encounter a problem when I try to boot from a snapshot. I already created a bootable cinder volume. When i execute the following command an error occurs:

openstack server create --flavor m1.small --key-name backup_test2 --volume 2b207ca5-e141-462c-acd6-af30bfa7b433 --nic net-id=63420b48-c310-47da-aca7-7b0a0e0e9e5c --security-group default backup_test2

The errormessage:

Unexpected API Error. Please report this at http://bugs.launchpad.net/nova/ and attach the Nova API log if possible. (HTTP 500) (Request-ID: req-744912c2-e81f-459d-b720-3bee52fc8592)

This is not really informative, but the nova-api.log log shows:
