Latest devstack with Fedora 18 does not work with Horizon

Asked by Kyle Mestery

For about the last week, I had seen issues with devstack on Fedora 18. This is with the Havana branches of OpenStack Horizon now. What I see is that with the stock devstack, horizon starts fine. But accessing Horizon from a remote machine yields the stock Fedora Apache page, and not Horizon.

After some digging, I found that by make the change below to devstack, it succesfully works. My question is, why does Ubuntu not need this? Is there some configuration default option in Fedora Apache which requires this? I can propose this patch upstream if people think this is appropriate as well.

Fedora 18 ships with Apache 2.4, and the syntax changed from 2.2. Ubuntu still ships Apache 2.2 I imagine and therefore doesn't encounter the problem yet.

I am not sure if Options +ExecCGI is needed. I believe only the fix for bug 1167066 which is already in mainline, is needed. Could you please verify?

Can you help with this problem?
