OpenStack Dashboard (Horizon)

Openstack Dasboard login fails

Asked by Arminder Singh Girgla

I'm getting the error "Unexpected error: identity", while trying to login into the dashboard. I know the username and password is correct. I have picked on Repo from diablo-4 available at http://yum.griddynamics.net/yum/diablo-4/openstack/ and installed on CentOS 6.

openstack-compute-2.0a1-1.noarch
openstack-dashboard-1.0-0.20111116.1230.el6.noarch
openstack-glance-2011.3-0.20110825.996.1.el6.noarch

Any help on this would be highly appreciated.

That indicates you don't have your services registered properly with Keystone. This is likely the result of using old sample data, or not loading any service data into keystone. You need a service registered with keystone that has the service type "identity" (which is what keystone identifies itself as).

However, the error message there could be improved in horizon.

Thanks Gabriel for pointing me out in right direction and I totally agree that error message could be improved.

I had already given the following command:
$ sudo keystone-manage service add keystone identity "Keystone Identity Service"
SUCCESS: Service keystone created successfully.

But now since you pointed it out, I checked & when I try to dump the services table in sqlite db, it shows null for the rest of the fields; infact, can't find the type field there:
INSERT INTO "services" VALUES('keystone',NULL);

So I'll rather switch to mysql as backend and see how it goes.

Moved to MySQL as backend but still same bad luck.

Anyone with any other ideas. I have the service type identity in keystone.

I took a look at the actual code packaged in the .rpm file you linked to... that code is nothing like the Diablo release version of openstack-dashboard/horizon. I'm not sure when that got branched off, but it's simply not the right code.

I suggest starting with a clean copy of the stable/diablo horizon code and working from there.

Awesome fail on Launchpad's part to give me 500 error pages and still post the message 4 times. I win.

Can you help with this problem?
