openstack-glance-registry start failed

edit

To fix the issue.

1. Go to this link(http://docs.openstack.org/developer/keystone/_modules/keystone/openstack/common/gettextutils.html) and copy the modified ‘gettextutils.py’ file.
   1. Take a backup of the existing gettextutils.py file as below cp /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/glance/openstack/common/gettextutils.py /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/glance/openstack/common/gettextutils.py.bak
2. Replace the file ‘gettextutils.py‘ with the one copied from step 1.
   1. Start the glance-registry service as below: $ service openstack-glance-registry start Note: If the above command fails with a syntax error, then probably you copied some unwanted characters while copying the modified gettextutils.py script in step 1. For example, the copied file contained some characters such as ‘[docs]‘. To fix the issue, open ‘gettextutils.py‘, search and remove those unwanted characters. Save the file and start the glance-registry service again.

In case, if the service failed to start, then lookout for the fresh error message in the log file. # tailf /var/log/glance/openstack-glance-registry-startup.log Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/glance-registry", line 6, in <module> from glance.cmd.registry import main File "/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/glance/cmd/__init__.py", line 17, in <module> gettextutils.install('glance', lazy=True) TypeError: install() got an unexpected keyword argument 'lazy' To fix the above error: $vim /usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/glance/cmd/__init__.py and lookout for the function ‘ gettextutils.install(‘glance’, lazy=True)‘ and replace it with the below one: gettextutils.install('glance') save the file and try starting the glance-registry service.
