OpenStack Identity (keystone)

New install issues keystone wont start

Asked by Im Root

I installed keystone per instructions but it won't start.
- downloaded it
- unzipped
- python setup.py install (no errors)
- cd to the keystone bin directory.

# ./keystone
ERROR: Unable to load keystone-legacy-auth from configuration file /software/keystone/openstack-keystone-61148fb/etc/keystone.conf.
Got: ImportError('No module named passlib.hash',)

The keystone.conf file has not been changed from default.

Install pip e.g.
apt-get install python-pip

And then
pip install passlib

I solved this by reinitializing the who;le machine and installed XCP instead of Openstack.
Apparently pip is garbage that tries to attach to Twitter of all things.
No Openstack, no Keystone, no pip, no Ubuntu, no problems......

This worked for me to get the services started, but then I got a database error when running keystone-manage.

apt-get install python-pip
pip install passlib
/bin/keystone

I was running RHEL 6 not Ubuntu. The apt-get command doesn't really work well on RHEL. This is prime example how the whole Openstack system and it's peripheral modules are too Ubuntu-centric and not RHEL friendly.
As a followup, I have dozens of VMs now up and running very well on the XCP platform. It was amazingly easy and fast to set up. I did give Openstack a try but unfortunately it's still half-baked and was a complete waste of my time.
